Healing is your birthright
Namaste, I’m Tiffany
I have such a deep love and passion for wanting to help others that I'd be selfish to keep all of this goodness to myself! I am an HSS, highly sensitive soul with a strong intuition and gift for making others feel safe. As a child I always knew I wanted to be a teacher when I grew up. I have always taken pride in cultivating feelings of happiness and comfort within everyone around me. I was very athletic growing up, gymnastic being my first love! Then becoming a 2nd degree black belt after 10 years in karate.
I appeared to be very healthy, however as I got older I suffered through many years of PAIN starting in my early 20's: chronic headaches, chest pain, asthma, allergies, digestive issues, hair loss, fatigue, anxiety, lack of motivation, emotional eating and more (as if that weren't enough, right!)
By age 37, I was diagnosed with a rare condition of arthritis that I was told was incurable. The doctors were at a loss for a solution and told me there was nothing they could do. So they sent me on my way with a lifetime prescription of pain medication. I lived this way for years with no hope for a way out and I felt defeated. I found the process of symptom treating to be more exhausting than it was helpful. I felt like traditional Western medicine had failed me.
All I wanted was for someone to fix me.
It wasn't until my unhealthy behaviors and lifestyle habits caught up to me that I reached a major turning point in my life. As a single mom with my oldest son hustling and working a full time corporate job to make ends meet, I was completely burnt out and I knew I had to do something different. I began to take matters into my own hands. I changed my diet and incorporated more exercise in an effort to relieve my symptoms without medication but that just wasn’t enough, I still felt “sick” all the time. I realized I needed to approach my healing on a deeper level. Feeling frustrated with our traditional medical system, I knew I needed to take responsibility for my own health and look beneath the surface of my symptoms for the underlying cause of my health conditions.
It was in that moment I realized I had two choices:
1. I could settle for what the doctors told me and get by on pain meds for the rest of my life,
living with what felt like a life sentence.
OR...
2. I could see this as a blessing in disguise and a wake up call to start taking better care of myself.
So I chose ME and began to take charge of my own well-being and healing.
I refused to settle for a diagnosis.
Instead I chose to embrace a new way of thinking and living.
I turned inward to God for divine guidance and direction to find that is where the magic had been all along!
My diagnosis is not my destiny.
I took my healing journey even deeper and realized that unresolved emotions and trauma were at the root of my suffering. Trauma lives in the body and when left unhealed, it will manifest as physical and mental dis-ease. It will ripple out into all areas of your life and hinder your success. The good news is that when we can address these core wounds and nurture them, healing happens! It is always there within us, all we have to do is realign ourselves with it by meeting our unmet needs. I tapped into the power and unexpressed potential that had been stored in my pain all along. I had a choice to either stay at war with my body and accept this as a life-long sentence or choose to listen to my body and discover my truth.
~ I chose TRUTH ~
As a result, my passion to help others and become a Trauma-Informed Emotional Care Coach unfolded.
I realized that I have a spiritual calling to use my experience to inspire others to heal themselves just as I have. Sharing an awareness of how powerful the mind-body connection truly is.
I've discovered how to turn my pain into my power ...YOU can too!
My life has been so enriched since I made the decision to come out of hiding and start living with purpose. Embracing a holistic approach, working from the bottom up, making SELF-CARE my #1 priority. Making my health a priority has allowed me to better serve others!
My pain has been my greatest gift, a pathway to my divine purpose and my body’s way of getting my attention by drawing me deeper into myself.
This experience inspired me to create...
