Meet your host
Hi, I'm Maeve
I'm an Accredited Practising Dietitian who works with women navigating IBS, bloating and the low-FODMAP journey — online, worldwide.
I started The Calm Gut for the woman who's been told it's “just IBS” and left to figure it out alone. Each episode swaps guesswork and restriction for clear, gentle, evidence-based guidance you can actually use.
