53. Hair Loss Isn’t the Problem, It’s the Symptom with Carrie Hicks

Hair loss is one of the most emotionally devastating health challenges, especially for women, and it’s far more common than most people think. But what if we told you it’s not the real problem?In this transformative episode, Susan sits down with Carrie Hicks, a salon owner turned Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner, to uncover the deeper truth about hair loss. What begins as a conversation about thinning strands quickly becomes a powerful exploration of root cause healing, the ripple effects of stress, and how lifestyle choices, not genetics, are often the missing link to lasting recovery.Carrie shares her journey from stylist to health advocate after witnessing alarming levels of post-pandemic hair loss in her clients. Her story is one of heartbreak, relentless curiosity, and a commitment to helping women reclaim their health, confidence, and power, starting from the inside out.Together, Susan and Carrie explore how digestion, mineral imbalances, metabolic health, and emotional wellbeing are intimately connected to hair loss, and why no serum, supplement, or PRP injection can replace the foundational work of living in alignment with your body.This episode is a call to action for anyone who’s been told their hair loss is “just genetic,” for those feeling like a stranger in their own skin, and for anyone ready to stop chasing surface-level fixes and start healing at the root.Your hair is trying to tell you something.
