Lucy Stewart – from TV PR to Kids Nutritionist

I absolutely love when my nearest and dearest have a career story that was made for the pod, as it means I selfishly get to hang out with them and call it ‘work’. Today’s beautiful guest is my old mate Lucy and her career is right up the ‘So I Quit...’ alley.

Lucy was a TV publicist for many years at Channel 9 and then later at Foxtel, working on many top rating shows and with an array of incredible talent. A dream job indeed. However Lucy’s true passion (actually since she was in junior school) was food and the wonderful way creating recipes and cooking made her feel - and as a recipient of some of Lucy’s creations I also loved the way her food made me feel! But it was using food as medicine that would lead to her big career change.

Just before falling pregnant and while working on some incredible Lifestyle TV shows (River Cottage Australia for one) she decided to start studying to become a Nutritionist. Now a fully qualified paediatric & childhood Nutritionist. Lucy shares a wealth of ideas and recipes and help when it comes to all things little people and food.

A wonderful career pivot made even more magnificent as both Lucy and photographer husband Matt both quit their jobs and city life to travel around Australia in an RV with son Otis. In fact, the three of them made it around Oz one and a half times and Lucy jokes living with a tiny pantry for so long certainly stood her in good stead for lock down. Back home now in Sydney you can contact Lucy through social media or through her website. I hope you enjoy our chat. Lucy certainly helped my with my failing lunchbox offers this end and as always brought me baked goods to sample! x
