The Business of Being Yourself with Tiffany Han (formerly Raise Your Hand Say Yes)

Everyone wants to teach women how to build businesses, but almost nobody is talking about the woman doing the building. But after 16 years in business and nearly 3 million podcast downloads, I've become convinced of something: You are the best asset your business has. Which means that who you are, how you show up, what you believe, and what brings you to life are the business-building tools we *need* to be talking about. In this weekly-ish show, I explore ambition, creativity, visibility, reinvention, delight, and the messy, ongoing work of becoming more yourself on purpose. Because being who you are isn't something you do after you've made it, it's what makes everything else possible. tiffanyhan.substack.com

    but *how* do I be myself?!

    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.

    Ep. 442 (Unperform Ep. 1): Welcome to Your Unperform Era

    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 flowWhy 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 Resources from this episode: Learn about Radical Self Belief and DF-STAGCheck out The Bold Yes CollectiveWatch this episode LIVE on Youtube Got questions?

    Ep. 438: How to *Actually* Take Action In 3 Simple Steps

    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!

See you next time!   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.   This is a public episode.

    Ep. 437: Momentum: How To Find It (and keep it!)

    Something that I hear so, so often goes like this: There are so many things happening all the time and all I can do is just keep reacting. Ack. We don’t want to live like that, right? We want to work toward goals and have direction - we want lives that feel good. So how can we do that amongst all the adulting stuff that keeps popping up? Today, we’re going to talk about momentum. I’m sharing: 3 keys to momentum (and a side order of science) How boundaries and bumpers keep us moving forward Why fun and easy momentum actually works Resources from this episode: What to Do About Your Fear (and how to move beyond it) The Raise Your Hand Say Yes Podcast is on YouTube now!

See you next time!   Tweets/Quotes: The beautiful thing about being on a journey is that every step of the journey teaches you more about what you need to know for the next step of the journey.   One thing that you can do to prepare yourself better for potential friction is as you're thinking about momentum, as you're thinking about starting, and how to protect yourself from the outside forces, is to say when the friction shows up, here are some different things I can do.   All or nothing thinking is never going to be satisfied because we can always try to have more and the opposite of more in all or nothing thinking is nothing. Not helpful.   It’s an adjustment to start reshaping your goals so that they actually fit into the life that you currently have. And it's a gift.   This is a public episode.
