Caroline Fausel Headshot 2026About Caroline Fausel

Caroline Fausel is a Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (NTP) and National Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach (NBC-HWC) who helps women restore their energy, digestion, and metabolism by addressing the root causes of their symptoms, not just managing them.

Her work focuses on rebuilding the body’s foundations: blood sugar regulation, stress resilience, sleep, digestion, and nutrient status, so clients can stop relying on willpower and start experiencing real, sustainable change.

How It Started

Caroline’s path into functional nutrition began in a deeply personal way.

After graduating from the University of Georgia (GO DAWGS!), she and her husband Chaz unexpectedly welcomed their daughter, Ella Rae, 10 weeks early. Life quickly shifted from a traditional career path to long days in the NICU and a new reality centered around her daughter’s health and development.

After being near-vegan for almost 5 years, Chaz and Caroline began questioning everything, especially the nutrition.

What started as curiosity turned into a deep dive into nutritional science. After transitioning from a grain-heavy vegan diet to a more whole-food, nutrient-dense approach, she experienced firsthand the impact of properly nourishing the body:

  • Improved digestion
  • More stable energy
  • Sustainable body composition changes

But more importantly, she saw how foundational nutrition could shape long-term health. She immediately launched this blog, Olive You Whole, and began creating healthy recipes! After doing that for almost 10 years, she wanted to be able to impact people’s health on a more personal level…

From Personal Healing to Professional Practice

What began as a personal journey evolved into a professional calling.

Caroline went on to receive formal training through the Mind Body Green health and wellness coach training and sat for the board exam to become a earned her National Board Certified Health & Wellness Coach (NBC-HWC).  She later continued her education with the Nutritional Therapy Association, becoming a certified Nutritional Therapy Practitioner (NTP). 

She has also completed advanced training on gut health as a Restorative Wellness Practitioner (Level 1), equipping her to support clients using a more functional, systems-based approach.

Today, Caroline works one-on-one with clients to:

  • Identify root causes of symptoms like fatigue, hormone imbalance, and digestive issues
  • Restore gut barrier integrity and support optimal digestion
  • Stabilize blood sugar to reduce cravings and energy crashes
  • Rebuild foundational health so the body can function as it was designed

Her approach blends clinical insight with practical, real-life application, because healing has to work in the context of your actual life.

What Makes Her Approach Different

Caroline believes that true health doesn’t come from restriction, extremes, or “white-knuckling” your way through a plan.

Instead, she helps clients understand that:

When you give your body what it needs, it will begin to give you the right signals back.

Her clients often come to her after years of dieting, frustration, or feeling dismissed, and leave with:

  • More energy
  • Fewer symptoms
  • A deeper trust in their body
  • A clear, sustainable path forward

Beyond the Practice

Caroline is also the author of Prep, Cook, Freeze and A Simply Healthy Life, where she shares practical strategies for making healthy living realistic and sustainable for busy families.

She creates recipes and resources focused on gluten free, dairy free, Paleo, or Whole30, or keto, helping others simplify nutrition without sacrificing enjoyment.

When she’s not working with clients, you’ll find her traveling with her husband Chaz and their two kids, finding ways to maintain a healthy lifestyle wherever they go.
