She supplements her work through the healing arts – receiving her certifications as a professional coach, full-spectrum doula and 200-hour yoga teacher; and as a student of subtle body energy through Usui Reiki. Tiffany currently serves as a Board Member for Bodega Legal and Explore Charter Schools in her hometown of New York City.

Throughout her career, Tiffany has worked with organizations such as Dow Jones, Paradigm Strategy, The Posse Foundation, The Robin Hood Foundation, Sadie Nash Leadership Project, Spotify, Tumblr, and Viacom. While her career spans sectors of higher education, nonprofit, corporate, tech, and the arts – forming Indwell culminates her longstanding vision to reimagine a world that prioritizes a healing ethos across sectors, institutions, and relationships.
Founder
TIFFANY CURTIS (she/her)
We are coaches, designers, facilitators, researchers, strategists, storytellers, and wellness practitioners. Together we commit to actualize social healing by practicing:
BLACK AND DIASPORIC IMAGINATION
The narratives from which humans create are rooted in histories of erasure, so we build from the reclamation of black origins and diasporic journeying.
EMBODIMENT
The process of social change can distance us from our sense of self, and from one another. We believe it is beneficial to keep the mind, body, and spirit in communion with one another when moving through change.
RAISING CONSCIOUSNESS
Magic happens when we gather to create new worlds. Inspired by black feminist spaces, such as the Combahee River Collective, we seek to identify threads that unite us for movement.
INTENTIONAL UNLEARNING
In the process of change, we lose parts of what we held as truth - forming identity chasms between old and new world beliefs. We hold these as moments for enacting informed, liberatory, and conscious choices.
