The Zing Wellbeing Story & Women's Health
Hi everyone! My name is Rhian and I am the Founder of Zing Wellbeing.
I also founded The Healthy Mummy but I sold The Healthy Mummy in 2022 and am no longer connected and it is owned by a company called Mosh who are a medical weight loss company.
So here is my Zing Wellbeing story
I am passionate about health and wellbeing and especially women's health and after selling The Healthy Mummy (you can read below why I sold The Healthy Mummy) I was away from the health space for over 2 and a half years and I missed it immensely as this is where my passion lies.
And in July 2024 I decided to create a private support group to connect with other women who were interested in health, wellness and food.
I LOVE food, health, mental wellbeing and fitness and this really is what I love to live and breath.
And it grew very quickly and within a couple of weeks the women only community had over 5,000 women in and it made me realise that women wanted a place that looked at health holistically and was safe and supportive.
So after some thinking I decided that I was going to create a new business in the women's health and wellness space so I could dedicate my time helping other women and doing something I absolutely loved.
But I didn't want to create another The Healthy Mummy and I didn't want to create a weight loss program
And this led me to deciding to create Zing Wellbeing - a women's health and wellness platform focused on holistic health and where I would focus 100% on the customer, content and community - and helping women be in their best health possible.
What is Zing Wellbeing about
Zing Wellbeing is ALL about health and wellbeing and about putting community, support and the customer as number 1.
It is about nourishing your body and soul.
It is about feeling good about yourself.
It is about getting the most out of food, fitness and mental wellbeing WITHOUT focusing on weight loss or the scales.
It is about seeing food as medicine and fuel to live a healthier life.
It is about learning about how important gut health is and making recipes to nourish gut health.
It is about feeling energised and full of vitality.
It is about having a platform for women's health
It is about creating content and community for women and women's health issues - from food, fitness, hormones, menopause and mental health.
It is about learning to deal with issues surrounding mental wellbeing and the hugely negative effect anxiety and stress can have on us (I speak from experience).
It is about health, wellness, education, support and longevity
Does it have meal plans? YES.
Does it have exercises? YES
Does t have support, programs, experts on hand and inspiration? YES
And over time it will also evolve and adapt to what you need and want.
And I am also LOVING that I am now working with so many other women again who are helping me to create something pretty different and special for other women to help them feel good and be in their best health possible.
Thank you again for being here and for your support and I am genuinely excited about creating a health (not weight loss) platform for women and women's health.
We also have a weekly Zing Wellbeing Podcast too! and you can listen on Spotify or Apple podcasts.
And you can see our pretty AWESOME Zing Wellbeing program here which is getting 5 star reviews from 1000's of women who have joined.
And I am also investing in Australian made women's health products and we have just launched our organic and dairy free protein powder which is AMAZING!!

Zing Wellbeing is very different to The Healthy Mummy
I have had people ask if Zing Wellbeing is another The Healthy Mummy so I wanted to talk about this.
The Healthy Mummy is a weight loss company for mums and Zing Wellbeing is not a weight loss company and is instead a health and wellbeing platform for all women.
I am deeply passionate about women's health, food and wellness and I have to follow my passion and do what I love - and this is what I love - and this is what Zing Wellbeing is.
I love helping other women. I love health and I love a broader approach to health and wellbeing.
So Zing Wellbeing is not a weight loss company.
The Healthy Mummy is very much weight loss and with Mosh now owning The Healthy Mummy they even have a bigger weight loss focus as Mosh also offer weight loss medication.
The Healthy Mummy story
And for those of you interested in The Healthy Mummy story and how I founded that - read on below.
I founded The Healthy Mummy in 2010 to help mums lose weight after pregnancy and I spent 12 years of my life dedicated to the customers, the staff and the brand. It has been an enormous part of my life.
I started The Healthy Mummy in 2010 when I was pregnant and sold my house to launch it.
I took a HUGE risk to do it and from 2010 to 2017 it was extremely hard yards.
We rented apartments and houses (and my first baby was born in 2010 and my next in 2012) and each year we moved as our rental booted us our because the landlord needed to sell (it was so bad luck!), and I invested all the money we made over that time back into the business so it could grow and so we could give customers what they wanted.
But reinvesting all the money back in meant my family had no saved money and it was pretty stressful - and the bigger the business got the more money was needed to run it (staff, apps, products, working capital etc).
We created so much GOODNESS with The Healthy Mummy - over 1.5 million mums were part of the community and it felt amazing to offer a natural, supportive and community focused way to help women lose weight.
I have always been so customer focused and we did SOOOOO much around the customer and spent so much on shoots, content, customers and making sure the business was AWESOME!
I have so many amazing memories of what we all created and did!
Private Equity Investment
Then in 2017 a private equity firm said they wanted to invest. And although I was super nervous about this - selling half to a private equity firm meant we could buy a house and my family could have financial security after a rollercoaster 7 years and lots of risk.
So I did it.
As soon as I did it I regretted it as things changed straight away with a private equity firm owning half of it.
It was stressful and full on and I no longer was the sole decision maker of the business and it changed the course of The Healthy Mummy business for me.
Then in 2022 the business was sold to another company called Halo and then Halo had a tough time and the business was sold again to a business called Mosh (who now own it).
I don't really want to talk about this time but I will say it was extremely stressful and in 2022 I walked away from a business, staff, customers and a brand I loved so much which was extremely hard but I did it for my mental wellbeing and I chose my own and my family's mental wellbeing over money.
Who owns The Healthy Mummy now
But, The Healthy Mummy has changed a lot since I ran it and owned it and it is now owned by a Company called Mosh.
Mosh is predominantly a men's health business created by two guys called David and Gabriel (who are the current owners). Mosh started out selling men's hair loss medical treatments, then went in men's sexual health and then went into weight loss medications (which is everywhere right now with the launch of Ozempic).
It then recently (2023) decided to start to operate in the female medical weight loss area, under the name Moshy, and went onto to buy The Healthy Mummy.
Mosh bought The Healthy Mummy from a company called Halo (who I had sold it to) and they are now the owners of the business - so this is why you will see promotion around medical weight loss with The Healthy Mummy now.

Thanks so much Rhian and the team 🫶
Absolutely love the program I have chosen a variety from the standard program, menopause program and the vegetarian program. For the first time in nearly a year I am eating breakfast, lunch and dinner as well as 2 snacks and feeling so much better for it. I love that Rhian and her team are looking after people's wellbeing not just their food. I love all the various wellbeing coaches that give us some advice.
