Who is Elle Russ:
Elle Russ, born and raised in downtown Chicago, earned a Philosophy degree from UC Santa Cruz, where she co-founded the Speech & Debate Team.

She transitioned into acting, voice-over, and sketch comedy, performing at Second City in Chicago and ACME Comedy Theatre in Los Angeles. Battling debilitating hypothyroidism, Elle took charge of her health, eventually healing herself and becoming a thyroid expert, later authoring the #1 bestselling book The Paleo Thyroid Solution. Mentored by health pioneer Mark Sisson, she became a certified Primal Health Coach and hosted over 500 episodes of the Primal Blueprint Podcast, amassing 20 million downloads.
