We initially fell in love with Julie Goodwin 15 years ago during the first season of MasterChef. Her simple, honest food resonated with so many of us.
After winning the show, Julie was in demand and had a hectic media career which included hosting an award-winning breakfast radio show, publishing numerous cookbooks, writing a regular column for Australian Women’s Weekly, and presenting on Today. She was even seen making her signature cupcakes in the jungle on I’m a Celebrity Get Me Out of Here! It was by all appearances, a successful, rewarding life.
What we didn’t see was the mounting pressure of success. Julie struggled with depression, anxiety and addiction, and was admitted to a mental health facility.
Her new book Your Time Starts Now is a gloriously candid, deeply moving memoir, filled with beautiful food, astonishing people, humour and heart.
In this very special Newcastle Writers Festval event, Julie speaks about her extraordinary experiences and how they have shaped who she is today.
