I’m 28 and I actually found Sarah through the Health Code. Someone on another podcast Facebook group recommended it as a healthy living/diet/fitness podcast. I listened to a couple episodes and then looked her up on YouTube. This was at the start of lockdown in the UK in late March. I got hooked and went back to her first video ever and watched literally all of them up until her baby announcement (that vid was cute, but I could tell her focus was changing into “mummy” “bossbabe” vibes and it wasn’t for me anymore). Her vids were a great distraction, but in hindsight it wasn’t healthy watching 5+ videos a day lol. I found her first videos good, she was really humble back then and I was genuinely happy for her when she got sent that Nutribullet, met Kurt, did that first fitness meetup, etc.
There were some red flags, but nothing to really push me over the edge. Again, I just lost interest when she got pregnant and I found other channels I liked better. I found it odd that she was GF/DF by choice, thinking it is healthier. Nothing against DF, I’m vegan

but her idea of healthy foods is so backwards. Just eat whole foods, mostly plant based! Her multiple workouts per day never reallyyyy struck me as odd because I like a two workout day myself sometimes, but I think there is a lot of restrictive behavior that happens off camera.
I’m ashamed that I almost bought Tropeaka powders, but the customs price for shipping to the UK stopped me! I’ve never bought any SD related products. At one point I screenshotted a picture after she cut her hair shorter and even showed it to my sister saying “her hair is so cute, I want to cut my hair like this” (embarrassing to admit lol), but my hair is thin and ashy blonde just like Sarah’s natural(!) hair.
From May 2020 until December I took a break, so I missed a lot of the recent scandals (bushfires, BIPOC, etc). I got sucked back in a few weeks ago and have since read through all the GG and Tattle threads. I previously read GOMI threads about Healthy Living Bloggers, so Tattle is right up my alley. I love hearing the unfiltered opinions and reactions to her carefully curated “instastories” and videos.
I’m so curious what her average age demographic is.. a few people I know and some of my favorite vegan YouTubers follow her and I want to reach out to them and be like “wake upppp this chick is nuts,” but I haven’t. Haha.
Off topic, but I just started following Earthy Andy and wow - it’s refreshing to see someone who is actually loving towards her partner! When is the last time Sarah was slightly affectionate to Kurt on camera?? Ugh.
