Welcome to Hard Beautiful Journey, where vulnerability is our strength and courage is our compass. Hosted by Tiff Carson, who has walked a difficult path of her own, this podcast is a beacon of healing and hope. My mission? To create a space where we can talk openly about life’s hardest moments and the incredible strength it takes to move through them. If you’ve seen my podcast cover, you’ll notice a heart that’s broken, covered in ashes—but also healing. That heart represents the journey we all face. It’s through the cracks that the light shines in, and it’s in that light we find our way out of the dark. On this journey, I share my 7 pillars that guide us through healing: 1. Use Your Voice – Speak your truth and break the silence. 2. Love Your Story – Embrace your past, your pain, and your power. 3. Ignite Your Gratitude – Find the light even in the darkest moments. 4. Honor Your Body – Care for the vessel that carries you through it all. 5. Awaken Your Joy – Seek out the moments of laughter and joy, even when it feels hard. 6. Find Your Tribe – Build your community and lean on others. 7. Nurture Your Soul – Feed your spirit with what heals and uplifts you. Here, we dig into stories of grief, trauma, addiction, resilience, and overcoming loss, as well as the beautiful parts of life—like discovering inner strength, finding joy, and connecting with others in deep, meaningful ways. You’ll hear from people who’ve faced incredible challenges and emerged stronger, as well as those who are still in the process of healing. Together, we’ll explore what it means to rebuild after life knocks you down, and how to rise again, more whole than ever before. This community is for anyone on their own hard and beautiful journey. It’s for those who want to learn, grow, and feel less alone in the process. The Hard Beautiful Journey isn’t just a podcast—it’s a shared experience, built on these 7 pillars, and I’m so grateful to have you along for the ride.

Have you ever had an anxiety attack? If you’ve ever had one, you know that they are ABSOLUTELY terrifying. While you are having one you feel like you’re legit going to die from not breathing. And afterwards they can leave you feeling drained, exhausted, emotional and shivering uncontrollably. It does feel like your body wants to shut down. I am so thankful that I have only experienced one anxiety attack in my life. But it was soooo bad, that I will never forget it….and I now have endless compassion for those that struggle with them.
My guest today is a very dear friend of mine from high school. Shawna is here to talk about her very painful struggle with anxiety amongst other very difficult health challenges that left her on her knees begging God to help her. And wow, did he ever. I can’t wait for you to hear her story as it left me in awe of what can happen when you put your faith in something greater than yourself….and surrender. This is Shawna's journey with mental health, anxiety and being her own advocate for her health.
