Finding My Happy

Publisher, author, coach, journalist, and founder of Published + Black Magazine and the Published + Black Chamber of Commerce, Tiffany A. Green-Hood spent decades living under other people’s ceilings without realizing it. From navigating life as a teenage mother to surviving an abusive relationship, from not knowing who she was to building a six-figure publishing company entirely on her own terms - her journey is one of radical transformation, hard-won wisdom, and the kind of peace that only comes from choosing yourself on purpose. Organized into three powerful sections - The Shift, The Build, and The Protection - Finding My Happy takes readers through the defining moments, bold decisions, and painful seasons that led Tiffany to her happy place. With unflinching honesty, she shares what it looked like to wake up on herself after decades of fitting in, going along, and living by everyone else’s rules. She shares what it cost her. And she shares exactly what it took to build a life rooted in purpose, peace, and unapologetic self-love.But this is more than a memoir. It is a blueprint. Complete with 20 Life Nuggets for forward movement, 10 Prayers with scripture for every season, 20 Declarations of Affirmation to speak over your life daily, journal prompts for deep self discovery, and bonus chapters on self image, radical self responsibility, leveling up, and owning your story - this book is a complete toolkit for anyone ready to stop surviving and start building the life they were designed for. Whether you are still lost, in the middle of your shift, building your business, or learning to protect everything you have worked for - there is something in these pages for you. Because Tiffany’s story is not just hers. It belongs to every woman who has ever looked at her life and known - quietly, persistently, undeniably - that there is more. This is more than a story. It is a blueprint. And your happy place is waiting.
