Pivot! A Vegan Business Interview Series

After healing from her own struggles with disordered eating and a distorted body image, Ella Mager wanted to help people align their actions with their values, develop a healthy relationship with food and their bodies, and create a joyful and meaningful life. She earned her Master’s Degree in social work, and began to develop a compassionate curriculum for her clients to follow.Now, having applied that curriculum she’s helped hundreds of clients embrace movement, design plant-based nutritional plans, and return to their spiritual roots. As the founder of Sexy Fit Vegan, and previous trainer to celebrity athletes like A-Rod, Ella has built an international audience to include 60k followers across her social platforms serving the world as a speaker, author, podcast host and coach. She believes that our bodies and overall health deserve the same commitment, love, and dedication as all other aspects of life. While entrepreneurs have earned accolades, achieved massive success, seemingly conquering it all, many of us have neglected the one asset that can’t be bought–our HEALTH. In this episode, Ella shares ways that we can stop playing small with our health and offers ways to embrace movement, design plan-based nutritional plans and return to our spiritual roots.

Quote 

“We get addicted to the doing and the doing and the productivity, and thinking that's the only way we're worthy of walking this planet. So coming back to that space of taking a breath–we don't have to be doing something every moment of every day. What can we do to start to make some time for ourselves to find that peace in just simply being.” 

– Ella Magers
