Resourceful Recommendations
from Ellie
Welcome—I’m so glad you’re here. Over the years, I’ve come across books, podcasts, and teachings that have deeply resonated with me and the clients I’ve had the privilege to work with. These resources are offered with care and intention—each one a gentle companion on the path of healing, growth, and self-discovery. I hope you find something here that speaks to your heart, affirms your journey, or simply reminds you that you’re not alone.
