Critics Review
‘Jess has been a trusted guide for me as I’ve learned how diet affects every aspect of my health and performance. Crucially, she has helped me develop a way of eating that is baked into my lifestyle. Her approach gives no oxygen to the fads, just good fundamentals, actionable changes and consistent habits.’ —Rohan Browning, Olympic 100m sprinter
‘Jess brings a rare combination of meticulous attention to detail and genuine practical application. Her depth of knowledge and insight is brought into the real world, which makes her expertise both powerful and actionable.’ —Bronte Campbell, Olympic gold medallist & Co-Founder Earthletica
‘So many of us feel like we’re doing everything right but still end up exhausted. This book explains why — and more importantly, what to do about it. In a world obsessed with quick fixes and extremes, Jess offers a thoughtful, evidence-based and deeply practical approach that shifts the conversation from managing time to managing energy. The result is a simple, human system built around small, consistent rhythms, not heroic bursts of effort, that helps you create consistency, build capacity and actually feel better as you perform.’ —Hugh van Cuylenburg, author, Founding Director The Resilience Project, co-host The Imperfects
‘Jess knows her stuff. From elite athletes to CEOs to everyday people, she understands exactly what is required. Having worked at the highest levels of sport, she knows what works, and what doesn’t, for all of us.’ —Melissa Doyle, journalist, author & presenter
‘Jess was incredible in helping me understand my body and what nutrition and diet was required to fuel optimal performance. We tried many different techniques over different weeks and months to help me recover and perform for sustained success.’ —Toby Greene, GWS Giants Captain, 2023 All Australian Captain
‘Having a vast breadth of knowledge is meaningless if you can’t communicate it effectively. Jess has a brilliant way of enrolling both elite athletes and regular punters like me in developing better habits and making healthier choices.’ —Osher Günsberg, TV host, author and podcast host
‘Jess supported me during my time at peak performance with Giants Netball, and I can honestly say I’ve never felt fitter, more confident or more in tune with my nutrition. Her knowledge, professionalism and attention to detail are exceptional. She’s a true pro who genuinely cares about the people she works with, and she will make a real difference to your life.’ —Serena Guthrie, performance coach
‘Jess has had a profound impact on my longevity in the AFL. She has a rare ability to translate complex nutrition principles into simple, sustainable and flexible practices. Most importantly, she challenged many of my long-held beliefs in a way that has reshaped my thinking and unlocked a whole new level of performance.’ —Dane Rampe, Sydney Swans AFL player, Co-Captain 2019–2023
