What is it really like growing up with a nutritionist for a mom? In this special episode, Lisa sits down with her third son, Nick Garrett, to talk about the food habits, family traditions, and health lessons that shaped his life from childhood through adulthood.
Now a chiropractic student, Nick reflects on everything from school lunches and meal prep to acne, sleep, gut health, fitness, and cooking for himself. Together, he and Lisa have an honest conversation about why the relationship we build with food as children often follows us for life, and how simple habits at home can create healthier adults.
In this episode, Lisa and Nick explore:
How childhood food habits shaped Nick's health as an adult.
The surprising connection between gut health, sleep, and acne.
Why learning to cook became one of his greatest life skills.
How meal preparation saves time, money, and improves health.
Why food should be viewed as nourishment instead of convenience.
