Wellness influencer, Jeannette Ogden, talks about her evolved approach to food, work, and motherhood, and how it’s helped build her brand, @shutthekaleup.
I love Jeannette Odgen’s raw and authentic take on life and motherhood on her Instagram account, @shutthekaleup. With over 350k followers, it’s clear I’m not the only one who relates to her filter-free approach!
It hasn’t always been so “easy,” and Jeannette generously opens up about the backstory behind her self-made brand. From her history with disordered eating, loneliness, and financial hardships, to handling social media backlash and the everyday challenges – and miracles – of motherhood, business, and family life, her story and presence are as beautiful as the gorgeous recipes she posts on her blog. She’s such a beacon of light for all women out there!
