Welcome to the Peaceful Power Podcast today I chat with Ellen Trotter all about setting habits that will last the entire year.

 

Introduction

Ellen and I were in the same mastermind group now 2 years ago. I just love everything Ellen is doing and she reminds me of a younger Andrea : )  She is so passionate about helping women achieve confidence, and a better body image by strength training to show them what they are capable of achieving.

Background on Ellen Trotter

Ellen Trotter has gone from athlete to coach on the soccer field and in the weight room. Originally falling in love with weightlifting by training for soccer in college, she has pursued her dream by creating her life intentionally through what fulfills her. Personal training 1:1 clients and in group bootcamp settings as well as customized online coaching, and teaching in the kinesiology department at South Western Oklahoma State University feed her soul daily. Online, she works with busy high achiever women striving to build their ideal body, confidence, and career through 1:1 customized training and in her monthly group coaching ET’s Coaching Club.

LEarn My Story

My work is rooted in the belief that healing is not linear, but cyclical—like the seasons, like the womb. I help women reclaim their vitality through the sacred tools of Ayurveda, embodied movement, and intuitive rituals drawn from Mother Nature herself.

After the birth of my first son in 2016, Ayurveda became more than a practice—it became my lifeline. The postpartum window cracked me open and reoriented my path, deepening my devotion to supporting women in every season of life—from the fertile soil of postpartum to the sacred shifts of midlife.

I’m also the host of the Peaceful Power Podcast, where I explore how ancient wisdom meets modern life, and the author of two books on cyclical living—Divine Body Wisdom and Ayurvedic Approach to Healing Your Menstrual Cycle.

When I’m not in sacred space with clients, you can find me playing tennis, watching Hallmark mysteries, sipping my morning coffee with reverence, or adventuring on nature trails with my two boys and husband. 

an Ayurvedic Wellness Counselor & Postpartum Doula, 500 HR Yoga Teacher, and Personal Trainer who has been guiding women back to their inner rhythms since 2007.
