A Healthy Mindset: Alé Baazaoui on Mediterranean Roots, Intuitive Eating, Investing in Health, and a Passion for Figs

This week, I'm joined by my boo Alé, who's one of the healthiest people I know (and yes, I've run his lab tests to prove it!). We chat about his mindset around health, which we trace all the way back to his childhood living on the Mediterranean coast in Tunisia. We discuss the importance of investing in our health, instilling a love for nutritious food in our kids, and the impact of choosing high-quality ingredients. Alé shares his tips for tuning into your body's needs when it comes to both nutrition and exercise – which he is so good at doing. This episode is full of valuable insights, lots of laughs, and an in-depth look at Alé's intense love for figs. I hope it inspires you to embrace a simpler, more mindful approach to living a healthy life.   Resources: • Get started with functional lab testing → • Let's connect on instagram → @theholistic.remedy   What we talk about in this episode: 03:24 — Introducing my fiancé, Alé Baazaoui 06:42 — Growing up eating a Tunisian Mediterranean diet  10:55 — Setting the foundations for kids to eat healthy 12:51 — What's more important to you: convenience or health? 13:19 — A Floki situation (poker chips and chocolate chips) 14:31 — Once you go clean high-quality food, you can't go back 16:05 — The deception behind food labels like "organic" 17:19 — Working out in a way that feels good and fills you with joy 22:18 — How to become more in tune with your body  24:19 — Investing in yourself, because you're worthy 26:00 — Obstacles that come in the way of better nutrition 27:58 — Mindset is necessary to achieve healthier habits 31:27 — Eating a variety of foods will improve your health 35:17 — My boo's got a fig obsession   I'm so grateful to have you here, friend.
