Meet Carien

I’m Carien – Food Scientist, Chef & Founder of Joelle’s Studio, and someone who knows what it means to rebuild from the inside out.

After being diagnosed with Cushing’s Disease, undergoing bariatric surgery and losing over 50kg, I discovered that true transformation starts with balance – not restriction.

My journey inspired me to create Joelle’s Studio, where science and self-care meet to help women feel strong, confident, and healthy – through protein-focused, functional nutrition that fits real life.

Founder & Food Scientist — passionate about protein-focused wellness

“A journey of science, self-care, and over 50kg lost – one balanced step at a time.”

From Survival to Science-Led Self-Care

Joelle’s Studio was born out of Carien’s own journey – a journey of rebuilding health and confidence through science, balance, and a lot of self-discovery.

As a Food Scientist, I understood the power of ingredients and the importance of consistency. But as a woman recovering from years of hormonal challenges, I also understood that food needed to nourish more than just the body – it needed to rebuild trust with yourself.

That’s where Joelle’s Studio began – a space where science and soul come together. Every product is designed to make high-protein living simple, delicious, and empowering.

Because wellness isn’t about perfection – it’s about showing up for yourself, one choice at a time.

The Functional Wellness Lifestyle

Because true wellness isn’t about perfection or extremes - it’s about creating balance that lasts.

Our products make protein-focused living simple, enjoyable, and sustainable. That’s why Joelle’s Studio is built around three foundations – Glow, Move, & Thrive – each guided by science and made with heart to create The Functional Wellness Lifestyle.

Our Philosophy: Science-Led, Protein-Focused Wellness for Women

Glow

Move

Bioactive collagen that supports joints, tendons & recovery.

Thrive

Together, Glow, Move & Thrive define The Functional Wellness Lifestyle — where nourishment meets science and self-care becomes effortless.

Where Science Meets Soul

At Joelle’s Studio, we believe in science-led, protein-focused wellness for women — blending food science and passion to create clean, functional products that help you glow, move and thrive every day.

Every Joelle’s Studio product is crafted with purpose and integrity – guided by food science and shaped by real-life wellness.

Many of our ingredients, like FORTIGEL®, TENDOFORTE®, VERISOL®, Lactospore® probiotics, Beneo’s prebiotic fibres, and Palatinose™, are clinically studied for their proven benefits in joint health, gut balance, skin vitality, and balanced energy.

For others – like our grass-fed whey isolate, flavouring systems, and functional inclusions – we carefully source only the highest-quality, best-tasting options available.

Our cocoa ingredients – including cocoa mass, cocoa butter, and cocoa powder – are sustainably and ethically sourced through the Cocoa Horizons™ program, supporting responsible farming and community development.

We don’t believe in shortcuts or fillers – just clean, functional nutrition that fits seamlessly into your lifestyle.

From your morning shake to your evening snack, Joelle’s Studio helps you make wellness practical, personal, and beautiful.
