wheat symbolizes deep roots, growth, provision + refining process. as it's crushed before it can nourish others, healing often comes through hardship. it reflects my own journey w/Abba Father, the hope of restoration, purpose + His harvest. finding healing after the crushing. honest to raw: authentic + rooted in Truth
honest to raw honors the Sabbath on the 7th day of the week (Saturday). To protect time for rest, worship, family + renewal, I am off of all communications on that day. Messages received during this time will be returned the next office hour day. Thank you for respecting these boundaries as I strive to serve each client from a healthy, grounded + faith-led place.

Hi, I'm Tammy René,
I'm the founder of honest to raw, a faith-led coaching practice rooted in biblical Truth, authentic connection + the belief that one honest conversation can cultivate the breakthrough you've been searching for.
Long before I became a coach, I was simply someone who loved people.
As a little girl, I discovered a love for writing + poetry. Words became a way to process life, express hope + encourage others. That passion has remained with me ever since + continues to shape how I serve today as a writer, speaker + coach.
Over the years, Abba Father has gently cultivated my heart through many different seasons. Following my first divorce, I had the opportunity to serve on mission trips to Haiti, where my perspective, + my heart, were forever changed. I later volunteered in outreach efforts for women impacted by human trafficking in Dallas + Detroit + had the privilege of speaking at a safe house in Detroit in 2015.
No matter where life took me… whether living in Texas, Oregon, North Carolina, or Michigan… I found myself inviting women to coffee, listening to their stories, building meaningful friendships + creating space for honest conversations. Looking back, I can see that Abba was preparing me for this calling long before I recognized it.
My own journey has also been one of deep refinement. Through broken + abusive relationships, divorce, wounded identity, struggles with self-worth + seasons of hidden healing, Abba faithfully restored what I thought had been lost. He taught me that growth often begins beneath the surface, where roots grow deep before the harvest is ever seen.
As I continued investing in my own healing + completing multiple coaching programs, what began as personal restoration became a calling to walk alongside other women.
Today, I help women move from survival mode into healing, restored identity + purpose through biblical Truth. My heart is to create a safe place where women feel seen, heard, encouraged + equipped to move forward with clarity, confidence + hope.
The wheat in my logo is a reminder of that journey. Years before Honest to Raw became a coaching ministry, Abba placed two simple words on my heart: His Harvest. I didn't fully understand them then, but today they remind me that every season of planting, waiting, pruning + refining has purpose. Even the hidden seasons are preparing us for the work He has planned.
If you've found your way here, I want you to know this:
Your story isn't over. Nothing you've walked through has been wasted.
And it would be an honor to walk alongside you as you discover the healing, freedom + purpose Abba has for your life.
I set aside two Fridays each month to meet women locally. Spots are limited + by reservation. Fill out your name, email, what city you're in + what day you're available, either the 2nd or the 4th Friday of the month.
Metro Detroit, MI, USA
Treat me to a tea at one of my fav tea/coffee shops + let's have an honest-to-raw conversation. If you'd like, I'll share a journal prompt for you to reflect on afterward. Once your reservation is confirmed, I'll send you the location + details.
