Today we’d like to introduce you to Aalia Al-barwani
Hi Aalia, we’d love for you to start by introducing yourself.
My journey started in medicine, where I dedicated myself to helping patients navigate their health. But over time, I saw a gap—especially when it came to weight wellness and emotional health. Traditional medical approaches often failed to address the deeper, more personal struggles people faced, like emotional eating, stress, and the cycle of self-sabotage. That’s what led me to explore NLP (Neuro-Linguistic Programming) and coaching. I realized that sustainable change isn’t just about what we eat or how much we exercise—it’s about identity, mindset, and the subconscious patterns driving our behaviors. Through my own personal growth and transformation, I saw how powerful this work could be, and I knew I had to bring it to others. Today, I blend my expertise as a physician with the deep, transformational work of NLP and behavioral coaching. My mission is to help women move beyond the yo-yo dieting cycle, reclaim their health, and step into the most empowered version of themselves.
We all face challenges, but looking back would you describe it as a relatively smooth road?
Not at all—it’s been a journey of growth, learning, and constant evolution. One of the biggest challenges has been bridging the gap between the medical world and the world of mindset coaching. In traditional medicine, we’re trained to focus on physical health, but I had to carve out my own path that honored both science and the deeper emotional work necessary for lasting transformation. Building a business in this space has also meant overcoming my own limiting beliefs—shifting my identity from physician to entrepreneur, learning how to create and scale programs, and finding the right way to integrate technology to make an even bigger impact. But every challenge has been an opportunity to refine my approach, and I wouldn’t change any part of it.
As you know, we’re big fans of Albidaya Wellness. For our readers who might not be as familiar what can you tell them about the brand?
My business, Albidaya Wellness, is dedicated to helping women break free from the weight loss/regain cycle by addressing the root causes of emotional eating, stress, and self-sabotage. I combine evidence-based medical knowledge with NLP, mindset coaching, and behavioral interventions to create personalized, sustainable transformation. What sets my work apart is the integration of identity work. It’s not just about giving clients a plan to follow—it’s about helping them rewire their beliefs, shift their identity, and step into a new way of being. This approach makes weight loss no longer about restriction or willpower, but about becoming the version of themselves that naturally makes healthier choices. One of the things I’m most proud of is the transformations I see in my clients. When a woman tells me she finally feels at peace with food, or that she has more energy and confidence than ever before, that’s everything. My goal is not just to help women lose weight—it’s to help them upgrade their entire relationship with themselves so they can show up fully in every area of their lives.Currently, I offer a membership platform with a library of workshops and courses, high-level coaching experiences, and a self paced course on ending the cycle of emotional eating. I’m also passionate about collaborating with luxury wellness retreats and corporate wellness programs to bring this transformation to more people.
Is there anything else you’d like to share with our readers?
If you’ve ever felt stuck in the cycle of dieting, stress eating, or struggling with motivation, I want you to know that it’s not your fault—and you’re not alone. The way we’ve been taught to approach weight and wellness is incomplete. The real key to lasting change isn’t about forcing discipline or following the “perfect” plan—it’s about rewiring your mind, shifting your identity, and stepping into a version of yourself that makes health effortless. I’m here to help you do just that. Whether through my membership, coaching, speaking engagements, or future tech innovations, my mission is to help you experience true food freedom, self-trust, and lasting transformation. And if this resonates with you, I’d love for you to reach out or follow my work—I truly believe your transformation starts the moment you decide you’re ready for something different.
