Greetings! I’m Tamara, Chief Imaginator at Imaginibbles. My story is simple yet familiar….and involves a ladder.
After seventeen years of climbing the corporate ladder and even getting to the top I realized that my ladder was on the wrong wall…oops. How did I end up on the wrong wall? I spent many years going up the same ladder a few rungs at a time, jumping off here and there to do my own thing and then getting back on. Some of my entrepreneurial ventures were awesomely successful while others were total bombs. Either way I learned a lot. When back on the brand and innovation consulting ladder, I lent my innovative spirit and idea tinkering nature to international brands such as Kraft, Pepsi, Clorox, General Mills and Procter and Gamble. Eventually I was being groomed to take over as president of a multi-million dollar consulting firm. And no, I wasn’t thrilled.
The view from the top was eye-opening. First, I looked around at my colleagues, clients and friends and saw something I’d never seem before. I saw a group of people that had shoved their creative side in a drawer for so long that they couldn’t figure out how to unleash it. I think we all know what that feels like!
The second view from the top was that my ladder was leaning against the wrong wall. Holy crap, my ladder was on the wrong wall! Then I looked across the room and there was this other wall that had my picture painted on it. I jumped, threw the ladder under my arm like a football and ran for it.
And Imaginibbles was born. I’m loud and passionate about helping individuals, organizations, communities and our world transform their lives by accessing their creative potential and imaginative spirit. We all have it and we all deserve the life we desire. Our products, apparel, workshops and tools are bite-sized exercises and nutritious fuel to help you strengthen and harness your innovative mind. It’s all about dreaming big and dreaming often, something the imaginative mind loooovvvvessss to do!
As a mom, wife, dog owner and citizen of this world I believe that there is a better way to do business and that is at the foundation of Imaginibbles. We consider ourselves a for-benefit company. Scooby style “durh?” It means that we balance making profit and doing good in the world. We want to make it one big conversation and how we do business every day. That is why we are committed to the Dream Big Promise, giving women and children in need access to the basics of life, dignity and hope. We do this by partnering with LifeStraw®, an example of how truly innovative thinking can change the world.

You can wear apparel that makes you think differently, buy some quirky tools for your imagination toolbox, listen to a wacky creative webinars and of course, my musings and provide opportunity to others – all with a click of the mouse. No matter what you do remember to dream big, dream often and think sideways!
