Tara Mackey is the founder and CEO of The Organic Life, a successful holistic and sustainable living platform, and is a widely recognized social media personality. She founded the organic beauty company Genetix Skincare and is the #1 best-selling author of Cured by Nature and WILD Habits.

Tara has quite a story. She was born with drugs in her body, and her mother overdosed in front of her time and time again before Tara was even four years old. She was taken in by her grandparents, and lived with them, still experiencing the emotional rollercoaster of codependency and trauma that came with her mother's addiction and her coming and going in and out of her life. At age 13, Tara was taken to a psychiatrist for an "evaluation" that lasted about 5 minutes, and resulted in a prescription for a drug called "Lithium". This was just the beginning of Tara's life in a haze of pharmaceutical pills: by age 24, she was taking 14 different prescription drugs and had reached the point of suicide.

Thankfully, Tara survived. She is here now to tell you the story of how she successfully quit all drugs, how she healed her chronic illnesses, and what helped her change her habits and her lifestyle. Her experiences and methods are so powerful that she teaches this "WILD Method" to people across the world who want to heal from the inside out, find happiness, and discover their true selves.
