Michelle Ellison has been an adventurer, author, speaker, film producer and podcast club host since connecting with her love of the outdoors back in 2015. She has since paddle boarded the length of the River Thames for citizen science, the longest fjord in Norway, the English Channel, and more recently the width of England along the Liverpool and Leeds canal to support mental health awareness. Describing herself as a self professed non-athlete, but someone who'll throw herself full body into a physical adventure, she took on cycling the length of the UK, running the width of the UK for a government petition to improve A&E care of those feeling suicidal, and climbing the highest point in every European country. 

A kiwi at heart, her mantra of ‘make shit happen’ pushes her to create new experiences for herself and others, believing in the power of connection and getting out of your comfort zone. 

When she’s not in the outdoors you’ll find Michelle scheming her latest adventure, spending hours talking to her friends and family on the phone (covid-times), binging on netflix and tending to her career in HR.
