Food, Health & Integrity in Hospitality-Led Spaces

Food shapes experience.

In restaurants, hotels, retreats, and wellness-led spaces, it influences not only physical health, but atmosphere, identity, sustainability, and how people feel long after they leave.

My consultancy work supports hospitality and wellness brands to design food offerings and health-led experiences that are nutritionally intelligent, culturally grounded, and operationally realistic, without compromising pleasure, creativity, or brand identity.

A Systems-Based Approach to Food & Wellness

I work at the intersection of:

  • nutritional science and functional medicine

  • food culture, tradition, and ecology

  • guest experience and wellbeing

  • operational and commercial realities

This systems-based lens allows me to support concepts that prioritise health without reducing food to numbers, rules, or trends.

My role is not to impose rigid frameworks, but to bring clarity, coherence, and integrity to food- and wellness-led decisions, ensuring that what’s offered aligns with both values and real-world execution.

Areas of Consultancy

Consulting projects are shaped collaboratively and tailored to the needs of each space. Areas of support may include:

  • Menu development & nutritional strategy
    Ensuring offerings support health, digestion, and energy while remaining appealing, creative, and culturally appropriate.

  • Ingredient sourcing & quality frameworks
    Guidance on sourcing, transparency, seasonality, and quality standards that align with brand values.

  • Allergen & dietary consideration strategy
    Thoughtful approaches to common dietary needs without fragmenting the menu or experience.

  • Wellness concept development
    Supporting new or evolving hospitality concepts where food, health, and experience intersect.

  • Retreat & programme design
    Nutrition and wellbeing strategy for retreats, wellness journeys, and immersive experiences.

  • Staff education & training
    Helping teams understand the why behind food choices, improving confidence, communication, and consistency.

  • Brand alignment
    Ensuring food and wellness offerings reflect the wider narrative, identity, and intention of the space.

Who This Work Is For

I work with:

  • restaurants and cafés

  • hotels and resorts

  • retreat centres and wellness spaces

  • founders, operators, and creative teams

Particularly those seeking to move beyond trends and towards long-term integrity in how food and wellness are designed, delivered, and communicated.

This work is best suited to brands that value depth, coherence, and responsibility and who understand that food is never neutral.

How We Work Together

Consulting engagements are offered on a bespoke basis, depending on scope, scale, and objectives.

This may include:

  • short-term advisory support

  • concept development phases

  • project-based consulting

  • or ongoing retainers

All collaborations begin with an initial conversation to understand your vision, challenges, and priorities.
