TANYA HUGGINS


Tenacious Tanya has been through many trials in life, as we all have, and yet, she remains steadfast and patient. Deeply patient. Whether as a landlord teaching kitchen skills and communication skills or as a therapist for the mentally ill helping clients to obtain a job, Tanya exudes motherly charm. How do humans stay as kind and generous as she does on a consistent basis? HOW?!?

Personally, Tanya has always been there for me. IS always there for me—emotionally as well as physically. Celebrating life’s ups, such as acceptance into graduate school, or cheering me up during the lows, such as driving a long distance to walk around town with me so I didn’t feel so alone during the pandemic. Tanya and I met when she had a room for rent available and allowed my sweet, aging Holly dog and I to board. Quickly, she became like a mother to me offering sage advice and ensuring I always felt comfortable.

Through the years, our bond flexes with the shape of our lives. Mainly, mine since I moved back and forth to the Mountain West a few times. Depending on our needs, hopes, and dreams we share life updates, road trips, adventures tiny and tremendous, and most importantly time together, especially walking or hiking her good boy, Max, and practicing our photography skills. We created code names for our special bond that feels simultaneously mother/daughter and sisterly/best friends. I am forever changed by her willingness to stand in as the Mum I always wanted (needed!) and will be forever grateful, appreciative, and indebted.

Tanya teaches me so much about life and how to relish the small moments that matter while shaking off the ones that don’t. As a way of thanking her and hopefully paying tribute, I want to share her wonderfulness with you! Below I share Tanya’s bio from my Inspirations page where you can find a plethora of humans that offer the world their amazing talents and knowledge. A newsletter per month will spotlight one of these incredible souls that I’m lucky to call friend.
