Conversations with Tammy Griggs

Today, we’d like to introduce you to Tammy Griggs.

Hi Tammy, thanks for joining us today. We’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
I own a company called URTHCUR, and I help people achieve better health naturally. I make a powerful wellness tonic that helps strengthen your immune system with natural organic ingredients like garlic, horseradish, ginger, onion, elderberries, peppers, turmeric, and honey.

It comes in 5 delicious flavors: Spicy, Sweet, Cinnamon, Fire, and Elderberry. I originally donated my wellness tonic to my children’s school as a fundraiser to help raise money for school programs.

In a short period of time, it became quite popular, as I kept getting requests to make more. I sold out at every school event! So I continued on and am able to offer it through my website to many more people.

My goal is to eventually get it on the store shelves. I enjoy helping people turn their health around!

We all face challenges, but would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
It has been anything but a smooth road! The struggles have been interesting and curious. The people that could’ve easily helped me didn’t. The people I least expected to encourage me did so. The people that tried to stand in my way only fueled me to keep going.

I’ve been told to “just go back to being a mom” because no one wants to deal with a start-up. I’ve been rejected by a packaging company because I wasn’t big enough. At the end of the day, none of that matters because if I want to help as many people as possible, I must keep going. It’s up to me to get my message across!

Thanks for sharing that. So, maybe next you can tell us a bit more about your work?
I am a natural health & wellness coach, and I specialize in natural remedies that help people live longer, healthier lives. I believe nothing is more important than your health and wellness routine. Feeling good & vibrant well into your golden years is completely possible if you play the long game. What you do now, you will see the results in years to come.

I am most proud of all the people I have helped recover from serious illnesses. What sets me apart from others is my ability to see the whole picture of someone’s health concerns. Most medicine is so compartmentalized now that no one seems to focus on the entirety of the problems someone is suffering. I am known for my ability to connect all those dots.

We’re always looking for lessons that can be learned from any situation, including tragic ones like the COVID-19 crisis. Are there any lessons you’ve learned that you can share?
I can’t think of one person who didn’t learn valuable life lessons from the COVID-19 crisis. If you used that time well, you gained a lot of clarity as to what is truly important in life. Family, friends, and your health. Many people suffered the loss of loved ones during that time. It was so heartbreaking.

I learned once again the lesson of “quality over quantity.” It was first taught to me by my dear friend Tracy Wilcox Gillie. She was given the diagnosis of cancer and had to choose between “quality of life” or “quantity of life” at a young age. One of the bravest souls I’ve ever met. She chose “quality,” and her example remains with me today. We all had to make tough choices during the pandemic.

Looking back, I am grateful that I chose quality at every chance. Nothing on URTH is more important than your health and the health of your loved ones. We need to take care of each other and think long-term when it comes to our wellness routine. Small steps today can have a huge impact down the road. If given the choice, always choose QUALITY!
