Suzette Chaumette, MPH is a public health storyteller, food sovereignty advocate, and the creator of the Food Indy FAM™, an approach that reconnects people to land, food culture, and community well-being.
With more than 25 years of experience in public health and health communication, Suzette’s work explores how food traditions shape health outcomes—from maternal wellness and chronic disease prevention to emotional resilience and social connection.
Through her talks, workshops, and The Food Indy Podcast, she invites audiences to reconsider food as more than nutrition: as a source of belonging, cultural identity, and community healing.
Suzette works with hospitals, universities, and community organizations to integrate food literacy, cultural food knowledge, and storytelling into health and wellness initiatives.
Her talks blend science, history, and vivid storytelling, leaving audiences inspired to reconnect with the simple but transformative act of coming back to the table.
