Ellie Bishop - my breakdown & diagnosis led me to become an expedition leader and advocate for the outdoors

Ellie had an amazing career in textiles and design,  however coming out of a meeting with a designer in Paris she had a breakdown, at first it was thought to be work induced but through therapy it transpired that Ellie’s mental health had been compromised all her life, she suffered with anxiety as a child and she lived with it all her life but wasn’t diagnosed until after the breakdown. 

With her diagnosis she was then able to be pro active in her way of dealing with it. Hear how she turned her life around and a background passion for the outdoors into her new full time pursuit.
