Make Time To Talk
Welcome to the “Make Time to talk” podcast.
I’m hoping to bring some light into the world during 2023 so I’ve created this podcast to try and inspire as many people as possible who are struggling to speak up and seek the help they need.
The guests coming on are talking about their personal struggles and journeys in life. This has proven to be a massive help for my own mental health, I thought I knew a lot about the subject but the more I speak to people, the more I learn.
Topics are wide-ranging and I’m trying to cover as much as I can across the board for mental health. If you’ve got a story and journey to share, then we want to hear it. This is a collective effort and I need your help to start to encourage this conversation.
I hope you enjoy the content from this podcast and don’t forget to make time to talk.

Ellie Bird - Personal Training, Travelling and Time Management - 🏋️♀️
Join Ellie, an inspiring personal trainer, in this podcast episode as she explores mental health, wellness, and empowerment through diet, exercise, and self-compassion. With seven years of experience, Ellie's journey from intern to personal trainer exemplifies her commitment to the profound connection between physical and mental well-being.
Ellie believes in the importance of balance, recognising how even a slight imbalance can impact overall well-being. Her mission is to empower individuals, with a special focus on women, by showing that fitness can seamlessly integrate into any lifestyle.
In this episode, Ellie shares her perspective on fostering a healthy relationship with food, fitness, and diet. She advocates for balance and self-compassion, encouraging you to treat yourself kindly, just as you would a friend.
Ellie begins by addressing the common scenario of occasional indulgences, like enjoying a Saturday night meal. She emphasises the need to view such moments as well-deserved treats rather than sources of guilt, highlighting the importance of self-kindness.
The conversation then shifts to daily calorie goals, particularly in the context of weight loss. Ellie suggests that strict adherence to daily calorie limits may not be sustainable. Instead, she promotes occasional deviations that align with your overall plan. Consistency over time, with room for indulgence, often proves more effective than harsh restrictions leading to binge-eating.
Join Ellie as she explores the significance of making mindful choices in relation to alcohol and food. Drawing from personal experiences and client transformations, Ellie offers a unique perspective.
Ellie underscores the importance of self-awareness, encouraging you to pay close attention to how your choices affect you, especially in the realm of physical fitness. She highlights how excessive indulgence can negatively impact overall well-being.
Join Ellie as she delves into effective time management, emphasising living in the moment and sharing her time-blocking method to gain clarity on responsibilities and deadlines.
Ellie also emphasises the crucial role of consistency in the fitness and well-being journey, advocating for small, consistent changes to lead to lifestyle improvements over time.
Ellie's primary goal is to help individuals build good habits, providing free workout resources, especially shorter workouts, to address common time constraints. Join us for this empowering podcast episode, and let Ellie inspire you to become your best self through mindful choices, self-compassion, and transformative wellness practices.
