Discovered by a London model agency at 15, Sarah quickly rose to fame in high fashion, appearing on the covers of Harpers and Vogue and fronting major campaigns. However, the industry's harsh realities led to her health deteriorating, prompting a career shift towards her passion for nutrition. Despite dyslexia, she earned a first-class degree in nutrition.
Sarah's commitment to mental health led her to establish the Be Well Collective, a non-profit focused on preventative mental health support. Her podcast, "Live Well Be Well," features conversations with leading scientists and health experts, gaining widespread acclaim.
In the political arena, Sarah presented findings on dietary guidelines and Type 2 diabetes at the European Parliament. Her book, "The Great British Veg Out," launched a campaign for healthier eating, supported by figures like Gary Barlow and Victoria Pendleton. She has also consulted for brands such as Ennismore group, Farmstand restaurant, and The GoodLife, and worked with Netflix.
Sarah openly discusses her struggles in the modelling industry, highlighting the lack of nutritional guidance. The Be Well Collective has positively impacted thousands through education summits, workshops, mentoring, and online resources. Her TEDx talk, "Are models, role models?" showcased her skills as a public speaker on physical and mental health.
Sarah's work has been featured in publications like the Financial Times, Telegraph, and Harper's Bazaar, reflecting her dedication to promoting healthier, more fulfilling lives.
