Meet Stephanie: The Heart Behind Healthy Family Meals

Hi, I’m Stephanie, the founder of The Laughing Broccoli. I help families build healthier food habits and make mealtimes simple, happy and stress-free.

I trained as a chef in Austria, then spent several years working globally across hospitality, finance, and real estate - eventually leading international teams in mindset and continuous improvement strategies.
But my greatest passion has always been preparing food and connecting around the table.
Now, as a mum of two, I’ve created a system that blends everything I’ve learned - making family meals easier, healthier and more joyful for everyone.

What Clients Are Saying

Lycee Francais de Zürich

The topic fit very well with our lessons, and the children learned a lot from it. Nutrition is an important topic, and the sweet broccoli you used made a big impression on the children. They were still talking about the broccoli days later. You were able to build a very good connection with the children. Your calm demeanor and your voice helped them listen to you with interest. Not everyone can achieve that in such a short time. (Explorateurs de Saveurs Workshop)

Conny Reitmann

I really enjoyed it, and it was interesting. It’s clear that you’re very passionate about this, know your stuff, and want to inspire people to make a change and become more aware. (Energy Architecture)

Obfrau Jacqueline Leckel

As for me, I’ve already been able to put quite a few things into practice! My personal highlights were the “traffic light plate” and the pesto spread made right there on the spot. I made it at home right away since I still had some left over. I’m absolutely thrilled with it—it’s incredibly quick to make and tastes amazing! The feedback was consistently positive. It was very interesting, and for many, there was a lot they hadn’t known before. BSV Chemiepark Krems (Energy Architecture Workshop)

Isabelle Castaing-Soulier

A big thank you to Stéphanie for introducing our children to food in such a fun and relaxed way. They loved cooking, getting hands-on, and simply sharing this moment together in a warm, easygoing atmosphere. A wonderful workshop that helps move away from the pressure and expectations we sometimes feel when it comes to getting children to eat vegetables. (Family Food Adventure Workshop)

With Stephanie's support, our running group received tailored meal plans that were a huge help before the marathon. Best of all, my whole family loved following the meal schedule! The clarity around what to eat brought immense ease and calm to our marathon preparation. (1:1 Training)

Our family highly recommends Stephanie's 'Mindful Eating' workshop. My 5-year-old daughter enjoyed every step: from picking ingredients at the supermarket to cooking and sharing the meal. Stephanie's fun, calm, and engaging approach ensured it was a truly memorable event. (Explorateur de Saveurs Workshop)
