Jennifer Medhurst
Wellbeing programmes keep landing on the same checklist of yoga sessions, mindfulness apps and fruit bowls, and employees stop trusting any of it. Nutrition advice inside organisations is either too clinical to act on or too faddish to take seriously. The gap is a credible voice that can talk to a mixed audience about what to eat without moralising, dieting, or wellness theatre.
Jennifer Medhurst is a registered nutritionist and author who helps organisations run wellbeing sessions on food and health that are evidence-based, practical, and free of diet culture.

- Author of The Imperfect Nutritionist: 7 Principles of Healthy Eating (Kyle Books), giving wellbeing programmes a published framework to anchor sessions and follow-up content.
- A media-fluent communicator with an audience of over 1.5 million across TikTok and Instagram, which translates into a presenting style that holds a non-specialist corporate room.

Biography
Nutrition has a credibility problem inside large organisations. Wellbeing leads have to choose between clinical dietitians who speak the language of pathology and social media voices who speak the language of trends. Neither lands well with a mixed corporate audience.
Jennifer Medhurst sits between those two worlds. She is a registered nutritionist (mBANT, rCNHC) who trained at the College of Naturopathic Medicine, where she completed a three-year diploma with distinction. She runs a private clinic in London and writes for general readers, which is a rarer combination than it sounds.
Her book, The Imperfect Nutritionist: 7 Principles of Healthy Eating, published by Kyle Books, sets out a framework built around whole foods, dietary diversity, fats, fermented foods, refined carbohydrate reduction, liquids and mindful eating. The framing is deliberately non-prescriptive. The argument is that personalised, sustainable habits beat any single plan, and that most employees know this already and are tired of being told otherwise.
She reaches over 1.5 million people across TikTok, Instagram and her newsletter, and was approached as an early TikTok partner in the UK for educational health content. For wellbeing programmes, that audience reach is operational rather than decorative. It means she presents to non-specialists without slipping into either jargon or generality.
