Full Plate
Hosted by former Australian netball captain Liz Ellis, Full Plate is a podcast about life, told through food. Each episode, Liz sits down with extraordinary women from all walks of life to find our what's on their plate and the meals that power them. They explore the stories, struggles, rituals and realities that shape them, through the meals they make, crave, share, or barely have time to eat. From elite athletes and comedians to chefs, frontline workers and everyday women navigating the juggle, these are honest conversations about ambition, burnout, identity, family, culture and what keeps us going. For Liz, a “full plate” once meant the pressure of elite sport. These days, it looks more like school runs, work deadlines, family life, and figuring out what’s for dinner. Warm, funny, insightful and deeply human, Full Plate serves up the stories behind the hustle, one conversation at a time.
