ABOUT
Hi, I'M MATHILDE
A mother of three who spent years trying to do everything right, until I realised I wasn’t really enjoying the life I was working so hard to create.
Motherhood has made me question almost everything I thought I knew about health, family, success and what it means to be a good mother.
It also led me to study holistic nutrition, build a business helping thousands of mothers and, more recently, completely rethink the way I was living my own life.
Good food. Long meals. Beauty, pleasure and actually enjoying life.
The things that have shaped me also shape the way I think about nourishment, family and motherhood.
A few things about me...
-
I grew up in France and have now called Australia home for many years.
-
Food is a big deal to me. Cooking it, talking about it, sharing it and sitting around a table for far too long.
-
I discovered ancestral nutrition during my first pregnancy and have been fascinated by traditional food and wisdom ever since.
-
I’ve had three home births.
-
We homeschool our children and have built a life that looks a little different from the one I imagined I would have.
-
My Mediterranean roots influence so much of what I value: good food, long meals, people around the table, time outside, beauty, pleasure and actually enjoying life.
-
I love travelling and showing my children the world.
-
I spent years being the person who always had a plan. I’m learning that life is a lot more fun when I don’t.
MY STORY
I spent years trying to do motherhood “right.”
I came into motherhood wanting to give my children the absolute best I could.
So I researched everything. Food, birth, sleep, toxins, development, how we should live. I became very good at planning, organising and thinking three steps ahead.
But after years of broken sleep, putting everyone else first and carrying an endless mental load, I was exhausted. I was doing everything I thought a good mother should do, yet I was barely enjoying the life I'd worked so hard to create.
I knew something needed to change.
I started putting myself back into my own life.
One of the biggest changes was nourishing myself properly. Eating enough, eating regularly and giving my body what it needed made an enormous difference to how I coped with years of sleep deprivation.
I also began questioning how complicated we'd made wellness and motherhood. All the conflicting advice, the rules, the pressure to get everything right. I wanted to enjoy good food, have more fun, trust my own judgement and stop worrying so much about what everyone else thought.
And I wanted to enjoy my children! To have the patience to listen, the curiosity to see the world through their eyes and the freedom to raise them according to my own values.
I wanted us to build a family life we genuinely loved living, where my children could grow up feeling respected, deeply loved and free to become who they are.
Nourished mothers. Connected families.
Nutrition will always be at the heart of my work. I believe deeply in traditional, nutrient-dense foods and how much of a difference proper nourishment can make during pregnancy, postpartum, breastfeeding and our children's early years.
But I also believe we've overcomplicated looking after ourselves and our families. I want to help mothers understand what really matters, make informed decisions and find practical ways to nourish themselves and their children without feeling like they need to do everything perfectly.
And I'm just as passionate about the relationships we're building with our children.
I want mothers to feel wonderfully alive in their own lives, free to raise their children according to their values, and deeply connected with the little people they're raising.
Because I believe the way we nourish our families, the relationships we build and the freedom we give our children to be themselves can change the world they'll grow up to shape.
