Turning Health Into Wealth

Business coach and motivational mentor Samantha Gowing meets health practitioners daily who undersell their expertise and knowledge. “The fact is over 90 per cent of practitioners will never become wealthy. I specialise in working with practitioners to identify self-limiting beliefs, then motivate and support them to change their mindset and increase their wealth beyond what they imagine,” says Samantha.

The breadth of understanding that combined food, wine, music and art in contemporary pub setting has enabled her to take the next step. She has taken food beyond the plate as a sensual and social experience, and turned it into a vital and healing medicine.

After 20 years in the Melbourne restaurant industry, Gowing needed a new challenge but still wanted to be involved in food. She took a fork in the road, studied Nutritional Health Science.
In April 2003 she was awarded the “Excellence in Clinical Practice” at the annual Graduation ceremony for the Melbourne College of Natural Medicine.

Gowings Food Health Wealth revolves around food for health and well being, focussing on fresh, abundant, organic and biodynamic provisions. Her passionate and extensive understanding of nutritional medicine explores the healing effects food has on the body, mind and spirit.
