Summary
Episode 115. In today’s episode, I’m joined by the amazing Jazz Leaf, nutritional therapist, private chef, wellness creator, and a woman who somehow makes healthy eating feel fun, flavorful, and genuinely doable. We walk through what shaped her love for food to discovering how nourishing meals transformed her own health.
Jazz shares what it was really like working as a private chef for athletes, how she fueled performance, and what goes into prepping multiple meals a day at that level. We also talk about how her relationship with wellness has evolved from intense cycling to slower, more grounding movement, dialing in the basics, and navigating recovery after her cycling accident.
We get into pregnancy priming (movement, and supplements), what becoming a mom has taught her, and how she introduces wellness to her daughter in a fun, digestible way. Jazz also opens up about the challenges of balancing motherhood with self-care and the routines that actually help..
If you love food, wellness, or simply want to feel inspired by a woman who does it all with grace, this episode is for you.
