Welcome to The Waffle Shop!
Joining me in the studio is the brilliant Ellie Forsyth!
Ellie joins me for a waffle about her journey to happiness, healing, and self-discovery.
Ellie opens up about her formative years, the emotional armour she built through family dynamics, and her career in the prison service, which reinforced her need to appear strong. But behind the bravado was a woman searching for peace and purpose.
Ellie also opens up about her Mum's dementia diagnosis and how it became a pivotal moment that forced her to confront grief, seek support, and redefine her idea of happiness.
We also explore the importance of therapy, vulnerability, and community, and how sharing your story—no matter how painful—can not only transform your own life but also help others feel seen and supported.
The episode also touches on Ellie’s own podcast, You Look Happier, which was born from her own healing process.
This episode is a reminder that happiness isn’t found—it’s built, one brave step at a time.
