This decision would be the catalyst for her impressive career to date.\n  <\/p>\n<p>\n    Her career took a sharp turn upon moving, away from the glitz and glam of TV and into the world of real estate \u2013 a career that she still enjoys to this day.\n  <\/p>\n<p>\n    Her current TV career happened totally by accident. Although unexpected, Ellie\u2019s creative instinct and desire to create made her a natural in the entertainment industry.\n  <\/p>\n<p>\n    <img   style=\"width: 100%;\"\/>Ellie moved to LA after her humble beginnings in Barry (Image: Ellie Greenberg) Whilst renovating a home during COVID, Ellie took it upon herself to document some of the \u2018strange\u2019 goings on that occurred while they worked, piquing the interest of neighbours. One of these elderly neighbours would enlist Ellie to flip her basement and, as word of mouth spread, Ellie found herself flipping more and more. From caravans to wedding rings, there wasn\u2019t much that Ellie couldn\u2019t flip.\n  <\/p>\n<p>\n    She had finally found her calling.\n  <\/p>\n<p>\n    Ellie said: \u201cI realized that my whole life I thought I needed to be famous, but this was because of the trauma of being bullied. I wanted to change because of these bad memories and wanted to be someone different to the girl who was bullied.\n  <\/p>\n<p>\n    \u201cI found that through this process of helping people I healed my trauma and that\u2019s where I found my true passion.\u201d\n  <\/p>\n<p>\n    Her current life in Los Angeles is entirely different to \u2018that girl from Barry\u2019, but Ellie claims that she will always remember her roots.\n  <\/p>\n<p>\n    She said: \u201cWhen you\u2019ve lived two sides of the coin, it really does something to you as a person. I struggled growing up, and I know that the struggle is real.\u201d\n  <\/p>\n<p>\n    This is when her brand-new TV show Flipped came to life.\n  <\/p>\n<p>\n    In addition to the uplifting, relatable reality televisions show, Ellie will soon be launching her podcast, \u201cHigh Tea With Ellie G,\u201d which will be available to follow on major platforms across the globe.\n  <\/p>\n<p>\n    Each of the ten episodes of Flipped Lifestyle are dedicated to helping a new person live their authentic lives and become their true selves, with all the funds coming from Ellie\u2019s own pockets.\n  <\/p>\n<p>\n    While some of the flips are unable to be shown on television due to the subjects\u2019 circumstances, Ellie still commits her time, effort and money to help these people behind closed doors.\n  <\/p>\n<p>\n    The show itself is all the best parts of your favourite reality shows, just \u2018without the fighting\u2019. Its uplifting and gives a refreshing take on the genre, whilst impacting the lives of those involved.\n  <\/p>\n<p>\n    Ellie\u2019s fairy godmother persona allows her to use her rags to riches story for good, giving people the opportunity to be their true selves without judgement, no matter how \u2018silly\u2019 it may seem to others.\n  <\/p>\n<p>\n    Not only is Ellie working behind the scenes and creating magic, she has also been filming for a first feature film where she is in front of the camera playing a role. Her desire to learn and grow consistently has been the drive that has gotten Ellie to the top in her career.\n  <\/p>\n<p>\n    She said: \u201cThe fact that people have trusted me to share their stories and that I can do them justice and make something good for them? There\u2019s not a better feeling than that in the world.\u201d\n  <\/p>\n<p>\n    Flipped is available to watch on Lifestyle and will be available to watch in the UK soon.\n  <\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"After years of bullying, Ellie made the decision at 16 years of age to move away from home&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":2,"featured_media":71094,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":""},"categories":[29],"tags":[96,391,56,54,55],"class_list":["post-71093","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-tv","tag-entertainment","tag-tv","tag-uk","tag-united-kingdom","tag-unitedkingdom"],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/71093","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/2"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=71093"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/71093\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/71094"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=71093"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=71093"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/uk\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=71093"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
