| 0:03.4 | Without a doubt, 100%. |
| 0:05.2 | Welcome, you're on air with Ella, where we share simple strategies and truths from people |
| 0:12.0 | who are doing something better than we are. |
| 0:14.6 | Whether it's wellness or fitness and fat loss to just living better and with more energy |
| 0:19.4 | or changing your mindset to accomplish more in |
| 0:22.4 | your own life and succeeding however you define it. This is where we share the best of what we're |
| 0:27.3 | learning from the experts and we're learning more every day. Live better, start now. Hey everyone, you're on air with Ella, and today I am with the beautiful, the lovely, the adorable Maddie Moon. |
