 Lofty Reputation as One of the Best in Her Field

Sport as a Key Component.

Spendlove believes that sport is a key component to any healthy lifestyle, but she also wants athletes and non-athletes alike to make sure they’re eating well. Athlete or not—everyone needs food for life as much of their body’s cells are made up of organic molecules found in our diets. She works closely with adolescents who oftentimes have trouble feeding themselves after practice because it can be difficult if there isn’t enough time left over from schoolwork.

In the last nine years, Spendlove built best practice systems and processes that optimize the productivity and fitness of the athletes she works with various sports and with different budgets and service capacities. In addition to her clinical expertise, Spendlove has a wide network, a strategic mindset, and a willingness to think beyond the box.

Outside the Sporting Field

Outside of her work in high-performance sport, Jess consults with motivated individuals and corporations to help them improve their health and performance on the sporting field, in the boardroom, and in everyday life. 

Working one-on-one with CEOs is one of her favorite things to do, and she provides a wide range of customized nutrition services across the company to maximize employee productivity, health, and well-being. Food, mood and mental health is a particular area of interest at the moment.

Spendlove is passionate about working with food brands that not only care deeply for their customers’ health but also understand the importance of a delicious product. She finds herself most frequently in this position as an entrepreneur who wants to help others find joy through healthy living habits.

She is on a mission to help as many people live their best lives. She feels that most don’t know how good they can feel, and she’s developed easy-to-implement strategies for them with cost-effective products that will make them more confident in themselves.

Spendlove has a passion for nutrition that shines through in her work, from writing articles to appearing on TV in shows like “The Biggest Loser Transformed.” Recently, she was awarded the ‘Emerging Media Presence’ award by Sports Dietitians Australia.
