Description

This episode, Ellen Atlanta returns to reveal her three essentials: joyful Zumba classes at her local leisure centre, the comfort of home and relationships, and the simple pleasure of sweets and cheese. Together, we talk about why movement should be about feeling good, not punishment; how community brings genuine connection; and why a balanced approach to self-care matters more than“perfect” wellness routines. From building intergenerational friendships to embracing life at home (and on the sofa), Ellen shares honest insights on redefining wellbeing according to what brings true happiness, not just what looks good online. If you’ve ever questioned gym culture, wanted to find more joy in movement, or yearned for self-acceptance, this episode is for you.
