Your Voice Matters - Listener Check-In

This week is going to be about you. All you. Well, a little bit of me, but mostly you. What is up? Uh

>> Tiffanie: What is up? you guys, this is Tiffanie, your host of true crime connections. This week is going to be about you. All you. Well, a little bit of me, but mostly you. I want to hear from you guys. You don't say much. Well, that's not true. Lately, I have been getting a lot of emails, a lot of DM's, a lot of really nice reviews, and I want to say thank you, but I can't deliver what I don't know you're ordering. So what I want to know is, what topics do you guys want to hear more of? What topics are you, like, f****** enough?


Tiffany: I switched my recording days from Thursday to Wednesday

Tiffanie, there has definitely been a few changes with the podcast. if you've been following me for a very long time, you would know that I switched my recording days. Well, there were release days, I should say, from Thursday to Wednesday. I mean, not like you can't listen to a podcast whenever you want, but I guess I just want to know, how is that working for you? Did you like it on Thursday better? Would you like a different day? Do you just not give a s*** because you're gonna listen when you want to listen? Most likely it's gonna be that one. But I love hearing from my listeners. I love hearing that the stuff that I'm putting out is actually helping you. I love being able to hear that people identify with not only my own story, but my guest stories. Is there a certain guest that you would love to see on my show? I might be able to make that happen.


Somebody got my credit card, and I'm still having issues

Guys, this last week ish, so has been f****** h***. Oh, my God. So what was it about four episodes ago? Three? I don't even know anymore. I had art on, and he was all about fraud protection, and one of the huge takeaways was, it's not if you're going to be a victim. It's when some b****, somebody got me. I hope it's not one of my listeners, because that's not how we do this here in the community. We're here for each other. But I highly doubt that. what makes mine a little different is they thought they could order gun parts with my card. So, you know, that just kind of serves a whole new level of fun, because then we had to do a police report. I had a file with the FBI. I didn't have a card. I'm still having issues here and there with my card. And then Milton came in. For those, again, who have been listening for a very long time, you know that I am located in the Tampa Bay area. So it's just been one thing after another. But you know what? It's okay. It is okay. I'm still here. My house is still standing. My friends, family, everybody is happy, healthy. Some, a little less happier than others. my best friend lost everything. Everything. So that was heartbreaking to watch. But for the most part, you always need to look at the bright side. And, for the most part, nothing was too damaged. If that's proper English, I'm not really sure, but materialistic things, it really sucks to lose. Like, seriously. But that's all they are. You can always go buy them again. Family heirlooms, s*** like that, not so much. That can be where it really, really hurts your heart. But just know this doesn't last forever. You can always rebuild. You can always move forward. So what I took out of this experience is if I had any recurring charges that I didn't want anymore, well, I'd fix that. And, about. I got a week off of work, still paid. Hey, anyways, back to you.


There are a few things that I'm excited to catch you up on

I just wanted to let you know this has been insane, for me in such a short period of time, having to deal with not having a card and dealing with a hurricane. It's just been a d*** mess. Like, there's no gas, there's. The lights are all out. yeah. But moving forward, I want to hear from you guys. Are you following me on YouTube? Did you know that all of my episodes are actually on YouTube? Well, they're kind of on there twice. There's one for the audio version, and then there is one of the video version. So if you didn't know that, I don't know if I should be thanking you or telling you to go, because I'll tell you what I know. Sometimes my face does not lie. And I, Actually, I'm not gonna apologize for that. That's just who I am, you know? It is what it is. But true crime Connections podcast, that is my Instagram handle. True crime connections is YouTube, TikTok. Those are the ones that I am, like, most active on. So if you want motivational quotes, if you want just something to brighten up your day, or if you want to see clips of what is coming out, that's where you can find all that juicy goodness. There are a few things that I'm super excited to catch you up on. I am now a coach. So if you are inspired by listening to my stories about the s*** that I have been through, and you can relate, and you just need someone to kind of help you get out of that funk, someone that's willing to work with you, to help you rebuild your worth, your confidence, all of that. Please reach out to me. especially if you are a listener. I am doing free consults, and then your first session will be at a great discount. So just let me know if that sounds good to you. I'm still working on a name because, let's be fair, I think everything's probably taken by now, so that's yet to come. But the thing is, we're doing the things, so if you are interested, make sure to reach out for that. Also, since we do talk about toxic relationships a lot on the podcast, a lot of people are scared to date. What if I told you there's an app out there called Safespace? What this app will do is it meets singles in your area, but it's not just a dating site, really. Like, there's so much more involved. you can make money on this site yourself if you want to post, if people want to send you coins, I coins. There's, Riz. Stuff like all of that you actually get money for on the imatrix platform. It's on iOS and Android. There's other affiliates as well. But the good and cool thing about safespace is you meet a guy or a girl, that person becomes a little cray cray. You can block them. Okay, stay with me. You block them. And if they get within, I think it's 500ft of you, an alert will go off on your phone. I mean, let's say, I mean, this show gets kind of dark. Who am I kidding? Let's say Susie. She's been murdered. We're gonna know who killed Susie, especially if it's somebody that was from the app. Because the app is going to tell you when they were at your house, the time, the date, all of it. You can even set it up to where it would automatically call 911 for you. It's called Bupa technology and we are the first to use it. I think it's amazing and I think it's needed, especially in today's world, because people are f****** crazy. Said and done. That's just how it is. So if you'd be interested in that, I'm gonna have all the links to everything that I'm talking about in the notes for today's show. I also want to throw out my website, truecrimeconnections.com. that's another way that you can reach out to me. Do you want to know if you're in a toxic relationship? I got you there too. there's so many different avenues that I can help you with if you reach out, and I am more than willing to do so. I even had someone on my TikTok say that, you know, she was. She's been stuck in an abusive relationship for ten years, but she doesn't know where to go. Well, give me your location. I will find shelters for you. Like, I do not have a problem helping people get out of bad situations to the best of my ability. Obviously, I can't move you all in with me, so, you know, but I can definitely try to find resources and kind of. I think it's safe to say I talk outside. I talk outside the box. Well, that, too. I, talk and I think outside the box. So I might find something that you didn't even really think about, or you're too scared to search on your phone or your computer yourself because this person is all up in your business. I don't care if you love men, women. Love is love. I don't care. Same with the app on safespace. You can find transgender, you can find straight, you can find gay, you can find. I mean, the list goes on. I've always said that this is a community where we are in this together. We are rewired. We're inspired. Dammit. You are here for a reason. You either a want to know that what you're in is not healthy, or you just left what you knew was not healthy, or you're looking for different ways of grieving the loss of a loved one who was a victim of a crime. There's so many different reasons why you are here with me, and I do not take that lightly at all. At all. It warms my heart to know that what I'm doing actually matters because it's a lot of work. People don't realize how much goes into doing a podcast. It's a lot. And I'm, a one woman show. I take pride in my work, and I love talking with my guests and talking to you guys. You are my community. Like I said in the very beginning, I cannot deliver what I don't know, you're ordering.


Talk to me. Let me know what you want from this podcast

Talk to me. What do you want to see here? Is there a certain kind of therapy that maybe you find interesting that you want to know a little bit more about? Because I might have already done an episode on that, and I can actually send it your way, or I can find somebody who does that topic and I can have them on the show, no problem. I've been making some amazing connections and meeting the best of friends that I could ever ask for that's the one really amazing thing about podcasting, is you do, you turn into a family. We're all there to help each other. We all brainstorm with each other. We flip flop on each other's podcasts. But we all have the same messaging. We want to make the world a better place. So let's keep doing this together. I am honored when I look on my stats, which isn't very often, because I don't. I'm not trying to get sucked into that whole thing, but when I see that people are actually listening to me on their watch, on their alexa, it just. It warms my heart. It really does. And I just. I need you guys to realize that this isn't just some, thing I want to do for fun. Well, I mean, it started out that way, but now there's. There's purpose after pain. There is purpose. Sometimes there's purpose in the pain, and that's the fight through it, to come out better on the other side. Again, I will leave all links at the bottom, but other ways that you can reach me would be on my instagram, my TikTok. I am on LinkedIn. I don't know how many of my listeners are actually there, but you can find me there as well. And, then trucrimeconnections.com, youTube. Almost forgot. Jesus Christ. I'm about to break a thousand followers, y'all. I'm excited. So it's just things are getting really exciting, and I just want to make sure that I'm delivering what you want. What, do you want from me? I'm here to deliver it. So don't be shy. Reach out. If you want to send me an email, you can at, ah, podcastruechrimeconnections.com. and you can give me the good, the bad, the ugly. If you think my show sucks. Hey, your show sucks. I mean, I hope that's not how you feel, and hopefully we can change that. But if you're listening to this, I am assuming that you must like something. So I'm just gonna go with that and keep it moving. Not everyone's gonna like you, and that's okay. You're not for everybody. This podcast talks about some very serious s***, so it's not going to be for everybody. But if any of the episodes that I do resonate with you, or at least in a situation of somebody that, you know, send it to them. That's what it's for. Helping people heal, helping each other. You. I want to be there as much for you as I do for my guests. You are all so important to me. That being said, I think that is good enough for, this week's episode. Let me know what you want or what you want less of. Make sure to come follow me on social media if you don't mind leaving a five star review, either on Spotify or Apple. I've had some of the sweetest reviews written on Apple, and honestly, sometimes that's the kind of stuff that just keeps us going. Like I said, it's not easy. It's a lot of work, but it's rewarding when you know that people actually care to you. All right, you guys, until next time. Bye.
