This week in my kitchen, I am joined by Madeleine Shaw, a Nutritionist, Yoga Instructor, and Holistic Health Professional who has spent a decade in the wellness industry. Madeleine's journey began in Sydney, where she grew tired of dealing with IBS and sought the help of a naturopath. The naturopath recommended a complete dietary overhaul, including more wholefoods, fruits, vegetables, and increased protein intake. Motivated by her improved energy and well-being, Madeleine started documenting her progress on her food blog, MadeleineShaw.com, to share her discoveries with others. This led to a successful career as an Influencer with 262K followers and the author of several Sunday Times Best Selling Cookbooks. In this episode, I aim to delve into Madeleine's 10-year journey in the wellness space, exploring how the industry has evolved and how she has grown along with it. We also discuss the various health and wellness trends that have come and gone, and what true health means amidst a world of conflicting and misleading information. Finally, I took the opportunity to ask Madeleine some pressing nutrition questions from both myself and the community. This episode provides an insightful look into the reality of wellness and features one of the original Instagram Influencers who started before the term "influencer" even existed.
