We’re looking forward to introducing you to Tiffany J. Check out our conversation below.
Tiffany , really appreciate you sharing your stories and insights with us. The world would have so much more understanding and empathy if we all were a bit more open about our stories and how they have helped shaped our journey and worldview. Let’s jump in with a fun one: What do the first 90 minutes of your day look like?
The first 90 minutes of my day are sacred. I start with prayer and meditation because I believe you have to consult the Creator before you create anything in your day. That time with God sets the tone for how I move, make decisions, and interact with others. I often follow it with something that feeds my mindset, listening to powerful voices like Eric Thomas or Myron Golden, depending on what kind of energy I need. From there, I get dressed intentionally for the day and fuel my body with breakfast, so I’m starting from a place of spiritual alignment, mental focus, and physical readiness.
Can you briefly introduce yourself and share what makes you or your brand unique?
I’m Tiffany J, a Beauty & Business Strategist, image consultant, educator, and mentor dedicated to helping women look and feel like the highest version of themselves. With over a decade of experience in the beauty and fashion industry and years as an educator and school administrator, I’ve mastered the art of transformation, both in the classroom and in the mirror.
Beyond beauty, I coach women inside Pain to Purpose, a women’s group that helps women heal, rebuild, and step into their power after life’s toughest seasons. My own journey from shaping young minds in education to stepping boldly into full-time entrepreneurship has taught me the importance of resilience, reinvention, and leading with faith.
What makes my brand unique is the way I merge transformation on the outside with transformation on the inside. Whether it’s a bride walking down the aisle, a professional leveling up her image, or a woman rediscovering her voice, I believe beauty is both strategy and ministry. Right now, I’m expanding my services and preparing for new offerings that will continue to empower women to own their presence in every room they walk into.
Amazing, so let’s take a moment to go back in time. Who saw you clearly before you could see yourself?
That would be my sister, Sanchia, who has since passed away. May her soul continue to rest in eternity. Our relationship was one of the most defining forces in my life and a massive part of why I am the woman I am today. God blessed us with 25 years together, and in that time, she saw me not just for my potential, but for the greatness I carried.
I’ll never forget when I left for college in 2009, she told me, “These are the most selfish years of your life, focus on you.” She always reminded me that I was powerful and capable of achieving anything I set my heart and mind to. Between those years of my leaving home and her passing, our bond only grew stronger.
When she passed, I was 25. Since then, I’ve spent every year intentionally pouring into myself, honoring her belief in me, and living out the vision she saw long before I could fully see it myself.
When did you stop hiding your pain and start using it as power?
I would say earlier this year, when I finally decided to share my story about what I went through in my divorce. For almost five years, I carried it in silence, protecting my peace but also hiding my pain. Speaking it out loud was a turning point. It shifted the weight off my shoulders and turned my experience into a source of power, healing, and connection with other women who’ve walked through similar valleys.
That moment also deepened my commitment to Pain to Purpose, the women’s group I coach in, because I know firsthand what it’s like to turn your deepest wounds into your most incredible testimony. My story became a tool not just for my healing, but to help other women realize they can rise, rebuild, and thrive, too.
So a lot of these questions go deep, but if you are open to it, we’ve got a few more questions that we’d love to get your take on. Where are smart people getting it totally wrong today?
I believe the biggest mistake smart people make is acting as if they’ve “arrived,” as if there’s nothing left to learn. It doesn’t matter how much you know or how much success you’ve had; the moment you position yourself as the most intelligent person in the room, you stop growing.
True wisdom comes with humility, staying teachable, surrounding yourself with people who challenge you, and being willing to admit there’s always more to discover. The most intelligent people I respect are the ones who remain students for life.
Okay, we’ve made it essentially to the end. One last question before you go. What is the story you hope people tell about you when you’re gone?
I hope people say that I lived boldly, loved deeply, and served purposefully. As a woman of faith, I didn’t just talk about transformation; I embodied it. I want them to remember how I poured into others, how I made people feel seen, and how I helped women step into the version of themselves they didn’t even know was possible.
I hope they speak about the impact I had in education, how I shaped young lives as a teacher and school administrator, and how I believed in the potential of every child who crossed my path.
I want them to say I was unapologetically me, never shrinking, never compromising my values, and always showing up authentically, whether in beauty, business, education, or ministry. And most importantly, that I used every gift God gave me to create spaces where people could heal, grow, and shine, while living my life in a way that pointed them back to Him.
