About this episode
Welcome to our brand new mini catch-up series, where we reconnect with past guests to see where life has taken them since they last joined the podcast.
In this episode, host Ffion sits down with Ellie Boatman, who first appeared in Season 1, opening up about her experience with disordered eating in elite sport.
Today’s conversation goes deeper, as Ellie shares some of the challenging moments she’s faced recently — from serious injury to career uncertainty after redundancy, then the emotional impact of her mum’s cancer returning.
This honest and heartfelt catch-up is a reminder that even the strongest athletes face seasons of struggle — and that sharing those stories show how you should be kind, always.
