Healing Beyond Supplements with Carolyn KrueskampIn this episode of High Functioning Hot Mess, Elizabeth sits down with women’s health dietitian and personal trainer Carolyn Krueskamp for an honest, grounding conversation about healing that goes far deeper than food, supplements, or protocols.Carolyn shares her personal journey through chronic stress, mold exposure, migraines, relationship upheaval, and burnout — and how true healing didn’t begin until her nervous system finally felt safe. Together, Elizabeth and Carolyn unpack why you can’t supplement your way out of fight-or-flight, how emotional healing and physiology are deeply intertwined, and what it really looks like to start over gently.This episode is for the high-achieving woman who’s “doing everything right” — yet still feels stuck.In this episode, we talk about:Why nervous system regulation must come before supplements and protocolsThe hidden cost of chronic stress on hormones, metabolism, and cyclesRebuilding a life, business, and body after everything falls apartLetting go of people-pleasing and learning to trust yourself againWhy healing happens in relationship — not isolationCarolyn KrueskampInstagram: @nutritionbycarolynkConnect with Carolyn via Instagram DM (mention the podcast!)FreshMade Professional SkincareClean, locally made skincare formulated by a Wisconsin-based estheticianPrimal KitchenAvocado Mayo (used as the base for Carolyn’s Big Mac bowl sauce)Carolyn is offering a limited one-time HTMA (Hair Tissue Mineral Analysis) review for podcast listeners.Includes a custom video breakdown + personalized nutrition, lifestyle, and supplement recommendationsNormally not offered as a standalone service$297 | Available to the first 5 listeners who DM Carolyn and mention this episode🔗 Resources & Links Mentioned🧪 Special Podcast Listener Offer
