Hard Beautiful Journey

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.

Friday Jul 02, 2021

I don't know if I can contain my excitement about this episode....I have been lookin' forward to this one being published since the second I hit the stop recording button.....because the topic is SEX and INTIMACY, and let's be really REAL for a minute....both are incredibly important, am I right?!

My guest today knows her stuff and I am still sitting here in a cloud of GRATITUDE that she came on my podcast to chat.

Dr. Viviana Coles is here...she is President and Lead Psychologist at her private practice in Houston as well as President of the National Sex Institute, and has her Bachelor's Degree in Psychology and Master's and Doctoral Degrees in Marriage and Family Therapy and is a Certified Sex Therapist......so yeah she knows A LOT about Sex and Intimacy and she is here to TEACH US so much goodness. And she gave me permission to call her Dr. Viv so that's what I'm going to call her!

Since 2003, Dr. Viviana Coles has exclusively focused on her work with couples and individuals experiencing emotional and physical intimacy issues. She has built a thriving private practice providing relationship therapy, sex therapy, and premarital counselling. Dr. Viviana is currently a featured marriage and intimacy expert on Lifetime’s hit show “Married at First Sight” and “Married at First Sight: Unmatchable's.”

And last but not least....Dr. Viv has written what I am predicting is the next "5 Love Languages" book in terms of scale and readership....her book is called "The 4 Intimacy Styles" and it will be out this August. I had the honour of getting a copy early to read and I cannot wait for everyone to read this book. So let's get to this interview!!
