This episode follows Ella Grace Grows, a local runner and marketer whose story moves from childhood pressure and food anxiety to marathon training, entrepreneurship, and landing in a role that actually fits her personality.

It is a conversation about health anxiety, self-image, consistency, and learning how to build a life around what matters most.We discuss Ella’s early school years, how running became the thing she could be good at, and how her relationship with food and exercise shifted over time.

We also get into her career path, her move away from restrictive fitness culture, and why people and purpose matter more to her than labels or job titles.

Key topics

• Ella’s early identity as a high achiever
• Why year 7 felt like a shock
• How running started
• Strength training, aesthetics, and the start of disordered eating
• What her eating disorder looked like in real life
• Orthorexia and the obsession with “healthy” eating
• Health anxiety and emetophobia
• The thyroid scare and a broader perspective on health
• Why she’s careful with online fitness advice
• Career pivots that actually made sense
• Why she left corporate environments
• Where she is now

• If you are struggling with food, exercise, or health anxiety, look at the patterns behind the behaviour, not just the behaviour itself.
• Be cautious of fitness content that promises dramatic results in unrealistic timeframes.
• If you feel yourself spiralling on symptoms, reduce the Googling and give yourself time to wait for proper answers.

In this episode, we sit down with Gabe Moore to unpack the real story behind building a business while juggling pressure, identity, and long-term ambition.

=Gabe opens up about leaving barbering after nearly 10 years, why he made the leap into supplement brand building, and how a failed first version of the product forced a pivot that changed everything.

We also get into the mindset behind going “all in,” the reality of burnout, the importance of structure, and why having the right people around you can make or break a business.

• Starting and rebuilding a supplement brand
• Why feedback and iteration matter
• The pressure of going all in
• Burnout, balance, and daily structure
