A Calling Found
Me in 2013

My journey began more than 25 years ago when I found my calling as an old school nurse. I continue to serve today as a nurse for the veterans in my community at my local VA Hospital.

I didn't think I'd be lucky enough to find a second calling — however, relationship coaching found me in 2013 and Accelerated JoyWorks was born.

What I bring to every session is the same thing I bring to the bedside: a deep, unwavering belief in the capacity of people to heal, grow, and thrive when given the right support and space to do so.

Beyond the Coaching Chair

The Woman
Behind the Work


When she's not coaching, you'll find Tiffany writing letters by hand with her collection of fountain pens, experimenting with gluten-free sourdough, or exploring the art of cooking and baking.

These aren't just hobbies — they're reflections of the same values she brings to her work: patience, intentionality, and the belief that the most meaningful things take time and care to craft.

Core Values

What Guides the Work


Authenticity

Every session is a space where you can be completely, unapologetically yourself. That is where real transformation begins.

Vulnerability

It takes courage to be seen. Tiffany creates a sanctuary where vulnerability is not only welcome — it is honored.

Integrity & Maturity

Emotional responsibility and relational maturity are the cornerstones of every meaningful connection we help you build.
