What if your health journey started with your story—not your symptoms?

In this powerful episode, we sit down with renowned functional nutritionist and educator Andrea Nakayama to explore the healing potential of personalized care, root cause medicine, and therapeutic partnerships.  As the founder and former CEO of Functional Nutrition Alliance, Andrea draws on systems biology, mental models, root cause methodology and the therapeutic partnership to offer long-awaited solutions for the rapidly growing chronic illness epidemic.  She has led thousands of clients, and now teaches even more coaches and clinicians around the world in a revolution reclaiming ownership of both their own and their clients’ health. 

Andrea shares how her journey into functional nutrition began after her husband’s diagnosis, and how it shaped her mission to change the way we approach chronic illness. She introduces the concept of narrative medicine, explaining why understanding a person’s unique story is key to restoring health.

In this episode, we sit down with Alex and Lauren Abelin, co-founders of Kiki Milk, to explore the bigger conversation around clean nutrition, food transparency, and the power of whole foods—especially for children. 

Lauren, a wellness advocate and former emotional learning specialist, brings over a decade of experience in mental and physical health education. Her journey healing from chronic illness inspired her to tackle toxicity in the food system and empower families to live healthier lives. Alex, a seasoned entrepreneur and former Google executive, has founded multiple companies across tech and wellness. As a dedicated father, he’s passionate about building a better future for the next generation—starting with what goes into their bodies.

Together, the Abelins lead PlantBaby and its flagship product, Kiki Milk, with purpose, love, and a bold vision for a healthier world.

We dive into the hidden truths behind food labeling, the risks of synthetic ingredients, and why many plant-based products still fall short when it comes to truly nourishing young bodies. Whether you're a parent, wellness advocate, or just someone curious about what’s really in your food, this conversation offers practical insights and inspiring takeaways on how to make more informed, health-forward choices for your family and yourself.

Episode Highlights:

• How breastfeeding challenges inspired the creation of Kiki Milk

• The truth about natural flavors, synthetic additives, and food transparency

• Why most plant-based milks fall short for kids and adults—and how Kiki Milk is different

• The real cost of clean eating and why it’s worth the investment
