A couple weeks ago on the podcast, I talked about how to be yourself.

As in, the literal how of the being. (Spoiler alert: it’s all about radical self-belief.)

Which is great! And: it’s usually followed by the question: okay so what do I do next?!

Because there’s no point in that radical self-believing if you aren’t going to do anything with it!

Eventually, you’re going to need to make a move. And it’s likely that move is going to be super uncomfortable even though you’re all in on radical self-belief.

Which is why, this week, we get to tackle the doing side of the Being + Doing = the Life You Want venn diagram!

Because having the life you want is an ongoing practice, one that you can start today!

In today’s podcast episode, you’re going to hear about the 5 C’s of Being Yourself and how they help you actually tackle the what to do question.

And to be clear, the 5 C’s aren’t boxes to check on your way to a perfect life, they’re practices for you to consider as you start, check in with as you make progress, and return to when things get wobbly.

Which they inevitably will because: Life.

Along the way, you’ll also get to write a new set of rules for yourself that help you have the capacity to keep going and the courage to show up when doing so feels the hardest.

Dive in, and I’d love to hear about which C’s stood out to you!

What does it actually mean to be yourself—and how do you do that in everyday life?

In this episode, Tiffany Han dives into the first half of that answer by exploring the "being" behind The Business of Being Yourself.

She introduces her Radical Self-Belief framework and the five pillars that help you trust yourself, tune into your inner wisdom, and make choices that feel true to who you are.

With plenty of relatable stories, practical examples, and encouraging reminders that authenticity is a practice—not perfection—this episode will leave you feeling inspired to take the next small step toward living more fully as yourself.

Welcome to the very first episode of The Business of Being Yourself! Tiffany Han is back with a rebrand and giving us the inside scoop behind the new podcast, why she retired Raise Your Hand Say Yes, and what led her to completely rethink the way she approaches business. From trying to do things the “right” way, to burnout, to rediscovering her voice and trusting herself again, this episode is an honest, funny, and inspiring invitation to remember who the heck you are. If you're ready to stop performing, embrace your "too muchness," and create success on your own terms, you're in exactly the right place.

Things look successful. On paper. But behind the scenes, you’re powered by caffeine, people-pleasing, and a quiet sense of collapse.

In this debut episode, Tiffany introduces Unperform—a podcast for high-achieving creatives who are done holding it all together, proving their worth, and performing "everything is great!" like it’s a full-time role they never auditioned for.

This episode is your permission slip to stop being everyone else's glue.

To unhook from hustle.

To burn the “shoulds” and rewrite your life from self-trust, not self-sacrifice.

If you’ve ever whispered “Is this it?”, if you’re exhausted by the performance but scared of the silence that comes after, and if you're done being productive at the cost of being human.… this episode is for you.

First- we’re doing something new here! So if you want to see the full, unedited and LIVE version of this episode, head on over to YouTube.

Or if you want to stay right here - let’s jump in.

Today we are talking about all the “right” ways we are handed in life. We’re told the right way to eat, parent, exercise, work, read … the right way to be a woman, and the right way to be creative.

All of this locks us in a cage, and if we aren’t really careful, life becomes an ongoing process of convincing ourselves we have to do things the “right” way, and if we don’t like it - well, we better suck it up and do it anyway.

Yuck.

So today I’m talking about:

• How trying to do things the “right” way blocks our flow
• Why we need flow (psst … without it, you just get stuck in your head!)
• Four key takeaways to remember when you are tired of the “right” way

For many of us, taking action can feel like an uphill battle, even if we’re motivated or inspired. The weight of uncertainty, fear of failure, and the allure of procrastination often paralyzes our best intentions.

It’s a common struggle to transform a thought into some sort of tangible action.

In my own life, I have found simple steps to take that help me actually get started.

What I am sharing with you today:

• How to take action (it’s not just about creating an attainable first step)

• The three steps that help us make things happen

• How to keep going!

• Momentum: How to Find It (and keep it!)

Tweets/Quotes:

• Getting prepared is actually its own starting action. If we haven't done that step, then we're trying to jump forward, and it's harder. It takes more - more strength, more initial force, more power to overcome that inertia, and then nobody wins.

• There are two deep breaths that are most important. Number one is the one that you take right before you do the thing, right before you take action. The second one is the one that you take after you've started because it lets you know that you survived.

• Envision taking the action. Seeing it is going to help you believe that it's possible.
