E247: Optimize Your Energy: Personalized Nutrition for Peak Performance: w/ Guest Katie Hardie
Description
On this episode of Adult Child of Dysfunction, we dive into the deep connection between recovery, performance, and emotional healing with Katie Hardie, Board Certified Holistic Nutritionist and Functional Diagnostic Nutrition Practitioner (FDN-P).
Katie helps high-achieving, performance-driven individuals optimize:
🔥 Energy + metabolism
🥗 Nutrition + gut health
🧬 Functional lab testing insights
💪 Body composition + performance
🌱 Recovery and stress resilience
🧠 Mental and emotional well-being
Her mission comes from lived experience. After years of ignoring her body’s needs—perfectionism, people-pleasing, pushing through exhaustion—Katie endured a stillbirth and uterine rupture that changed everything. She could no longer escape into overexercising. Later, adrenal lab testing revealed hidden stress still impacting her health through divorce, surgery, and life upheaval.
Her message is powerful:
➡️ Rest is essential for performance — not the reward for it.
💡 In This Episode We Discuss:
✅ How to build intentional recovery into a busy, high-performance lifestyle
✅ Why the first step toward change is the hardest — and how to start
✅ Functional lab testing: what it is + what it reveals about hidden stress
✅ Nourishing your body instead of punishing it
✅ The health impact of perfectionism, burnout, and lack of boundaries
✅ Why coaches with lived experience see what textbooks miss
✅ How chronic stress affects mental, emotional & physical health
If you've ever pushed yourself past the point of depletion — this episode is for you.
