Step into this deeply raw and inspiring conversation with Ellen Rozman, certified health coach, wellness facilitator, and author of Full of Sht* — a brutally honest memoir about gut health, identity, and the power of healing from the inside out.
💫 Episode Highlights
Growing up Jewish in New Orleans: Ellen opens up about her childhood in a vibrant yet exclusive culture, where Mardi Gras parades met hidden prejudice — and how early lessons in inequality shaped her core values.
The making of a perfectionist: From competitive gymnastics to private-school pressures, Ellen reveals the mindset that drove her to excel — and eventually to exhaustion.
Viral Moment – “Perfection is not a human quality.”

Hear Ellen and Rich unpack how chasing perfection can become an invisible addiction that steals joy, creativity, and connection.
College revelations & reinvention: Why Ellen’s time as a Florida Gator was less about parties and more about purpose — and how she found her first calling in fashion and business.
From fashion buyer to fitness pro: Discover Ellen’s journey from high-end retail in Atlanta to teaching aerobics and running triathlons in Austin, proving reinvention is possible at every stage.
The breaking point: A life-changing health crisis — her colon literally tying in a knot — forced Ellen to face the truth about her body’s limits and the mind-body connection she’d ignored.
The rebirth: Ellen’s recovery led her to study holistic healing, gut-brain health, and the spiritual side of wellness — blending Ayurveda, astrology, and somatic movement in her integrative practice.
