Small messages can create big connection wins. My guest Tammy J. Cohen discovered this truth by sending short, heart-centered texts to her adult sons, a practice that rebuilt trust at home and later inspired her book, Text Messages to My Sons.

In our conversation, Tammy shares how simple daily actions translate into stronger family bonds, clearer brand messaging, and more authentic networking. You’ll hear why meeting people where they are, writing like a human, and practicing gratitude can transform not just your communication but the relationships that matter most.

Highlights:

The Power of Daily Texts - Hear how Tammy’s short, love-filled messages reshaped her connection with her sons and gave them confidence without expectation of reply.

Meeting People Where They Are - Learn why your audience’s preferred channel matters more than your own comfort zone.

Owning Your Brand - Discover why Tammy says, “You’re the brand,” and how integrity and accountability are the foundation of trust.

Networking with Intention - Explore Tammy’s Women Beyond the Table community and how real curiosity can turn strangers into allies.

Gratitude as a Practice - Find out how 10 minutes of gratitude and reflection can reframe your voice, presence, and energy.
