Reclaiming Your Health Through Self-Advocacy and Simple Nutrition with Tiffany Flaten

I Heart My Life Show

In this episode of The I Heart My Life Show, Emily Williams speaks with Tiffany Flaten, a board-certified nutritionist and founder of Rock Bottom Wellness. Tiffany shares her personal health journey, from battling thyroid cancer and debilitating fatigue to becoming her own advocate in a medical system that often didn’t provide answers. Tiffany emphasizes the importance of trusting your intuition, pushing for the right care, and empowering yourself with simple, foundational changes to your nutrition and lifestyle.

Throughout the episode, Tiffany discusses how listening to her body and advocating for the right treatments led to a dramatic improvement in her health. She now helps others do the same through her programs and coaching, encouraging people to take control of their health and make the changes that align with their individual needs.

Key Takeaways:

• Advocating for Your Health: Tiffany shares how she learned to push back against medical advice that didn’t align with her needs. She encourages women to trust their instincts and keep searching for answers when something feels off, even when doctors say everything is “normal.”

• The Power of Simple Nutrition: Tiffany’s health turnaround started with simple nutrition changes. By balancing proteins, fats, and carbohydrates, she improved her energy and mood.

• Taking Charge of Your Well-Being: Simple lifestyle changes can have a major impact on health.

• Don’t Settle for 'Normal': One of Tiffany’s key messages is not to accept common symptoms like fatigue or mood swings as “normal.”

Host, Emily Williams is a success expert, author, speaker, and CEO of multiple brands.

After falling into a quarter-life crisis and struggling through a string of low-paying jobs (including serving up lattes at Starbucks), she finally decided it was time to follow her heart. So she packed her bags, moved to London (where she knew no one), and launched her own coaching business, I Heart My Life (without knowing if she’d ever make a dime). And that’s when her whole life changed course.

In her first month in business, Emily earned $442. She then went on to hit 6 figures before her 30th birthday, and—after just 18 months—successfully scaled what she'd started to a multi-million dollar empire.

Today, she remains the CEO of I Heart My Life, which has evolved into a media, educational and lifestyle brand through which she carries out her mission of helping thousands of women worldwide to create a life better than their dreams.
