Her quest began with herself over 30 years ago.

Transcendental Meditation led Tazim to become a TM-Sidha (an advanced practitioner) in 2006, which catapulted her into going even deeper and learning to transcend the many layers of life.
After living in Canada for nine years, Tazim returned to Kenya a decade ago and began carving her own path with unique methodologies that challenge people to live their best lives possible.
