Today on Small Changes Big Shifts we have Tammy Fadler. Tammy is a Speaker, Investor, Entrepreneur, Developer, and author of the best selling memoir Finding the Pearl. Tammy Fadler's origins guide her philosophy to this day. Born in Vietnam and the oldest of 12 children, she worked in food service for the U.S. Army for the six years before the American military pullout in 1973. Without the U.S. presence, security and economic stability were severely compromised; Fadler worried for her family's safety. She left for America with the thought that, "if my family is to leave for a better place, I'm going to have to make it happen."
