2022 has brought up DEEP PAIN for me. We all go into a new year filled with hope, excitement, and intentions for great accomplishments. The part that we seem to forget every year is in order for our intentions to manifest, PAINFUL STUFF WILL OCCUR. Look back on anything major you’ve attracted into your life….none of these things happened without any detours, roadblocks, craziness, bumps, bruises, or even life-changing catastrophes. When we want to call in something or someone new into our lives, typically the Universe requires us to let something go that we’ve been holding onto for far too long. That could be a belief, a habit, a relationship, a career, or literal pounds on your body. It would be nice if God had this all happen at a pace that was manageable and not so disruptive to our lives…but that’s not how BIG REQUIRED CHANGES unfold. We end up having a season, sometimes a month, a year, or a few weeks where we get hit with one major blow after another, forcing us into a place of complete surrender, as th

This may be hard to hear but it has to be said. A basic coach and friend will tell you what you want to hear, a real coach and friend will tell you what you need to hear, and risk pissing you TF off. You’ve been half-assing your business while convincing yourself that you’re really workin’ it. Just because your busy doesn’t mean you’re getting down to business. My brain can be crazy manipulative, convincing me that I’m too tired, that I need to wait, that the circumstances aren’t right, that I’ll do it tomorrow… Truth is, if we want what we say we want, we prioritize it and find a way do what we need to do today, not tomorrow. What if I told you that if you prioritized your business and went ALL IN on it for the next 6 months, you would for sure be making 2x what you’re earning now by the end of 2022? How would you show up for it differently than you are currently? My guess is you would invest significantly more time, energy, and money given you know the return on investment is GUARANTEED. The trick here is t

Consistent little moves are what build big dreams.   Your mind will try to convince you that if you can’t do it all right now then you have to wait “until…” Until you have more time Until you have more energy Until you know exactly what you’re doing Until you things at work slow down Until you get that certification Until your kids are older These are all just excuses your ego is doing a fantastic job of convincing you of because underneath all of that mental gymnastics, you are scared of the unknown. Scared of it not working. Scared of looking a fool. Scared of what others will think. Scared of your kids feeling neglected. Scared you don’t have what it takes. Scared you will waste your money, and have nothing to show for it. With everything I accomplished both personally and professionally, from building two multi-million dollar businesses, to recovering from severe childhood trauma, to getting my health back after I thought my life was over…All of it started the same way >>>> one small action at a time, and

The reason you’re stuck in a slump isn’t what you think it is. If you’re feeling uninspired lately, and you can’t seem to get your engine going, let alone your brain….you probably think you have “motivation” problem, but what you really have is an off balance energy system. All the coffee, exercise, and dance music in the world won’t fix this energy leak that likely has been going on for months, even years (that was the case for me). My fellow over-givers, empaths, and heart-based entrepreneurs are often in a chronic state of energy imbalance. The symptoms also show up in our bodies with fatigue, hormonal issues, skin problems, weight-gain, constipation, stiff joints, getting sick all the time, etc… What I’m about to share with you will require you to manage it for the rest of your life, just as you have to take your car in for regular maintenance to keep it in top preforming shape. When our ratio of output to input if off, we end up running on fumes….causing all of the symptoms of our mental and physical ene

A lesson for my fellow feelers, healers and highly-sensitives: You will encounter many people who are so shut down emotionally that your loving and expressive spirit is too much for them. These people may even tell you that you are “too sensitive,” “too much,” “so emotional,” or “overly expressive.” I’ve been called all of these things many times by the people I love, so much that I believed this was a major inherit flaw of mine. Just because someone says or feels that you are too much, doesn’t mean that anything is wrong with you.   This simply means your ability to be vulnerable, open, and intimate scares them, as they haven’t done enough healing yet to do the same. They may even resent you for it, as they would love to FEEL things on your level, but they can’t access it and don’t know why or how. You willingness and ability to feel others truth and pain is a beautiful gift. Just as it will attract some people it will equally repel some people. That’s OK. They aren’t ready for you yet, and it’s not your job

The amount of time we waste obsessing and caring about stupid stuff is a crime. Every time we give our time, attention, and energy to people, situations, and things that either don’t deserve it or are completely out of our control, we rob ourselves of the beautiful life we desire.  It would be fair for me to say that I’ve given away YEARS of my precious life with over-thinking, over-analyzing, and trying to control stuff that is completely out of my hands. Time is one thing we can’t get back no matter how much money we make or who we know.  No wonder you’re exhausted and feel like you don’t have time to start that business, launch a podcast, create that program, write a book, or even luxuriate…..you have given all of your f*cks away, and haven’t saved any for yourself.  The good news is while you can’t get that lost time back, you can make a pact with yourself today that you will start preserving at least some of your f*cks for yourself and your dreams.  Some people in your life will not like it. In fact, the

You’re in need of a perspective change. I said this to at least 9 clients in the last six weeks.  When we are afraid of taking a risk, failing, succeeding, looking stupid, upsetting friends and family….our ego’s come up with these assumptions that sound like facts.  “Tiff I really want to start a podcast, but I know I’m so late the game and there are already millions of podcasts out there, and it would take a miracle for some unknown person like me to standout.” I thought the same exact thing, eight years ago, six years ago, and then four years ago when I finally went for it.  Yes there are a ton of podcasts, just as there are a ton of Instagram accounts, websites, make-up lines, TV Shows, coaches, fitness experts, lawyers, accountants, Realtors, doctors…. There’s typically a ton of everything when there’s a great opportunity to make money.  But let me remind you that a majority of what is out there is either average or crap. There is a small percentage of GREAT, which is why there is always room for more, ev

WARNING! Heavy dose of real Tiff talk comin’ in hot. What I’m about to say to you may feel harsh, but it’s something that changed my life and allowed me to get to the 7-figure a year marker in both of my businesses.  Integrity is when your actions match your words.  There is nothing that will ruin trust more than continued broken promises, right?  They say they “promise they will do better.”  They say they “won’t let it happen again.” They say they “will absolutely get ____ done.”  Then we believe them…count of them…rely on them…and when they don’t it can be a range of emotions from deeply painful to frustrating AF to annoyed.  Yes we give people second chances and if you’re a codependent like me, you give far too many chances.  People teach us and show us who they are through their actions and lack of actions.  What have you taught yourself through your own actions and lack of taking action ?  > Do you set commitments that you will start Monday and then never stick with it? > Do you proclaim that you want to

 This word makes me lose my mind! It’s the ULTIMATE abundance-blocker.  Incredible how these 3 little letters can change the trajectory of your entire life. T-R-Y Guaranteed, you have heard your partner say it, your kids, employees, family members, and yet part of you is still operating parts of your life under the “I’ll try” method.  When my long-time private Spiritual Mentor Tony gave me the task to put a check mark on a Post-It every time I thought or said “try” for two weeks….I thought, “well I hate when people say it to me, so I doubt I say it much at all.” HA!!!! I found this worn sticky note inside one of my favorite abundance books last week (can you say “divine timing”??!”)…. 127 check marks!!!!! Keep in mind; I was already someone who cringed when I heard this word, ever since I had semi-private sessions with Tony Robbins in my 20s while working for a major pharmaceutical corporation.  BTW, I don’t recommend saying the word “try” to Tony in real life, he broke my ass down hard, and I needed it.  Whe

It’s a full time job believing in ourselves.  Managing our monkey minds and the 6-12 thousand thoughts we have in a day is exhausting sometimes, but the price you will pay if you don’t do the daily work is HUGE. Of those thousands of thoughts, on average 80% of them are negative, and 95% of those are repetitive negative thoughts.  (Source: The TLX institute®) Well f*ck no wonder I was walking around like a whacked out zombie most of my life. First of all, don’t beat yourself up for being so negative or critical, this is the default programming that your mind will go to if left unmanaged.  Second, just because we have those intrusive thoughts, doesn’t mean we can’t manage them. Look at your thoughts like 15 six year-olds playing with puppies…PURE CHAOS.  But just as you can wrangle those kids, you can do the same with your thoughts. At first, it will feel frustrating and exhausting, like nothing is working. That’s 100% normal.  Just like anything else you dedicate time, attention and patience to, your mind als

Don’t be fooled by this nonsense.  Thinking you have to do all the things and be on all the socials for this to work.  Thinking you aren’t organized enough or motivated enough to build a successful business.  Thinking that once you have “CLARITY” on what you need to do first and the next steps, then you will take action.  Thinking that you need to be something other than who you are to make major cash and impact online. (ie. a type A over-achiever, an extrovert, well-connected, super confident, well-spoken, etc…) As a type-Z personality and a self-proclaimed “World’s Laziest Business Coach,’ Empath, highly sensitive person, introvert, unorganized, over-thinking crazy pants…I’ve generated over 160 million dollars in sales for both my self and my clients, leaving me with multiple 7-figures in the bank baby!!!  I too, was fooled just like you for years by my own ego, and listening to other people’s projected fears and scarcity-based opinions. It kept me playing small; it kept me stuck in an unfulfilled life; and

We always see and hear what we need to at just the right time. This year, the year that includes my angel numbers “22,” was supposed to be my magical year… My ego is pissed off about it, feeling gypped, like “you teach this manifestation stuff Tiffany, yet your year looks insanely intense so far.” (Said in nasty bitchy 70 year old smokers voice)  These empath spidey senses of mine tell me that you’re also not exactly thrilled with how your 2022 is unfolding so far. You’ve even been beating yourself up over it, feeling more overwhelmed than ever in your growing your business.  Our inner bullies (egos) are nasty and full of s*it.  The truth is that on the surface it may appear like you’re going backwards, but in reality God is pulling us back to skyrocket ahead. The truth is you’ve also had some incredible things happen so far this year. The truth is on some level you’re still playing small and haven’t really gone ALL IN on your creating your desired life.  The hardest truth of all is that we can’t control the

You get to really see who someone is when they are at their lowest.  It’s easy to believe in yourself and have hope when all is working in your favor.  But when you get hit with blow after blow, and are knocked down, you have dig really damn deep to find a sliver of hope.  Some of you are feeling knocked down right now, and some of you are riding high. In a matter of an hour these feelings can drastically shift.  This is why you always hear me say, “if you want success, you have to show up regardless of how you are feeling in any given moment.” If we just show up for our business or the people in our lives when we “feel like it,” there would be no consistency, as there is nothing consistent about our feelings.  70% of the things I do for my business plus my mental and physical health, I DO NOT feel like doing. I make a choice to do them anyway, as I want the great end result or at least stack the odds in my favor that I will get it.  You will never feel like doing all the things that are required to achieve y

The amount of time we waste doing this is pure insanity.  If over-thinking and over-analyzing burned calories, I would be a famous bikini cover model…who feels me on this?? I spent TEN YEARS day-dreaming, analyzing, wishing, hoping, and obsessing over starting ProjectME with Tiffany Carter the brand and the podcast…..if I spent on average even 15 minutes a day thinking about what I wanted to do and have, that would be equal to 54,750 minutes or 2,281 DAYS!!!!! Imagine if even a quarter of that time was dedicated to even slowly starting and growing my dream business…..my net worth would be at the very least triple of what it is today. Plus I would have saved my self ten years of feeling unfulfilled, uninspired, and shaming my self for not taking action.  If left unmanaged our minds are so manipulative, cunning, and even destructive. Your mind can easily be fooled into thinking you are taking action simply because you are “thinking about it,” or “figuring it out” (aka obsessing).  It’s like thinking you are get

“What results can you guarantee?” Another one of my favorite questions to answer… My clients who asked me this during an application call or in my DMs before they decided to work with me now laugh when people ask them the same ridiculous question.  When it comes to business and life in general, there are very few guarantees. Believe me, as someone who is highly motivated by remaining safe and secure at all times, I would love nothing more than to have a daily guarantee that all of my hard work, time, energy, heart, and money that I pour into both of my businesses will pay off.  There just isn’t and there never will be.  Here’s what I say to people who ask me this question: I first address the emotion of where this question is coming from, and that is fear. It’s scary as hell to pursue our dreams, and do anything that’s new or outside our comfort zone. The potential client is craving certainty, because certainty will erase fear.  “I understand how scary it is to invest money you don’t have on hand to grow your

The Syndrome that is keeping you STUCK. It’s not entirely your fault, so please give yourself some grace around this blind spot I’m about to share with you… You want to get consistent clients and cash online, and see real life-changing growth in your business like NOW except… It feels like you are taking in so much information, have “tried” so many things, and nothing is really converting aside from Coach Sara trying to sell you her shiz in your DM’s.  Then you start doubting your dreams, yourself, and wonder “WTF are these other “bosses” doing differently online, where everything seemingly comes easy for them?” First thing…Scaling a business and brand to high six-figures and into the millions doesn’t come FAST or EASY. Most of these online marketers are using the “ease” lifestyle and language in order to appeal to your ego of so you will buy. AND YOU PROBABLY HAVE, and wasted your money! Second thing…Here’s what you are likely doing “wrong” (based the over 150K people I’ve coached worldwide in both group and

Doing the “right” thing is based on bullsh*t. I’m not talking about integrity, ethics, or human decency here…I’m taking about what we’ve been programmed to believe is the “right” the “smart” the “safe” life path.   Get good grades, go to college, get a job in Corporate America and keep climbing that ladder...the American Dream.  With the silent, unwritten promise of “if you do, you will have a great life and be financially solid.” SAYS WHO?!! Since when does a one-size fits all approach work for anyone? It doesn’t work with weight loss, it doesn’t work with marriage, it doesn’t work in business….so why in the hell would it work when it comes to making money ??? Doing the “right” and what I thought was the “safe” thing prevented me from fully sharing my gifts for well over a decade. If you’re feeling stuck or trapped in any area of your life right now, whether it be with your partner, your job, your business, where you live…I want you to ask yourself these questions… > Who says you can start a new career or bu

Pure craziness… This was repeated at least 27 times a day in the last three weeks.  You know how you watch highly successful people online, and it seems like everything comes so easily and effortlessly for them? Meanwhile you are over here hanging on by a thread of sanity… This is something that made me feel like crap when I was thinking about starting a ProjectME with Tiffany Carter. Here I already had a multi-million dollar business, so I wasn’t new to the wildness of entrepreneurship…but this personal brand thing, the podcast; the making money on Instagram stuff was new and terrifying to me.  When all of these “Boss Babes” (and dudes) were making it look so simple, I started to think, “Maybe I’m just not smart enough or tech-savvy enough to do this.” I knew starting and growing a business regardless of what model or industry is hard….it’s worth it…but it will test your patience and sanity on the regular. So what did these chicks know that I didn’t ? THIS thought kept me from fully diving in. Along with…wel

IF I had to start all over from scratch > Here’s what I would for sure do… It took me TEN YEARS to start this dream business and podcast. I got so stuck in fear, comparisonitis, analysis paralysis, not knowing where to even start and then getting overwhelmed and doing nothing.  Time goes by fast, and before I knew it, one year of procrastinating on my dream turned into 3 then 5, then TEN!!! Then my excuses changed to, well “maybe I’m too late in the game, now there are so many people doing it.” PURE INSANITY THESE EGOS’S OF OURS.  Hind site is always 20/20, but the best people to learn from are those who have already done it for a long time and are willing to share all of their mistakes and secrets. No information hoarding going on over here! If I had to do it all over again, here are the bottom line things I would do and not do: I would not wait to feel magically “ready.” That time never comes, you gotta do it whether you feel ready or not. Instead of thinking I had to come across polished, posed, and smart

For the first 6 months of the year, she made NOTHING and was ready to give up.  Pouring dozens of hours into posting content, creating freebies, sending emails, painstakingly editing Reels, buying courses, even joining high-ticket group coaching programs…. Still 6 months later, NOT ONE DANG DOLLAR to show for all of that work.  While mindlessly scrolling to escape her feelings of defeat and frustration, she came across one of my videos…and something told her “that she had to reach out to this woman.”  Despite being at rock bottom, she chose to listen to her intuition. I mean what did she have to lose? Maybe that I wouldn’t reply. She humbly shared her current situation with the coaching business she so badly wanted to be successful (helping woman overcome low self-worth). As most people do when they DM me, she apologized for “dumping all of this on me…but had a feeling I could help her.” I had her apply for my private 2- month business-coaching program so I could make absolutely certain that I was the best pe
