A Podcast Convo with Tiffany from @rebuilding.joy
Tiffany is a solo-mom of two, a 15-year teacher, seeker of joy, and lover of all things adventure and getting active outdoors.

Tiffany is such a strong woman not only for herself and her family, but also in sharing her story through her account @rebuilding.joy as a way to help others navigate through grief, find joy, and live every single moment to the fullest.

Quotes from the Interview:
"I feel like we all have so much to learn from each other, which is one of the reasons why I started this podcast and the she who wonders series." - Candice
"It's like weaving in and out of the two [joy and grief]. And now, as time has gone on, joyful times are like a stronger thread in my life." - Tiffany
"So I've really just kind of tried to cast that [worry] aside. I do carry some mom guilt. It's not like I'm, you know, totally free from that." - Tiffany
"The more I poke holes in it, the more I realize there is so much I don't know about the world. I want them and me to see that the world is so much bigger than what we know.” - Tiffany
"Take care of yourself, physically, mentally, and give yourself time. Please take care of yourself." - Tiffany
