Ella Mills: finding purpose and putting ...

The Wellness Scoop
About this episode

Welcome to Wellness with Ella, the next evolution of the Deliciously Ella podcast, where entrepreneur Ella Mills and her guests share their stories of personal transformation through the lens of vulnerability. How did they get to where they are today? What were the biggest challenges her guests have faced? What wellness practices and habits really moved the needle for them? How do they keep moving forward? 

To launch the new season, Ella is interviewed by Deliciously Ella’s Digital Director, Charlotte Clark, to unpack her own journey from a debilitating health condition in her early 20s to founding Deliciously Ella, her challenges with mental health, finding purpose, and why it took her 30 years to find happiness; as well as the hurdles and setbacks along the way and the tools Ella swears by to feel her best.

 

They discuss:

  • Ella’s experience suffering from a debilitating health condition in her early 20s
  • Navigating mental health alongside physical health challenges
  • Ella’s catalyst moment for looking at diet to improve her health
  • How sharing her journey with plant-based cooking online changed Ella’s life
  • Figuring out who you are whilst being in the spotlight
  • Accepting that life isn’t linear
  • Taking responsibility for your own health & happiness
  • Ella’s daily-ish non-negotiables to support her physical and mental health
