Unperform with Tiffany Han (formerly Raise Your Hand Say Yes)

As ambitious high-achievers, there are certain things we’ve been taught not to say. Instead of four-letter words. I’m talking about phrases like:  I’m dissatisfied with this life I’ve worked so hard to build. I want something unnameably-different from this amazing looking life. I want more. And less. And fun in a way I can’t articulate.  If you can relate, start by taking the bar of soap out of yo...

Welcome back for another Year of No Update! I’m addressing the question we’ve all been asking…did giving up social media destroy my business? Spoiler Alert: Nope! That’s not to say things don’t look a little different these days. Listen in as I share exactly how different this year’s Grown-Up Gap Year Early Bird Registration went compared to last year. That’s right. Down to the exact numbers! I’m...

How many times have you forced yourself to power through when you don’t really want to? This week, I’m talking about a recent “I hit a wall” experience of my own when I  reached my capacity and had to choose between two options: I could push through into burnout mode, putting out work I didn't feel great about. Or I could take a breath, give myself a little grace, and look around to see the earth...

Welcome back to another Year Of No update where I’m talking all things business! With the upcoming early-bird application period of Grown-Up Gap Year in sight, I’ve been tossing out the formulas and harnessing my energy to have a bit more fun with it all. Sure, the “way things are done” exists for a reason, but if disregarding the rules lights us up, shouldn’t we run with that instead?    Via my Y...

It seems like everyone and their mother has something to teach us about “finding balance,” and maybe you think you could get there too if only you could just cross off enough on the to-do list! Today I’m here to burst the balance bubble once and for all, because while we’ve been taught incessantly about what a balanced life should look like, we’ve never been told what it feels like.  What if we sc...

Warning: This episode contains uncomfortable and necessary truths that will ultimately set you free. Today we're talking guilt, doubt, and the myth of “enoughness.” None of these plagues are going anywhere, anytime soon. AND  we have the opportunity to tap into DFSTAG to take those initially wobbly steps toward strutting into a life we so desire.   More good news? You’re not alone. We’ve got a LOT...

If committing to a year of no was me planting a seed, I can now say that some very exciting (and pretty unexpected!) developments have taken root! I’ll get you caught up on how my Year of No is going, share what’s surprised me the most, and talk about my confirmation that a “Week of No” or a “Month of No” would never have worked for me.  I also re-cap last week’s Bake-Along experiment, my deliciou...

Relax your shoulders. Unclench your jaw. Today we’re talking surrender. While the word itself may summon images of everything from a day spa to a white-flag failure, I’m here to drive home the facts:    It’s not a walk in the park. It is NOT the same as giving up.  You cannot “achieve” your way into it.    What you can do is join me today with an open mind and a willingness to explore some new per...

In today’s history and linguistics lesson, I’m getting to the root of the un-influenced life and how best to find our way there. Who are we when we’re not being influenced? How can we find our way out of the rabbit hole when we’ve forgotten our discernment? Who is actually making the daily decisions in our lives?  After that, we’re talking “Slingshot Effect” and how to best utilize it on our journ...

Today I’m diving into the idea of “living your best life.” Usually, this phrase is followed by a list of items we have to buy or a checklist of tasks required to reach that coveted place. But how many cashmere blankets does it take to get to your best life? Why does it seem as though the to-do list keeps growing no matter how effortlessly we check things off?  And what might change for you if you...

This week on the Tiffany Han Show, I’m back with an update on my “Year of No” project, including all the ways I’m now saying “YES!” I’m also letting you in on my personal experience, especially during such turbulent times, living beyond the lens of social media. Spoiler alert: Instagram was costing me more than I realized.  I’ve been asking questions, following my curiosity, spirit tending, and ev...

This week, I am thrilled to bring you my conversation with Eve Rodsky about her new book, Find Your Unicorn Space: Reclaim Your Creative Life in a Too-Busy World . Eve has been called “the Marie Kondo of relationships” and is the best-selling author of Fair Play in which she used her Harvard Law School training and years of organizational management experience to create a game-changing approach to...

This week, we’re talking about a few beliefs that are standing between you and your radiant, Technicolor life, and why I want you to practice kicking them to the curb…starting now…with a ton of grace. Many of these beliefs are rooted in systems of oppression that influence so much about our lives, so while the beliefs won’t dissolve overnight, we can take the first steps away from them together. I...

When it comes to inspired life design, it’s very easy to focus on the things we’re doing (or not doing!). This week, I’m inviting you to go deeper and consider instead the stories you might be telling yourself about whatever’s been going on. More often than not these stories are packed to the gills with judgment. Our well-meaning but unhelpful brains are doing their best, but needless to say, it m...

Month one of my “Year of No” is in the books! As promised, I’m kicking off the first monthly check-in with a behind-the-scenes look at how it’s all feeling so far. And since I’m no longer on social media, you’re getting the unfiltered, highly-concentrated, shout-it-from-the-rooftops edition.  So how’s it going? Do I have any regrets? Have I cheated? Listen in as I reveal my full list of no’s for t...

Fr...

Welcome to Part 2 of the LIVE 400th episode Zoom party where I open up the floor to questions about 2022 “My Year of No” and giving up social media for a full year (or…forever?). Join me and members of the audience as we question and answer what this shift is going to mean for me, how to say “no” in a way that’s expansive, and what happens when it’s eventually time to say “yes.”  Is this a big ole...

Episode 400! Can you believe it? In honor of this milestone moment, as well as the 5th anniversary of my sobriety, this episode was recorded live in front of a Zoom audience. Join us as I take a look back on my transition from “Raise Your Hand Say Yes” to 2022: My Year of No!  This year-long project begins with perhaps one of the most daunting “no’s” of all, and that’s NO social media. For the ent...

It’s that time of year again! In today’s episode, I’m revealing my phrase for 2022, and how I intend to harness its power in the new year. While past years of this practice have been more helpful than others, now more than ever feels like the time to plaster mantras on the walls that inspire us to find a little more magic in every day.  I’m also talking about all things change and how to navigate...

Welcome to my Top 10 of 2021! While I won’t be listing off my favorite books or cozy slippers, I’m going to let you in on something a bit more intimate. As opposed to the top 10 things I’ve purchased, I’m sharing the top 10 things I’ve lived, diving into the experiences and lessons I’ve learned that have brought me closer to the truest version of myself in 2021.  Whether it be embracing my favorit...

Friction. Otherwise known as a sticky, uncomfortable feeling that makes it hard to move forward. Sometimes, it’s that restlessness that tells us it’s time to shift, yet very rarely gives us a clear direction or an easy fix. Today I’m letting you in on three truths about friction and how to handle it without overthinking to infinity and beyond, including the surprising lightbulbs about how and when...

Have you ever felt exhausted from doing nothing? Have you taken 1,000 bubble baths and still can’t seem to shake the stress of the day? Do you try to nap but can’t quite get your body to sleep? You’re not broken and there’s a reason for that. We are so lucky to have Board-Certified internal medicine physician, speaker, and author, Dr. Saundra Dalton-Smith on the podcast today to talk about the sev...

In his book, Everything is Spiritual: Who We Are and What We're Doing Here , New York Times bestselling author Rob Bell explores the endless dynamic questions and connections that have shaped his life, providing powerful insight into understanding one's purpose and place in the world. I am thrilled to be diving back into this conversation with one of my favorite teachers.  Listen in to hear me and...

This week, we're kicking off Season 10 by revisiting my interview with Glennon Doyle in honor of the release of Get Untamed: The Journal ! In this conversation, we talk about Glennon's book Untamed (it's ESSENTIAL READING y'all!) and dive into doubt and faith, why it’s not only okay but encouraged to change our minds, the dirty pink bunnies that are so easy to chase, and how you can find your own...
