Ellen C. Scott is a journalist, editor, and writer, currently serving as the acting digital content director for Stylist magazine. Previously, she was the lifestyle and weekend editor at Metro, where she co-created and co-hosted the mental health podcast "Mentally Yours", which was shortlisted for a Mind Media Award. At Metro, she developed successful online content series such as "What I Rent", "How I Save", "Better Living", and "Getting Better", which focused on her experiences with OCD and depression, significantly increasing the site's traffic and reader engagement.
Ellen coined the term ‘chronoworking’ and was among the first to address topics like quiet quitting and bare minimum Mondays in online media. She has a keen interest in work culture, career relationships, and finding satisfaction in professional life. This interest is evident in her discussions as co-host on Bruce Daisley's podcast, "Eat, Sleep, Work, Repeat", and in her contributions to the "Working On Purpose" newsletter.
In addition to her journalism, Ellen writes fiction and is currently working on a novel and several short stories.
