About my Podcast
Elle McLeod hosts The Real Nitty Gritty Podcast, an aptly-titled new venture designed to bridge the gap between baby boomers and the modern era, with personal storytelling, family traditions, rituals, health and healing advice, and plenty more.
Elle’s approach is both structured and free-flowing at times, an authentic walk down memory lane but lightly guided by a conceptual intention, which helps make each episode reach out and connect with all who’ve lived through similar experiences as baby boomers.
Unfiltered and raw by nature, The Real Nitty Gritty Podcast is the epitome of real talk by real people. Elle McLeod reflects lovingly upon her life, and fearlessly gets vulnerable, even regretful sometimes, and in the process comforts and inspires listeners, by openly facing the inevitability of aging and embracing the modern world as a citizen and product of the baby boomer era.
