    Emotional Intelligence, the Super Bowl, and What the Bad Bunny Discourse Is Really About

    In this episode of My Two Cents, Tiffany Gibson unpacks the Super Bowl halftime performance by Bad Bunny—not as a pop culture hot take, but as a real-time case study in emotional intelligence, nervous system regulation, empathy, and perception. What happens when something doesn’t center us? What does discomfort reveal about our nervous system—and our privilege? And how do culture, music, and language invite us into deeper emotional maturity rather than reactivity? Drawing from her lived experience as a Bronx-born daughter of immigrants, a Black woman, and a nurse leader, Tiffany explores how music operates as a universal language, why emotional intelligence is tested most in moments of discomfort, and what the backlash to this performance reveals about bias, regulation, and cultural rigidity. This episode is an invitation to pause, reflect, and practice empathy—especially when something isn’t “for you.”

  2. Analog Is Luxury

    Analog Is Luxury

    Analog Is the New Luxury: Reclaiming Self, Community & Nervous System Wisdom In a world that rewards speed, stimulation, and scrolling, many of us are quietly disconnected—from ourselves, from each other, and from our bodies. In this episode of My Two Cents, Tiffany Gibson shares her perspective on why returning to the analog world isn’t about rejecting technology—it’s about reclaiming presence, emotional intelligence, and nervous system regulation. This conversation explores what it really means to live analog in a digital-first world: reading tangible books, spending time outdoors, rebuilding community, prioritizing sisterhood, and slowing down enough to hear yourself again. Tiffany weaves research, personal reflection, motherhood, and emotional intelligence to ask an important question: Are we losing the ability to read ourselves and each other because we’re no longer practicing real connection? This episode is an invitation to ground, reconnect, and remember who you are when you’re not constantly consuming.

  3. What We Carry

    What We Carry

    This week’s episode is a pause — not from reality, but with it. The nursing world is heavy right now. The political climate in America is heavy. And many of us are carrying grief, rage, confusion, and exhaustion all at once. In this episode, Tiffany speaks candidly about the emotional weight nurses are holding — from the killing of ICU nurse Alex Peretti, to the selective visibility of whose lives are named and mourned, to the internal conflict of wanting change without destroying your nervous system in the process. This is not a political instruction manual. It’s an emotionally intelligent reckoning.

    Environment, Energy, and the God Within

    In this episode of My Two Cents, Tiffany shares her personal relationship with hoodoo—what it is, what it is not, and why spiritual tools like oils, candles, and ritual don’t replace God but deepen connection to Him. This episode explores: Hoodoo as intention, not witchcraft God as divine intelligence expressed through nature, rhythm, and order Strengthening intuition through ritual, routine, and rhythm The role of ancestors as witnesses, not idols How environment shapes nervous systems, relationships, leadership, and identity Why clarity, peace, and alignment require environmental change—not just prayer This conversation invites listeners to examine the spaces they occupy, the rhythms they live by, and the environments they’re asking to support growth they were never designed for.

    Patience, Alignment & the Ring I Didn’t Chase

    In this deeply personal episode, I share my journey to emotional intelligence, feminine alignment, and nervous system regulation—and how that inner work ultimately led to my engagement on January 1st, 2026 in New Orleans after eight years of an on-and-off relationship. We talk about heartbreak, guardedness, misalignment in relationships, emotional maturity, and why patience is not passive waiting—but active self-trust. If you’ve ever had it “all together” on paper but felt disconnected from yourself, this episode is for you.

    Sovereignty, Self-Preservation & the Sacred Pause Before the New

    January pressures us to rush, but alignment asks us to pause. In this episode, Tiffany Gibson unpacks the emotional weight of the current global climate, grief, nervous system fatigue, and why winter is not the time for forced transformation. Through reflections on sovereignty, ancient calendars, and embodied wisdom, this episode invites listeners to rest, integrate, and redefine what “new” truly means. In This Episode, We Cover: Why January isn’t the real beginning Self-preservation vs. emotional overconsumption Grief, caregiving, and collective nervous system fatigue The symbolism of the Wooden Snake and shedding Sovereignty as embodied self-trust What’s next for New Nurse Academy and The Hub

    The Return to Self: Routines, Rituals, Rhythms & the Systems That Hold You

    This is not a “new year, new you” episode. This is a pause. A soft landing. A return. In this deeply reflective, end-of-year episode, Tiffany Gibson walks listeners through the highs and lows of the year—personally, professionally, and spiritually—while offering a grounded framework for closing one chapter and preparing for the next with love, grace, and compassion. Using the pillars of routines, rituals, and rhythms, Tiffany introduces practical yet soul-centered frameworks—SOAR, SWOT, and SMARTER Goals—to help nurses and high-capacity women take honest inventory without self-judgment. This episode explores: Why burnout isn’t a discipline issue—it’s a systems issue The difference between self-care and soul care How alignment requires structure, not willpower The evolution of New Nurse Academy and the SHIFT Community Wins, losses, missed opportunities, and lessons learned Why returning to therapy was part of returning to self How to create systems that help you stay regulated, aligned, and supported This is an invitation to land softly before you leap forward—and to build a life that sustains you, not drains you. Key Takeaways: Alignment begins with honesty, not hustle Routines keep life moving; rituals give it meaning; rhythms keep you regulated Goals should evolve as you do—otherwise, they become cages Systems support consistency; compassion sustains growth Reflection Questions: Where do I need to soften instead of push? What systems are supporting me—and which ones are draining me? What would it look like to return to myself with love and grace?
