Episode 4: Elle Russ

In this wide ranging and surprisingly vulnerable interview at Elle’s top secret crib/film and recording studio in the Santa Monica mountains, Elle describes the unlikely journey to her current position as a thyroid expert and health author, coach, and speaker. Dang, a few years ago Elle was doing personal assistant work (“window or aisle on that flight?”) for the Sisson family! She dreamed of writing a book about her arduous journey to healing your thyroid naturally, and finally made the dream a reality with the publication of The Paleo Thyroid Solution. For the past couple years, Elle has been promoting the book nonstop and it has sold through five printings. Elle mentions how her commitment to improv acting classes helps her gain confidence as a podcast host and public speaker. “If you can get on stage and do improv in front of strangers, you can do anything!”
