Beyonce's Internet! Healing the Need to Be Judgmental Feb 14, 2023

I know you might think I am not taking my own advice with this episode but just listen, Linda! I was so hurt by some of the commentary on social media that I felt compelled to drop an episode, reminding us of who we were, where we've come from and how we need to be when in community with one another.
Growth can sometimes allow us to forget our journey and when we forget where we've come from, we find it easy to judge those who are sitting in seats we used to occupy. Maybe we never occupied those seats so we don't understand the view. Whatever the reason, humility, compassion and grace are potent ways of being!
In this episode, I talk about what it's like to truly heal and grow and how we can be better to others as we are being kind to ourselves. I share tips on how I use my growth to navigate long-term relationships and offer tips on how you can do the same.
I truly hope you'll find value in this episode and if you do, I hope you will share it! As always, subscribe and leave a review and if you're in ATL , feel fee to check out my juice company, G Ann's Juices serving Cobb, Hiram and Fulton. Our website is www.gannsjuices.com
I love you all so much!

What Will You Do With What You've Been Given? Feb 07, 2023

Now I won't get religious on you BUT there are some things God has placed in you that we need you to get on the outside. Sometimes this can be hard because trauma is unkind. Trauma can have you feeling stuck. Trauma can have you talking to yourself crazy and it can even have you in a space where you're struggling to show up as the person you know you are capable of being.
Dr. Raquel Martin defines trauma as anything that overwhelms the body's ability to cope. For me, trauma was my divorce, the loss of my mother, strain in familial relationships, the loss of friendships, losing jobs, dealing with workplace trauma and so many things. I have been through so much but I made up in my mind I would not allow myself to look like what I've been through and the rest was history.
As I am healing, I feel stronger for having survived all the things and for persevering. I've reconnected with my strength and I feel more grounded than I ever have in purpose. I want this for you also. Take a listen to this episode and do me a favor...at the end there's an assignment. Will you complete it? Will you tap into your gifts and show your trauma it didn't stop you? I know you have it in you and I would never discount who you are based on what you've gone through.
Share this episode, leave a review if you haven't already and don't forget to subscribe. Also, if you're in ATL, tap in to my cold-pressed juice company, G Ann's juices, at www.gannsjuices.com to get started on healing your health and wellness sh*t!
I am rooting for you always!

Just Take the First Step! Jan 31, 2023

Sometimes we struggle to find our purpose. Sometimes we just want to make a difference and we want to live in our zone of genius but we don't know how.
In this episode, I talk a little bit about what it looks like to find your way into your purpose. Consider this a wellness check in and a reminder to just take your first step and not allow your purpose to die down.
This episode also celebrates the launch of G Ann's Juices, my latest wellness brand, offering cold-pressed juices in Smyrna, GA. Insert excitement! You can follow the brand on IG at G_anns_juices. I will eventually get a TikTok but for now you can continue to follow me at Tiffan_e_speaks.
I love you all and we will speak soon!

Healing What May Be a Mediocre Mindset Jan 24, 2023

Sometimes showing up is enough, especially when it's all we have to give. But sometimes we have more we can offer ourselves and have simply gotten used to giving less and not being challenged, leaving us frustrated when it's not enough to meet our goals. Extraordinary results requires extraordinary effort and the people who truly love us will often encourage us to push past our limit to aspire towards greatness, IF they can do so without meeting our wrath.
I am most certainly guilty of becoming defensive when I've been pushed in certain situations. Perhaps it is the fact that I know the person is right and I feel guilty. I have been guilty of making up stories about their intention and drawing conclusions about their own effort to excuse the effort I wasn't giving in situations. You know...some of the games we play to be right.
Healing a mediocre mindset requires allowing ourselves to acknowledge many things can be true. It's accepting that you can be doing better than you were doing and you still have more to do. It's coming to grips with the fact that mediocre effort will only yield mediocre results and we cannot be mad when we don't earn a trophy we didn't compete for!
Because of hubby challenging me, I am pushing myself a bit more these days as I work towards developing a new personal best. May this episode support you in doing the same!
With Love,
Tiff

Success Begins With a Mindset- Will You Heal the Way You Think? Jan 17, 2023

Heal Sh*t family...what's good? Welcome to 2023! Our year of possibility, hope, opportunities and growth. I pray your year has started with a whole lot of yes', you've been approved, you've been accepted and all the things your heart desires. Y'all, I am excited to be on this journey with you.
As I jump into 2023, I am preparing myself for all of the blessings I've seen in my dreams and visions. I am opening my heart for abundance and I am expecting great things. I chose two words to kick off my year- discipline and consistency, and I have made a vow to myself to be disciplined and consistent in all that I do. I recognize success is truly a mindset and if I intend to meet my goals, I will have to get my mind right and keep my mind fixed on the desires of my heart.
Have you prepared your mind for the life you desire to create? If not, this episode is for you. Even if you have, this episode will affirm your work and encourage you to keep going. Your mindset is going to be one of the main reasons you succeed this year! I claim this for you now.
As mentioned in the episode, the sermon from Mike Todd was confirmation I am on the right track. I'd encourage you to watch it also. It's 20 minutes and it's definitely the extra push you need to get moving. I would also encourage you to make daily to-do lists or in other words, write your vision daily and be rigid about keeping your word. You won't have to sacrifice forever but you are worth the time it will take to meet your goals.
I'm speaking nothing but prosperity, love, happiness, abundance, health and peace for you all 2023 and beyond...

Big Age Convos- Maybe It's Time to Go! Nov 14, 2022

And we are back with another episode! So sorry I have missed the last few weeks. Things have been unexpectedly crazy and I needed to take a moment to regroup.

Today's episode is a conversation featuring guest, Keisha P., and we are talking a little about life, God, and what it's like when God gives us a sign that it's either time to grow or go. I share a little about the crazy space I've been in as of late and how it has been impacting me and I talk about what I'm doing to make things better. I believe I am preparing to go into a new phase in purpose and scary as it it, I know it's for my good and the back end reward makes this journey worth it.

The Many Dimensions of Confidence Oct 10, 2022

Welcome back to Heal Sh*t podcast with your host, Tiffany Ellis!

This week we talk a little about confidence; a conversation inspired by Deion Sanders' IG video https://www.instagram.com/reel/Cja0cYXgw4g/?utm_source=ig_web_copy_link which says "Do not allow my confidence to offend your insecurity."

During this episode, we unpack a few of the layers of confidence and hone in on how it shows up in leadership and work environments. You'll get a journaling prompt at the end of the episode as well as a reframe that will help you with starting your own work around confidence!

Be sure to look out for additional videos this week on social media- @Tiffan_e_speaks on TikTok and Instagram and you can also check out my posts on LinkedIn, Tiffany Y. Ellis.

We Hate to See It Oct 03, 2022

On today’s episode, we talk a little about leading from a trauma informed perspective and why it can be very dangerous to carry unresolved trauma into your relationships. This episode will offer guidance for leaders who want to learn how to effectively navigate these relationships, providing tactical strategies to earn trust, offer grace and manage performance. At the same time, this episode is meant to plant a seed for those who are traumatized and need a little accountability regarding their behavior. The purpose of this conversation is to reduce the occurrences of misuse of performance management but also, increase the chances of people really taking accountability for how they navigate spaces. I hope you enjoy this episode and find this helpful.

Let’s stay connected this week as we unpack this more on TikTok and IG. You can find me at Tiffan_e_speaks on both platforms.

I love you all!

Do What You Have to Do So You Can Do What You Want to Do! Sep 26, 2022

There are moments when I feel like I have a learning disability or like I just don't have what it takes to make things happen and then I realize it's not so much about me not having the skill as much as it's about me not having the desire. Learning more about myself offered me tell-tell signs around the areas I tend to thrive but I am also learning to take that information as a revelation and not as a limitation. I am growing more familiar with what I need to show up as my best version of myself and doing more of that and this episode will challenge you to do the same.

How Are YOU Doing? Sep 19, 2022

In today's episode, I talk a little about a conversation I had with an old friend which prompted me to truly think about how I was doing and created space for me to realize I love the life I am living and the person I realize I am.

So often, we are on this journey of becoming more, being better, improving ourselves, etc. and we overlook all the ground we've covered and skill we possess. Today I talk about why we have to stop doing that and I share insight on how I started falling in love with me and what that looks like now. I also share tips on books you can read to start the journey of doing your personal work.

You want to listen to this episode!

Mind Over Matter (Special Episode) Sep 16, 2022

On 8/13/2022, hundreds of students from over 20 HBCU's across the country had the opportunity to experience the first iteration of a mental health tour I was fortunate enough to create called Mind Over Matter during Amazon's HBCU conference, Beyond the Yard. Now the tour is beginning to make its rounds to college campuses around the country and I could not be more excited.

This tour was created to bridge the gap in accessing mental health resources for Black students and to make mental health easy to understand and manage. Three therapists, Shanta Jackson, Jason Phillips and Monroe Howard Shackelford have agreed to work with us and they will be addressing anxiety, depression, imposter syndrome and so much more. These providers were also selected because of their strong social media presence, offering students platforms and people to follow beyond their day to day influencers so they have direct access to life-improving content.

If you know of a student who can benefit from attending this event at Florida A&M University next Tuesday, 9/20/22, please email me at Eltffan@amazon.com and I am happy to help them register for this event. Attendees must be currently enrolled students at the university.

I love you all so much and thank you for being a part of this community.

16 and Pregnant Jul 11, 2022

As we prepare to close out Season 2 of the podcast, Tiffany is joined by a special guest, Keisha Prudent, to tell the story of being 16 and pregnant in high school. This story is near and dear to Tiffany's heart because this situation changed her life forever and while things have worked out over the years, success didn't come without a lot of hard work, dedication, sacrifice and even extreme lows.

In the first part of this story told in this episode, Tiffany and Keisha talk about the power of peer influences and who they ended up in relationships with men who were much older than they were. They provide tips for parents raising teenagers now and even talk about the unintended consequences that often come from the decisions we make in life.

We hope you find this episode helpful and as always, feel free to share your thoughts by emailing Tiffany@podsandpr.com. Don't be afraid to share this episode with a friend/family member and be sure to connect with Tiffany on social media via @Tiffan_e_speaks on TikTok and Instagram.

Healing, In Spite Of... Apr 17, 2022

In this heartfelt conversation between Tiffany and Lo, the ladies come together to talk about Season 2 and provide an update on why it's been so long since they were able to record together.

Season 2 of the podcast was created to tell a little bit of Tiffany's story and to shed light on some of the traumatic situations she experienced earlier in life that led to problematic thought processes and ways of being. Through telling these stories, Tiffany hoped to illustrate how easy it can be to want to give up, stop believing in people and become the person you were not created to be but she, instead, tells a story of choosing to heal in spite of. That's what this season ended up teaching everyone.

The ladies also talk about how all the healing work they've done over the last year prepared Lo for her second experience with cancer and Tiffany for her new growth and the opportunities before her. It's an emotional conversation but it wasn't edited because real healing takes place during the real conversations.

After you finish listening to the episode, please take a moment and pray for both of the ladies and also reflect on what's been shared. It's encouraged that you also take a moment to journal about your thoughts.

Although Season 2 is wrapping, the ladies may be recording some special episodes over the next few months to keep the family close as everyone is growing into new seasons. In the interim, keep learning, loving, laughing, dancing, feeling, talking, growing, changing and most importantly- HEALING.

Hey there Heal Sh* family!

This week's episode is the third installment on our parenting series and this week, we take a multigenerational look at step parents. To help you see this conversation from different perspectives, we explore what having a step parent is like for children conversation and discuss the different feelings and emotions children experience and then we take another look at the situation from the lens of a step parent and what they may be experiencing. As a support for these statements, Tiffany leverages her experiences both as a child and then as an adult who remarried and raised her own children with their step father.

We recognize this episode may be triggering for some.

The point of this conversation is to start a healthy dialogue around everyone's feelings and encourage you to begin doing the work to mend the challenges we face as people navigating blended relationships.

Dear Mama (Audio Only) Jan 30, 2022

This episode may be triggering so we wanted to remind you to observe your feelings as you listen.

On this episode of Heal Sh*t podcast, Tiffany and Lo have a transparent conversation about being teen girls and being raised by single moms. We talk about the tension that sometimes exists between mothers and daughters and how that tension taught us lessons in love, grace and compassion. We highlight points in our teen years (while in high school) where we were especially unkind and how we recognized the need to be better.

This episode might feel heavy but we hope you are able to listen to it with love, understand the message and see ways in which you can either navigate your relationship with your daughter differently or even go back and give your mother the grace you did not give her for making mistakes as a present parent.

Absent Parent, Present Pain (Audio only) Jan 23, 2022

Greetings family!

Today's episode is the first installment of the new series on parent-child relationships for Season 2- Healing My High School Self.

In this episode, Tiffany chats with Jen about the impact of having a semi-present/absent parent and what that experience felt like for her as a teenage girl. She unpacks a little bit about the daddy issues she had early on and how they were able to heal a lot of that and build a beautiful father-daughter relationship.

Although Tiffany's story may sound unique, research shows just under 50% of Black children under the age of 18 are being raised by a single mother in the U.S. This can sometimes lead to a lack in available financial resources, less quality time and care as well as future risk for socioeconomic losses/instability. Not to mention the social and emotional impact having one parent can have on children and how this might cause children to show up in different areas of their lives. This is part of the reason we've chosen to shed light on the situation.

After you listen to the episode, we'd love to hear your thoughts! You can email Tiffany@podsandpr.com or you can DM Heal Sh*t podcast on IG by clicking the following link: https://www.instagram.com/healshitpodcast/

You can also join us live on FB Tuesdays at 8pm EST as we unpack the episode live. To join the conversation, follow Jennifer or Tiffany (or both) at their pages found here:

We are also joined by Ja'Qonna of Hey Queen Hey Official and she weighs in on the conversation around domestic violence, parenting and how her teenage experiences with her father and within relationships shaped her future decisions.

My First Love- Lo's Story (Part 2) Oct 17, 2021

Welcome back to the Heal Sh*t podcast!

This week we talk about Lo's first high school relationship that lasted from the time she was ages 14-30! She talks about becoming a mom her first year of college, the trauma of having to make adult decisions when she was just a kid and how this relationship shaped her life in ways she couldn't have imagined.

It's important for us to say we are not giving relationship advice but we are sharing our experiences as teenagers because we believe there is something to be learned from our experiences. Remember, even if this isn't your story, it could be the story of someone you love, lead or like. Understanding their story allows you to show compassion when necessary and that's what healing is all about.

After you listen to the episode, be sure to journal about your thoughts and all you've learned and if you have questions about the episode, you can DM us or join us live for the after-episode discussion on Tuesdays on FB.

It Ain't My Fault- Or Is It? Apr 19, 2021

This episode might step on a few toes.

The ladies are back with a new episode and this time they are discussing the need to become your own person after you've been raised and/or socialized to think and behave a certain way. This episode might be triggering because it is going to challenge you to start thinking about things you've been socialized to see, believe and accept as normal and some of these things might be things you've always known or believed.

This episode addresses trauma bonding, building healthy friendships and assessing your family dynamic, to include the relationship you might have with your parents. Y'all, this episode is good and it is definitely an episode we will need to unpack this Thursday during our live Instagram discussion called So What Had Happened Was at 7:30pm CST/8:30pm EST.

We'd love to hear your thoughts! Email us at Healshitpodcast@gmail.com or slide in our DM's.

Our Favorite B Word...BOUNDARIES! Apr 05, 2021

A very necessary element of any healing journey is boundaries and today, Shanta and Tiffany discuss them- the different kinds, what they look like and how to start setting some in your own life. Boundaries, as defined by Berkeley are the limits and rules we set for ourselves within relationships. Boundaries help each person figure out where one person ends and the other begins and help to define what you are comfortable with and how you would like to be treated by others.

Shanta and Tiffany talk about some of their own personal boundaries as well as how those boundaries are helping to regulate their personal stress, just in time for National Stress Awareness Month. A recommended reading on the topic is Set Boundaries, Find Peace by Nedra Glover Tawwab.

Women's Empowerment or Whatever It's Called... Mar 29, 2021

You asked and we answered!

This episode gives you our feelings on women's empowerment along with ways to identify when you're actually being empowered versus when you're not getting the love you deserve. We also talk a little about female centered friendships, managing expectations and how to connect with the right people.

We will also be discussing this episode Thursday at 8:30pm EST on our IG page live via @healshitpodcast. All you have to do is tune in! We hope you crush your week.

Kirk & Kerrion...Chillllllleeeeeee! Mar 22, 2021

Okay- So we discussed this topic on the Heal Shit podcast page live last Thursday during So What Had Happened Was (link to convo: https://www.instagram.com/p/CMlP2UepBG8/ ) then we had some time to think about it and we wanted to come back to the table to continue the conversation. We have feelings on the topic for sure...along with the situation involving Sharon Osbourne and we wanted to make sure we shared those thoughts with all of the community, in case you're not following us on Instagram. **side eye from Tiff & Tay**

Some of our followers weren't aware of either situation so we have included the links for reference.

We believe there is room for reconciliation and/or restoration but...Listen to the episode! Oh, and share your thoughts after you've had the chance to hear it. And if you're not following us on social media- WHY? On IG we are @healshitpodcast

Lies I've Been Told Mar 15, 2021

On this episode of the Heal Shit podcast, Shanta and Tiffany talk about the lies they've been told- whether it was lies from other people, which caused self doubt, or lies they've told themselves, which could have caused self destruction. The ladies talk about narratives that have been downloaded on them as well as ways they identified those narratives and how they replaced those narratives with the truth. It's a great episode to help you start challenging some of your inner thoughts.

After you've heard the episode, Tiff and Tay would love to discuss it with you on IG Live Thursdays during So What Had Happened Was #SWHHW at 8:30pm EST.

How You Healing, Sis? Part One Feb 22, 2021

How You Healing, Sis? is like asking how you're feeling but focused more on healing. It is our way of checking in on one another to see how far along we've come on our healing journey. This is important because we understand what you're currently dealing with will often impact the way you see life and/or respond to situations and it's critical to be aware of where you stand.

On this week's episode, Shanta checks in on Tiffany to talk about some of the challenges she faced in 2020 to include the sudden death of her 28 y/o brother, the pandemic and the marital challenges she and her husband faced. Tiffany talks through how those situations impacted the way she navigated her transition to a new city and how she currently responds to life in an open, honest and transparent way. This episode gets deep.

Tiff and Tay will be discussing this episode this Thursday on the Heal Shit Podcast IG page live at 8:30pm EST and would love for you to take part in the discussion. If you have questions or comments, send them to healshitpodcast@gmail.com or DM us at @healshitpodcast on Instagram today!

Heal Shit podcast has nothing but love for you ladies!
