When Ali shut down her Houston clinic and went virtual she was warned she was walking away from a legacy, but instead of slowing down, things kept growing. In this episode Ali talks about food-as-medicine chef collabs, her contract with MD Anderson for a stage 3 breast cancer research study, and moving to Austin in 2017. It was at this time that Ali signed the book deal for The Anti-Anxiety Diet and things really started to take off. Ali shares the importance of listening to your gut and doing an internal inventory as an entrepreneur of where you shine and where you are dampened or burned out.

They share the growth from shipping out of their first home in Austin to shipping thousands of orders per month, the expansion of product offerings and volume of sales to national growth and becoming the primary arm of the business. Ali shares the stresses that came with the pandemic and censorship and how often God throws storms at you to liberate or realign. She shares about this upcoming Fall cohort of The Naturally Nourished Mentorship and how she is building out a membership platform, Beyond Keto for fall metabolic support.

Have you ever wondered about how Naturally Nourished got started or wanted to learn more about Ali and her background? In this reflective episode Ali is interviewed by her husband and COO of Naturally Nourished, Brady Miller. They go deep into the making of the company and how Ali found her passion for food-as-medicine in this two part 500th episode celebration. In part one of this epic deep dive, they discuss Ali’s odd jobs from crystal buyer at a hippie gem shop, to parking lot attendant, and hospital diet clerk; when they met and how their diets coevolved from ultra processed to vegetarian and locavore to sustainable snout to tail.

You will learn about what drew Ali to Bastyr Naturopathic University and her unique experiences with food-as-medicine, herbal medicine, and ultimately how she learned about functional medicine. Ali shares about her dietetic internship at University of Houston, key mentors in her professional development, and her first job as a registered dietitian leading medical weight loss and functional medicine programs on dysmetabolic syndrome.

This episode closes out with some big streaks of growth from working with a producer as a patient to getting locked in for 5 years of weekly food-as-medicine television segments on Fox26 and starting her own clinic and eventually supplement line, Naturally Nourished. Ali testifies how God has blessed her with opportunities and alignment for favor and how many things in this journey have been big surprises.
