About Tara

 Hi, reader. Welcome to my page. 

I’m Tara Nurin, an award-winning  journalist, author, and workplace wellbeing trainer in the food/beverage  and hospitality industry. I teach employees to cultivate holistic  health and their employers to shift their cultures. 

What’s the goal? 

To boost career and personal longevity at the individual level while  generating higher profits and retention across the organization. You know that hospitality workers suffer many of the worst health outcomes in the country, right? But did you know that the American hospitality  industry turns over three/quarters of its workforce every year??* And that taprooms, bars, restaurants and hotels pay more than $6,000 to  replace one “typical” front-line wage-earner?*

That’s why forward-thinking food & beverage professionals are turning  toward workplace solutions like mine. 

Whether you’re starting up,  expanding, facing a problem, tuning your sails to current economic  headwinds, or just want to take care of your team (and yourself!)  emotionally and physically, you can’t afford to lose your top talent.  

Email or call me to talk about how we can replenish and retain your most  important asset: your employees.
