Stacey
Our Chef
Food has been the foundation of Stacey Williamson’s life for as long as she can remember. Stacey is a Qualified Chef, Whole Food Plant-Based Specialist, and Wellness Advocate with over 35 years of professional experience in the culinary world. Her journey began in traditional kitchens, where she trained extensively and developed a deep respect for ingredients, technique, and the craft of cooking. Those early years shaped not only her skills, but her understanding of food as culture, connection, and creativity.
Around 15 years ago, Stacey’s focus shifted as she became deeply aware of the powerful connection between what we eat and how we live, feel, and heal. This curiosity grew into a calling, leading her to immerse herself in whole food, plant-based nutrition and complete a Diploma of Health Science. She began exploring food not just as nourishment, but as a foundation for long-term health, vitality, and wellbeing.
Stacey is passionate about making whole food, plant-based cooking accessible, delicious, and practical - free from restriction, guilt, or fads. She believes food should be joyful, deeply satisfying, and supportive of the body’s natural ability to thrive.
Empowering others is at the heart of Stacey’s work. Through teaching, recipe creation, and advocacy, her goal is to help people reconnect with food in a way that feels sustainable, intuitive, and nourishing. To Stacey, wellness isn’t about perfection - it’s about awareness, balance, and informed choice. Stacey remains deeply committed to sharing the transformative power that whole food plant-based eating can achieve and getting back to real food together.
