How to Trust Yourself Again and Stop People Pleasing | Tiffanie Janowitz

Send us Fan Mail “But it does take the pause of us saying, I matter too.” ~ Tiffanie Janowitz How do you trust yourself again after years of putting everyone else first? My conversation with Tiffanie Janowitz brought me back to a moment I'll never forget. I was a young single mother, sitting at my kitchen table after putting the children to bed. I had a pen and paper, ready to write down what I wanted for my life. An hour later, the paper held nothing but tears. I had become so disconnected from myself that I could not answer. That is why this conversation about self-trust, people-pleasing, and finding your voice felt so personal to me. Tiffanie is a women’s personal development mentor and the founder of The Franny Collective. She shared how she began recognizing that a life could look successful on the outside while feeling unfulfilling within. We talked about staying quiet to keep the peace, carrying other people’s expectations, and learning to honor the commitments we make to ourselves. Tiffanie also shared her experience of asking for further medical testing when something still felt wrong, which led to her breast cancer diagnosis. I appreciated her reminder that making room for yourself can begin with small choices. You can pause, notice what feels disconnected, and start asking what you actually want. One of my favorite moments was hearing how she named The Franny Collective after her mother, Fran, and launched it on her mother’s birthday. That story gave me shivers. She also introduced Golden Hour, which she described during our interview as a free weekly virtual gathering for women to learn, connect, and feel supported.
