We had the good fortune of connecting with Tiffany Clark and we’ve shared our conversation below.

Hi Tiffany, what do you attribute your success to?
The single, most important decision that I made that contributed to my success was to stop thinking that I’m in control and to fully let God lead the way.

I let my own fears hold me back for years by simply not being obedient. I could name numerous of different fears that crossed my mind, a bunch of “what ifs”. But the only “what if “ that truly mattered was; “What if you trust God blindly and stop thinking you’re in control because girl your way is clearly not working.”

After I quit my corporate job, my life literally changed overnight. It’s still mind blowing to me!! I have made more money than I have at my corporate career in a year vs their yearly pay, I make my own schedule I am my own boss, marriage is good, kids are good, life is good, God is greater! There are no complaints. I had wished I had done this years ago lol but timing is everything!

Can you give our readers an introduction to your business? Maybe you can share a bit about what you do and what sets you apart from others?
Starting your own business is not an easy feat, at least for me it wasn’t.

Starting my own business was a long drawn out process, let me tell you why. Interior design has always been a true deep passion of mine, I always knew that I would end up being an interior designer it’s just something that God instilled in me. However, I didn’t believe in myself enough at the time. It was due to my own fears and setbacks. They say that fear is a number one sit back in life, and that statement couldn’t be more true. Interior design is not something that I just woke up one day and wanted to do. I was literally born with a gift from God. I’ve been into interior design since a very young child as far back as I can remember, was the age 12 to 13. I started out by designing things in my own room and then it bled out into to the rest of my parents home, then on to my aunts, uncles, friends anyone who would let me design their house lol. I grew up watching HGTV all the time, my favorite show at the time was Design on a Dime, and Property Brothers who don’t love them right.

Fast forward to 2009 I joined the military for nine years, army Hooah! During this entire time from 13 to now in the army, I never stop doing interior design I was still always designing either my home or someone else’s home frequently. In 2018 is when I decided to not reenlist into the military and pursue interior design as my career. I had been self educating myself for 15+ years, I wanted to expand my knowledge so I took a course at “The Interior Design Institute” to receive my diploma in interior design. I was so excited, but even still, I let my fears get in the way even though people would tell me how good I was and I knew I was good. With my corporate job, I was making good money and we had great benefits. I knew a check was coming and I knew how much, with me stepping out into my own realm, I would lose all of that, and that was scary!

It was literally one of the scariest and intimidating situations I have ever been in. I knew for a while that this is what I was supposed to do. I would talk to God and myself about it all the time, I could literally feel it in my soul.

What truly changed the game and helped my thought process was reading “Woman Evolve” by Sarah Jakes Roberts. Halfway through the book all those fears that I had started to diminish, by the time I was finished with the book I knew exactly what I needed to do! My life has not been the same since. The things I used to stress over are no more, the fears I used to have, what fears!? After I finished the book the left my corporate job, my life has changed drastically for the better!
