Get Healthy or Get Dead: Taking Back Responsibility for Your Health with Kristina Morros

Send us Fan MailIn this episode, I sit down with Kristina Morros, a former critical care nurse anesthetist and the founder of Get Healthy or Get Dead.Kristina shares her journey from working inside the medical system to advocating for functional medicine, patient education, and personal responsibility in health. We talk openly about where the healthcare system works well — especially in emergencies — and where it falls short when it comes to creating long-term health.Kristina explains why focusing on root causes like gut health, hormones, stress, sleep, hydration, and movement matters more than chasing quick fixes or health trends. We also discuss how stress and nervous system regulation are still widely underestimated, and why modern life keeps so many people stuck in a constant state of overload.We touch on the pandemic, misinformation, and why so many people have lost trust in institutions — and how that makes it even more important to stay curious, ask questions, and take an active role in your own health decisions.This conversation is about balance, awareness, and getting back to basics. Not extremes. Not perfection. Just honest, practical steps toward feeling better and staying healthy long term.If you’ve ever felt overwhelmed by conflicting health advice or unsure who to trust, this episode will help you zoom out, think critically, and reconnect with what really matters.Find Kristina Morros here:Website & coaching:https://kristinamorros.com https://gethealthyorgetdead.comBook + resources:https://gethealthyorgetdead.comSubstack:https://gethealthyorgetdead.substack.comInstagram: @gethealthyorgetdeadTry The Consistency ResetMy new personalized coaching app for women 35–55 who are tired of starting over with diets, workouts, and healthy habits.Get simple daily actions, realistic workouts, practical nutrition habits, and Reset Mode to help you keep going when life gets busy.Take the quiz and build your personalized plan here: studio.com/turo/consistency-reset
