  Mindful Nutrients

  Jun 2018 - Aug 2021

  Business Owner

  Susie established Mindful Nutrients once she saw how much the evidence-based blend of 36 vitamins and minerals helped her and her two gorgeous children.Mindful Nutrients was born from her Australian farm, located hours away from major cities, where she came to understand how humans are intimately connected to our natural environment through watching the impact of nutrition, soils and climate on plants and animals. Through her love of learning and research, passion to making a real difference in the world and her trademark persistence, Susie has become an entirely self-made entrepreneur, founding Mindful Nutrients, a company producing an evidence based micronutrient blend to help people struggling with low mood and anxiety as well as kids with ADHD and coping with Autism Spectrum Disorder.Oh, and PS, Susie has done this all single-handedly (literally!). She was born with one hand, which may have been one of the defining factors instilling in her the courage and determination that she could find the ways to do the things that are important to her.
