2025 Women Leading Travel & Hospitality Summit: Tamara Turner, Silver Spoon Desserts

Tamara Turner, founder and CEO of Silver Spoon Desserts, took the stage at the 2025 Women Leading Travel & Hospitality Summit, held June 9-11 in Atlanta.

Tamara inspires you to step into your power, embrace your potential, and lead with courage, action and heart.

Live. Life is the richest, most delicious cake on earth. Add your own silver spoon, especially when there are none to be found. The silver spoon, the opportunity, the promise, the hope, has always been inside you. It takes courage to see the silver spoon. Courage to create, to make a difference, to lend a hand, and to believe in yourself when no one else does. Then, take action. Connect with people, share your dream, and live your values. Turn vision into reality by doing the work: make your lists, then check them off. Bring kindness with you. Rooted in love, kindness lights the way in a dark world. Put in 100 percent effort. Be all in. Advocate for yourself and take remarkable responsibility for your journey. Finally, embrace success with grace. Be humble, grateful and generous. Share what you achieve, give credit to others, and always give with love. This is how you live, lead and inspire — one courageous, kind, and purposeful step at a time.
