She was just 17 when she boarded a plane to America — scared, unsure, and heartbroken to leave home.
Now, at 20, Amber Tiffeny says that move was the best decision of her life.
The young Brit shared on TikTok how leaving the UK completely transformed her mindset and lifestyle. “When I tell you, everything changed,” she said. “I started wanting more for myself.” Surrounded by people who were “uplifting, motivated, and business-minded,” Amber realized how much one’s environment can shape ambition.
“I hate to say it,” she admitted, “but the UK is bad vibes. People don’t want to see you thrive. Over here, the American girlies support and uplift each other.”
Amber confessed she didn’t want to move at first. “I loved the UK — my friends, my family. I didn’t want to leave,” she said. “But God had other plans.” What began as resistance turned into growth, confidence, and purpose.
To anyone feeling stuck, Amber has one message: “If you’re looking for a sign — this is it. Don’t be scared to start over.”
Sometimes, it takes leaving home to finally discover who you are.
