I\u2019m sure I\u2019m not the only one who has been experiencing a lot of ups and downs with the uncertainty and chaos of this year so far and I can\u2019t think of anyone better to give us some perspective and guidance on getting through adversity than the divine Elle Halliwell. Hers is a story I can never hear too many times that brings forth every ounce of emotion I have in admiration and awe and I\u2019m so grateful she has shared it again today for the yay-borhood.\n\nElle began in the world of journalism applying her incredible work ethic to climbing from making coffees to becoming a fashion editor at The Sunday Telegraph at just 21. She worked herself to the bone for almost a decade until just after her 30th birthday when her and her husband starting to think about having children. In the course of some preparatory blood tests, despite having no symptoms, Elle was diagnosed with a rare form of incurable Leukaemia. And, within the same 48 hours, she also discovered that she was pregnant leaving her with an impossible and unimaginable choice \u2013 to terminate and pursue treatment or continue with her pregnancy but risk not making it through.\n\nRest assured, Elle\u2019s story has a very happy and heart-warming ending \u2013 her beautiful boy Tor is now three and Elle is absolutely thriving with a glow that belies what she\u2019s been through. She has since completely changed her life and direction and has also just started her first business, Auricle, which you\u2019ll hear all about shortly. Elle speaks so eloquently about what her experience has taught her about uncertainty, self-belief and strength and I think we can all take so many lessons from her wisdom. I hope you enjoy listening as much as I did.\n\n+ Follow Elle here\n+ Announcements on Insta at @spoonful_of_sarah\n+ Join our Facebook community here\n+ Subscribe to not miss out on the next instalment of YAY!
