Food, body image, and self-worth sit at the centre of Elle Mace's work as a psychology and wellbeing speaker and educator. She helps audiences understand disordered eating, diet culture, and body image not as willpower problems but as psychological ones.
Trained in hypnotherapy, CBT, NLP, and positive psychology, and currently studying psychotherapy, Elle also holds CIMSPA accreditation as a fitness professional and designs CIMSPA and CPD-accredited courses for fitness and sports professionals. She is also the author of Food Freedom, a practical guide for women looking to rebuild their relationship with food, body image, and self-worth.
On the corporate circuit, Elle has become a regular voice for organisations such as Bloomberg, the Met Office, Lloyds Bank, Gymshark, and the NHS, alongside universities and colleges across the UK. Beyond her core specialism, she is frequently booked to speak on resilience, burnout, imposter syndrome, moving from surviving to thriving, and peak performance.
Elle's work extends past the boardroom: she founded Elevate Festival in Devon, with proceeds going to MND awareness, hosts the More to Life podcast, and runs Morning Tide, a community built around sea swimming, meditation, and yoga. She has featured in HELLO!, Stylist, The Guardian, The Independent, The Telegraph, and on BBC Morning Live and BBC Radio.
Book Elle for psychology that feels human rather than clinical: warm, direct, and refreshingly honest in equal measure.
Topics, sessions and talks
Our relationship with food and our bodies isn't about willpower, it's psychological. Elle Mace breaks down why so many high-performing people get stuck in cycles of restriction, guilt, and self-criticism, and what it takes to break free. Drawing on food psychology, body image research, and her debut book, Food Freedom, the talk gives audiences a clearer understanding of their own behaviours and practical tools to shift their self-talk, with a version focused on confidence and performance at work.
Resilience isn't about pushing through, it's a skill that can be built. Elle Mace explores the psychology of resilience, why some people bounce back from setbacks while others get stuck, and how teams and individuals can build genuine capacity to handle pressure without burning out. The session is practical and psychology-backed, giving audiences a clearer understanding of their own stress responses and concrete ways to build resilience that hold up in high-pressure work environments.
Burnout isn't just tiredness, it's a psychological and physiological state with real warning signs, most of which get missed or ignored until it's too late. Elle Mace unpacks what's actually happening in the mind and body during burnout, how to recognise the early signs in yourself and your team, and what genuinely helps recovery versus what just papers over the cracks. Audiences leave with a clearer picture of where they or their colleagues stand, and what to do next.
That nagging feeling of not belonging or being found out holds back even the most capable people. Elle Mace explores where imposter syndrome comes from psychologically, why it disproportionately affects high achievers, and gives audiences practical tools to quieten that voice and operate with genuine confidence. Drawing on her background in psychology and coaching, she shows how the same self-doubt that undermines performance can be recognised early and worked with rather than ignored.
Performance isn't just about doing more, it's about operating from a psychologically healthy foundation. Elle Mace draws on resilience, self-worth, and behavioural psychology to show what actually separates people who are merely surviving high-pressure roles from those who are genuinely thriving in them. Audiences come away with practical strategies they can apply immediately, along with a clearer, more honest sense of what genuine, sustainable performance looks like day to day for them and their teams.
