    Why Real Food Brands Are Hard to Build — ft. Rawia Abdel Samad

    In this episode of RAW, host Alison Hite (Thacker) from TheCheekyClean sits down with Rawia Abdel Samad — founder of Beituti, a modern Lebanese pantry brand bringing bold, clean-label Middle Eastern flavors into everyday cooking. Rawia shares her journey from growing up in Lebanon, where food was seasonal and deeply tied to family, to leaving a corporate consulting career and building a food company as a mom of three — one with no seed oils, no added sugars, and no shortcuts. They unpack the honest reality of what it takes to build a mission-driven food brand, why clean ingredients are structurally harder to work with, and what it means to carry your culture on a product label during conflict back home. This conversation is about food — and so much more than food. 🔗 Shop Beituti: https://eatbeituti.com  💰Code FIRSTBITE20 for 20% off your first order Follow Beituti: https://instagram.com/eatbeituti   Follow TheCheekyClean: https://instagram.com/thecheekyclean Shop TheCheekyClean Collagen: ConsciousCart.com ───────────────────────────── Show Notes + Other RAW Resources: This Week’s Episode: https://www.thecheekyclean.com/podcast/episodes/clean-label-food-brand-eat-beituti-rawia-abdel-samad   All Episodes: https://www.thecheekyclean.com/podcast

    In this episode of Raw, host Alison Hite (Thacker) – founder of TheCheekyClean and Conscious Cart – sits down with Emily Sadri, CNM, APRN, founder of Aurelia Health, to unpack why so many women feel dismissed, confused, and underserved when it comes to health.

They are signals. Emily shares her journey from working inside the traditional medical system to building a hormones-first telemedicine practice, and breaks down what women deserve to understand about estrogen, metabolism, ovulation, postpartum depletion, birth control, and root-cause hormonal care.
