From Colombia to the UK; Erika Tamayo's Journey of Resilience and Entrepreneurship and the Inspiring Story of Hermosa Protein

When Life Gives You Lemons

Erika Tamayo is the CEO and founder of Hermosa, a revolutionary protein powder brand. Erika was born in Columbia and despite having a difficult start in life, finally found the courage to leave. She travelled to Europe as a single mum to attempt a fresh start. Her journey from Columbia to Spain and then to the UK and how she propelled up the ranks in the working world to finally found her own business is nothing short of inspirational.

In this episode, Erika opens up about her tumultuous childhood, growing up in a nomadic family amidst the dangers of Colombia, and how those experiences shaped her resilience and adaptability. She recounts her early life, her marriage to a controlling partner, and the pivotal moment that led her to reclaim her independence.

After moving to Spain and navigating the complexities of motherhood and work, Erika eventually found her way to the UK, where she thrived in the corporate world. Her passion for entrepreneurship led her to co-found Hermosa, a protein powder that prioritises taste and quality, filling a gap in the market for health-conscious consumers.

Join us as Erika shares her powerful story of overcoming adversity, the importance of mindset, and how she turned her dreams into reality.
