Johane Filemon on Gut Health, Food as Medicine & Raising Five Boys | Mompreneurs S4E20

What started as a mystery illness turned into a mission. When Johane Filemon couldn’t find answers in traditional medicine, she followed her gut—literally—and discovered her calling. Now, she’s a board-certified dietitian nutritionist helping people reverse chronic inflammation, heal their bodies, and thrive from the inside out.

In this episode of Mompreneurs, host Nancy Redd sits down with Johane to discuss her journey from pre-med student to functional nutrition powerhouse, her viral success as Black Nutritionist Mama, and how she built her own virtual practice while raising five sons.

Johane opens up about her own battle with H. pylori, why gut health is the key to everything, and how she’s fighting to bring culturally informed, evidence-based care to communities of color. From client coaching to launching a clean supplement line to developing a Haitian cookbook with healthier adaptations, Johane’s empire is grounded in purpose, access, and education.
