"As a working mother who went back to work when my baby was 4 months old, I resonated with her relatable messages. Dr Ellen Joan is a powerhouse but also fun and vibrant."

"Ellen provided many thought provoking ideas which resonated well with me having a young family and trying to be present in their lives while trying to succeed in business."

"Ellen gave me ideas and insights, and it left me feeling inspired and hopeful!"

"I felt like I wasn’t able to give my all to my work, my kids or anything in my life. I just about cried because everything she spoke about resonated with me. #WorkSchoolHours is clearly well researched and she makes it known how this initiative is beneficial to everyone, not just parents."

"Ellen is so passionate it is so empowering to listen to. As a businesswoman and Mum of 2 young children #WorkSchoolHours excites and inspires me to continue practising this in my own business."

"For me as a rural mum juggling the farm with a few leadership hats, there were lots of ‘uh ha’ moments around maintaining a sense of belonging personally and enabling this in others around me."

"Her practical recommendations resonated deeply with me and her knowledge, passion, and ability to connect are truly remarkable."

"You’re a true blessing. You have woken our senses. Keep being amazing!"

"Nothing short of brilliant. It left me feeling motivated and empowered."

"Ellen's authenticity and genuine passion for the subject shone through, making her message all the more compelling".

"I was able to be at my sons athletics day last week for the first time. Thank you for inspiring me."

"Ellen, I struggle to articulate just how much of a difference you’ve made, but just know we are eternally grateful that we felt empowered to make the changes we did for our family to thrive - you played a major role in this."
