Now on to the interview!
Today we’re talking with Carolyn Haeler, founder and CEO of Mightylicious Gluten-Free. I hope you’re settling in with something warm and comforting, because this episode is all about comfort… in the form of cookies. Yes. COOKIES. And not just any cookies—gluten-free, vegan-friendly, actually delicious cookies that won’t crumble into sad, sandy disappointment the minute you look at them.
In This Episode We Talk About:
🍪 A celiac diagnosis that changed everything for Carolyn
🍪 The grief, chaos, and logistics of becoming gluten-free overnight
🍪 Why a terrible $10 gf cookie in a checkout line changed her entire life
🍪 How Carolyn tamed the wild chemistry of gluten-free & vegan baking
🍪 How she built an entire national brand from her tiny New York kitchen
🍪 The emotional side of food and why everyone should have a chance to enjoy it
🍪 Holiday eating, boundaries, and making space for your needs
🍪 Actual, real-life gluten-free baking tips from Carolyn herself
🍪 What community and partnerships look like to a very busy woman/mom/CEO
