Tara Mackey, who has a science background in epigenetics, left a coveted position at Weill Cornell Medical College in 2011 to travel to California to explore natural healing, yoga and meditation. That same year she began utilizing holistic techniques to heal her chronic illnesses, going cold turkey off of fourteen daily medications, and healing herself naturally. She has been Rx-drug free for over a decade and has been on a conscious quest to move humanity in a more sustainable, healthy, and holistic direction ever since.

Genetix was born simply: Tara shared a DIY blog post about a natural breast enhancement oil that she invented for herself. She shared the one-of-a-kind recipe, and her impressive before and after photos. After just three months of use, Mackey had gained two cup sizes!

Readers began to use this magic solution on themselves, and e-mails poured in that said: not only did the oil work, but that if Tara made the serum available as a product, they’d buy it!

And buy it they have! A handful of years, thousands of testimonials, and hundreds of before and after photos later, and we can confidently say that Mackey’s magic oil works on not just her, but any women who earnestly tries it!

Since then, Tara has released other organic creations based on struggles she’s had as a woman: whether it be hormonal acne, nursing support or a belly oil she invented during her pregnancy.

Mackey is now the founder and CEO of The Organic Life, a successful holistic and sustainable living platform, and is a widely recognized activist with a tribe of over 1 million followers on her blog and social media. She is the #1 best-selling author of Cured by Nature and WILD Habits. Tara has recently launched her own original music, and taken her motivational speaking and music career worldwide. She has been a featured guest at many events, podcasts, blogs, TV, news and radio shows.

Mackey was named “an accomplished musician” by Forbes and “a powerful voice in the smart, sexy, sustainable movement” by Coco Eco Magazine. Tara’s been recognized with numerous awards and nominations for her activism and entrepreneurship by giants like Oprah Magazine, Teen Vogue, Women’s Health, ABC, CBS, the United States Senate and many more. She resides in San Diego, California with her son, Z.
