As a brand that is obsessed with sport and the optimization of an athlete’s potential, working alongside someone as meticulous as Mary the Paleo Chef has been game changing. Having a true thought partner with so much knowledge, experience and versatility has given us an advantage in the way we’re able to deliver holistic experiences to our athletes, entertainers and consumers. From dinner experiences with our team of North America Master Trainers to a long-term café residency at a massive consumer brand space, Mary is able to deliver a consistent level of quality and intimacy while still nailing a sometimes [always!] dynamic brief. There are many experts within this industry but it’s unique to find one that that truly lives their craft and draws their knowledge and passion from such a personal space. It’s been a privilege to learn from and be inspired by Mary as we continue to make athletes* better on and off the field.

Mary is a force to be reckoned with – not just as a chef and entrepreneur but as a force for good. When it came time to break the mold and create a dinner conversation show that encouraged men to be vulnerable, open up and question the ingredients that made them who they were…we knew we needed the food to be made not only with love but by someone who represents all the change we hope to see in this world. Mary was the only choice and we can’t wait to change the world one palate at a time with her.

Mary is an accomplished professional, her knowledge of and enthusiasm for the paleo lifestyle is bar none. Working on the paleo dinner with Mary at RN74 was an inspiring experience. It’s refreshing to see how creative one can be in the meal-planning process for a diet that can be misperceived as limiting.

As an actor, image means a lot and I depend on clean, natural, and nutrient dense energy to keep me fit. Thanks to Mary’s knowledge and enthusiasm for real food, the customized Phat Fudge she makes me has become one of my primary snacks at work. Her passion and talent for making kickass food is only matched by her ability to help YOU (also) kickass.

Few entrepreneurs have the chutzpah – and the heart – to tell it like it is. In walks Mary. She’s got the hustle, the creative genius, and the highest standard for everything she puts out into the world. She will also be the first to call you on your bullshit. You’ve been warned.

What’s so special and unique about Mary is that her “work” is authentically and consistently aligned with her entire self; there’s no separation between what she offers her clients, and what she practices and values herself. Mary’s openness about her own struggles and her wealth of relevant personal experience quickly earned my respect.

Mary is an ambitious, tireless, and high-powered machine. She’s a wealth of creative ideas, and I caught a glimpse of that while watching her develop recipes for The Primal Kitchen. She walks the walk and is always dedicated to offering up the best results possible.

Mary is, by far, the most down-to-earth voice in the paleo industry today. We met via Skype. I told her that paleo just seemed so unrealistic for my busy lifestyle. Mary cleared the air. She popped all the “how scary I think paleo really is” bubbles that were floating around inside of me. She got down to the core of why Paleo works but, more than that, she got straight down to why it is worth it to treat myself with this lifestyle change. Her approach is fun and realistic– no matter how busy of a lifestyle you lead. There’s no way you won’t be going paleo by the end of the conversation you have with Mary. She’s just too good of a coach to not follow in her direction.
