IFBB Pro Tiffany Marie Davis on Hormones, Grit & God | Iron Perspective 78

The JD Denham Podcast

Show Notes

In this episode of The Iron Perspective, JD Denham sits down with Tiffany Marie Davis functional nutrition practitioner, peptide integration specialist, retired IFBB pro, and one of the most genuinely inspiring women to sit across from him in this studio. This one goes deep fast and never really slows down.

Tiffany opens up about a childhood that most people wouldn't survive without a bottle or a needle a single mom, moving every year, a dad she didn't meet until she was 11, getting shipped to Las Vegas at 13 and dropped into the projects, emancipating herself at 16, working double shifts just to afford underwear and pencils. She chose none of the obvious escapes. She chose competing. She became an IFBB pro within six months of stepping on stage for the first time.

Then she lost everything she built her identity around, was told at 27 she'd never conceive children, healed her own hormones through functional nutrition when doctors couldn't help her, and had her son naturally on the first try at 39. That's not luck that's a woman who became a student of the human body out of pure necessity and never stopped.

JD and Tiffany dig into what women over 35 are doing wrong with fasting and cortisol, why protein within 60 minutes of waking up is non-negotiable for hormonal health, how competing became her drug of choice in the best possible way, and why the broken people are always the ones God chooses to shine a light for everyone else.
