“I attended Michele’s talk titled ‘Energy, Vitality, and Happy Hormones - It’s all in your food’ at the World Positive Education summit in Texas. The title intrigued me because I strongly believe that nutrition has a huge impact on well-being. The talk was amazing Michele’s energetic style and clear messages on the importance of nutrition inspired me to ask her to speak to my leadership team in our company in Australia and now we have partnered with Michele to fill a missing link in our holistic well-being program.’ Robert (Bob) Easton. Chairman and Senior Managing Director, Accenture Australia & New Zealand

The group was extremely engaged, and the feedback post has been overwhelmingly positive.” Thank you again Michele.

 “Mental Health, emotional well-being and clarity of thinking are in my view all enhanced by a low sugar lifestyle. As a family, we’ve kicked the habit (not hard) and it is awesome!  The science is all moving in this direction. For our own sake and the sake of future generations, we need to address the “sugar” epidemic in all its manifestations. Michele and her team know what they’re about and practice what they preach. Bravo!”

Peter Joseph, AM, Chairman, Black Dog Institute. Former Chairman of St Vincent’s and Mater Health, Sydney and St Ignatius College

"In a continually connected and ‘on’ world it is increasingly important for organizations to assist their teams to manage health and wellbeing. Michele brings to life the importance, and consequences, of not adequately managing our wellbeing. Her energy had the room captivated and wanting more. Michele’s material is relevant, practical and eye-opening and her recommendations easily implemented.” 

Melynda Carpenter, Head of Women in Focus, Commonwealth Bank.

“Michele’s style creates a wonderfully inspiring and authentic connection with the audiences she shares her messages of nutrition with. She creates simple messages that resonate with children and adults, turning empirical data into practical daily actions. Changing behavioural patterns is the key to positive mental and physical health, and Michele ignites a conversation that empowers people to make true change without fuss, and I have personally experienced just how easy it has been to sustain this conversation and personal choices as part of our daily family routine.”

Jane Weir, Head of Human Resources, Westpac

Jane Weir, Head of Human Resources, Westpac

When I was in the thick of my depression, I found that bad habits were easy to slip into and good ones easy to excuse away. Food was definitely a big part of this equation. Quick fix food felt great for a moment but pretty soon zapped me of energy, made it harder to concentrate, and overall contributed to a feeling of heading in the wrong direction. I LOVE Michele’s approach to realistically eating well! We’re not robots and our diets don’t have to be perfect and boring. Small changes can lead to big positive things."

Nic Newling, The Champions, Media Wellness Presenter

 “Michele presented a one-hour workshop on the topic ‘Gain energy, improve productivity and achieve balance’. Delegates rated the session as one of the best workshops of the Congress, reporting that Michele was an excellent presenter who shared relevant, interesting and practical content in an engaging manner, and who inspired attendees to challenge themselves to improve their work/life balance and achieve optimal health.”

Financial Professionals Australia Congress Committee

 “Scentre Group was fortunate to have Michele come and speak with us last year. She spoke to our Connect group, which is a development group for our Senior Female Executives. Our team immediately responded to Michele’s advice and approach to healthy living, mental & physical health because it was so practical and easily adapted to all kinds of lifestyles. She literally changed lives in the two hours we had with her and I’d happily have her again and recommend her to anyone”. 

Alison Flemming, GM Operations Finance, Scentre Group

“The presentation was engaging and inspirational and it got EVERYONE talking about sugar and the importance of healthy eating, physical and mental health which is what it's all about... my team and I have already made changes... we have ditched the jelly bean jar and introduced the homemade protein balls for when that sugar craving hits! Thank you again for providing this crucial information in such a personable and enjoyable way, while still being direct and "telling it how it is!" – 

Susan, Business Support Manager - MCDSPO (Mine Warfare and Clearance Diving Systems Program Office)

"I heard Michelle speak last year and she is probably the most engaging and interesting speaker I have ever heard. Michele's passion for nutrition and its health benefits are contagious and she is the voice that our adolescents need to hear. It is wonderful to have someone as knowledgeable as Michele, promoting mental health issues with some factual, practical, easy advice that will complement other health professionals & their services. Michelle is fun."

Jenny Shaw, Registered Nurse, Registered Midwife, School Registered Nurse

"Michele is a dynamic speaker with an enormous passion for the topic of nutrition. Her presentation was very well received by the Junior and Secondary School students, parents and staff in the audience. The information Michelle shares is practical and aspirational - it helps us to see how good nutrition can give a boost to our overall wellbeing”. 

Dr Sarah Lock, Dean of Students, Pymble Ladies College

"Michele has presented to our staff and parents about the importance of nutrition on the body and brain. She gave practical advice about how the food we eat has significant impacts on the health of our body and it’s functioning. Michele gave practical tips on assessing sugar levels and the importance of slow-burning foods that release energy slowly. These tips were insightful and manageable for children and adults to embrace in order to foster a healthier lifestyle". 

Emma Clemens, Deputy Head of Primary, Emanuel School

“We were honored to have Michele Chevalley Hedge from A Healthy View talk at our annual Guzman y Gomez (GYG) Summit in October 2017. Michele spoke to our 200+ audience about nutritional trends & wellbeing. She is an engaging, intelligent and articulate speaker who had our audience having many a “light bulb” moment particularly around the health risks of sugar in our diet. We will most certainly be working with Michele again in the future and would highly recommend her as a keynote speaker”. 

Steven Marks, Founder, and Global CEO, Guzman y Gomez

"Tired but wired! Many many entrepreneurs in a nutshell. Wellbeing, energy, and mental clarity is what all entrepreneurs need and are seeking more of. Michele delivers practical tips to enhance our mental and physical wellbeing in an engaging and insightful way."
