are you about to start university this year? are you nervous to be a "fresher"? do you feel like it's not really talked about enough? i'm here today to talk about all the pros and cons of university, especially as a fresher. i go into deep detail about my darker days at uni, but also shed light on the positives and share my experience as to explain why now (in a long winded process) that I am happy to be going into my second year and glad i didn't drop out, like i thought i would. 

top tip: it's scary for EVERYONE, but you're all in the same boat :) enjoy it and let your hair down! first year is all about making friends and getting comfrtable with leaving home and becoming an adult, although a year later and i still feel like i'm 17!!!

another episode out this week all about giving yourself permission to restart. wherever you are at on your journey (mental, physical, spiritual and emotional), you are allowed to pause and take a few steps back to go on forward. it's ok to get frustrated at yourself when things don't go your way. but be proud of yourself for all those little milestones and achievements that may otherwise go unnoticed. you're doing so well, never forget that. keep pushing forwards and remember that there is always a positive in each day, it's just that some days you have to dig a little further to see it.

since I turned 19 last week I thought it was apt to talk about 19 things I have learned over my lifetime, from friends to self-growth. it's a longer episode but I enjoyed recording it despite the 38 degree heat currently in England!!!

hey guys, this episode is a mish-mash of me blurting my excitement for barcelona this weekend (ahh!), redefining food freedom and my recovery journey, and accepting that sometimes what we once thought life would look like and how we planned it to go might go a different way - and that's totally ok (and what makes life exciting and not monotonous!!) enjoy and you'll hear from me next week all about the trip and my birthday!! <3

hey it's been so long but i've finally managed to get out an episode after the last few crazy ass weeks being home from uni and going on holidays!! today i'm talking about acceptance, travel, having a growth mindset, and learning that favouring solitude over camaraderie (or social time) is not always good, and that working on yourself is a whole new ball game when you've got to do that in the company of others. please enjoy, rate, review + share <3

hey, welcome back to yet another episode! today i'm rambling on (no surprise there) about how today i have thoroughly enjoyed the presence of other people and not thought twice about my own life and worries - it was basically just really refreshing to step outside my own bubble for a day. also i talk about being proud of yourself and congratulating yourself on your little daily wins, no matter how big or small. this is something as humans we don't ever do but i think it's time to start being more 'self-obsessed' if you like, and take pride in our own achievements instead of shunning them away and disregarding them!

hey guys, welcome back to another episode of This Is Just The Beginning! i'm back talking about diet culture and eating disorders once again – so TRIGGER WARNING in case of any one going through eating disorders/recovery right now, as i do get into quite deep diet-culture related things like calorie restriction and exercise addiction. please be mindful of that and only listen if you think you're ready/in a good stage right now <3! a lot of what i address is also just my opinion so please take it as lightly as you can and hopefully it educates you a little bit on the toxicity of the world of diet culture, fads and social media promoting these 'low cal recipes' and 'HIIT workouts that will help you lose twenty pounds!!' (because these things are so toxic and i promise you they won't help!!). enjoy and leave a rate & review. *REMEMBER to please only listen if you think you are able to!!* big love, ellie <3

hi! another episode this week all about spontaneity. nowadays, especially since the pandemic, spontaneity has kinda gone out the window. we all live in tight routines of 9-5 jobs or school, living under rules and structure. when was the last time you did something truly fun & so out of the blue? do something today, tomorrow to spice things up. whether that's go to a different coffee shop or take a different route home. doing these acts of spontaneity really do shake up your day and builds up serotonin and prevents life from feeling some mundane and boring (as we all know it can be from time to time!)
