Rhiannon Lambert's path to becoming one of the UK's leading nutritionists hasn't always been a straight forward one.



Years before she opened her own clinic on Harley Street, she was a successful singer, jetting off to perform around the world.



But it was what she saw whilst singing at some of the world's biggest fashion shows, that encouraged her to pursue the career she has.



Some of the models were swallowing cotton wool to feel full, without putting on weight.



"It repulsed me," Rhiannon tells Elisa Roche in this first episode of the Career Conversations series. "I didn't feel comfortable there."



Rhiannon says later, her own unhealthy relationship with eating pushed her to "learn more about food" and go to university. 



Fast-forward a few years and she finds herself in another uncomfortable situation, this time after she was mis-quoted in some national newspapers.



She describes it as a "really tough period" in her life, and says it made her realise the value in having a mentor.



Rhiannon Lambert is the opitome of hard work; as well as running a hugely successful clinic, she is a best-selling author (her third book, The Science of Nutrition, was published in 2021), a chart-topping podcast host, and a new mother.



And it's clear from her conversation with Elisa that success has not come overnight.



Listen as Rhiannon busts the myth that being a social media star is "easy work", find out what she studied to reach the top, and get her top tips for starting out in the world of nutrition.
