Have you ever stood in the shower, running your fingers through your hair… only to end up holding a handful of it?
I’ve been there. And so has this week’s guest, Carrie Hicks. That’s exactly why I invited her to join me on the show.
Carrie is a salon owner turned Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner who has turned her own health journey, and that of her clients, into a mission to get to the real root cause of hair loss.
Let’s be clear: hair loss isn’t just about vanity. It’s personal. It can shake your confidence, your identity, and your sense of control over your own body. But here’s what Carrie wants every woman to know…
Hair loss is a symptom. Not the problem.
What We Talk About
In this powerful, no-fluff episode, Carrie and I dive into what’s really going on behind the scenes when you start losing your hair, and what most conventional approaches miss entirely.
Here’s what we explore:
- Why stress, inflammation, poor digestion, and mineral deficiencies are often the real culprits
- How the pandemic became a major hair loss trigger for so many women
- Why lifestyle has to come first before jumping into expensive treatments or supplements
- The role of hormone imbalances and thyroid dysfunction
- How Carrie uses HTMA (hair tissue mineral analysis) to uncover what your body’s been holding onto (or missing!)
- The Power of Lifestyle (and Listening to Your Body)
Carrie and I are both huge believers that healing isn’t a one-size-fits-all approach. What works for someone else might not work for you, and that’s okay.
That’s why lifestyle matters so much. I’ve seen it again and again with my clients, and Carrie’s work confirms it: when we start nourishing our bodies, reducing toxic stress, getting sunlight, eating real food, and moving in ways that work for our unique bodies, everything changes. Yes, even your hair.
There Is Hope (and There Are Options)
If you’ve ever been told “your labs are normal” but you still don’t feel like yourself…
If you’ve been told hair loss is just genetic or “part of getting older”...
Or if you’ve been offered a prescription or a surgery but never a conversation about why this is happening…
This episode is for you.
There’s so much more to the story, and you deserve to hear it. Listen in now and let this be your invitation to take your power back, one root cause at a time.
