Brett Gilliland: Welcome to the Circuit of Success. I'm your host, Brett Gilliland. Today I've got Elle Scott with me. Elle, how you doing?
Elle Scott: I'm doing fantastic. Thanks for having me.
Brett Gilliland: It's a little warmer, I believe, where you're at. It's uh, just a tad warmer, maybe like 60, 70 degrees warmer...
Elle Scott: Maybe, like 85.
Brett Gilliland: Yeah.
Elle Scott: ...but I'm not rubbing it in.
Brett Gilliland: No, exactly. And that's okay. That's okay. At least I'm looking out, I'm seeing sunshine and it's beautiful out. Uh, at least, uh, you know, as beautiful as it can be in January, or I guess February now, isn't it? February here in Greater St. Louis area. So, Well, Elle we're gonna dive into a lot of great stuff.
We're gonna talk mindset, we're gonna talk, uh, iridology or you're an iridologist, which if I'm even saying that correctly, I am new to this. I am learning about it. I saw you on another podcast. I'm like, Hey, we gotta get her on here and learn about this. Uh, but before we do that, uh, I would love to just kind of dive into the backstory of what's made you, the woman you are today and what's gotten you to where you're, where you've gotten.
Elle Scott: Sure. So, uh, first of all, a huge fan of mindset, and I had the privilege of being raised by two entrepreneurs. So my mom and my dad, who were mainly in the real estate and construction field, and they were introduced to a lot of mindsets. So as a young child, you know, 10, 11 years old, I'm readingAhmed Dino and Zig Zigler.
Yeah, . Um, and of course the, the all famous Napoleon Hill, which, uh, I consider that guy. My, my mentor though, never met him. Yeah. But his books are very impactful to me, and so that was always at the forefront growing up, and I ate it up. I wanted to know everything about how one manifests, how one directs energy.
So I was that kid. And I also had a very strong desire to be successful. And, you know, I had done a lot of different things. I tend, uh, or had bounced around to a lot of different industries and tried different things. Did the, did the high school, college, uh, played college, uh, collegiate golf, uh, for Irvine, and that was fantastic and fun.
Uh, but I wanted to try something else and really make it into something that would make me a lot of money. Not that golf wouldn't professionally.
Brett Gilliland: Right.
Elle Scott: But it's, I wasn't that competitive...
Brett Gilliland: A little bit different deal.
Elle Scott: ...I was that. Right, I was that gal that, you know, told my coach, well, why can't I smoke a cigar and wear, you know, skirts while we're competing?
He's like, you're not college material [inaudible]
Brett Gilliland: That's not how it works.
Elle Scott: Exactly. Uh, so, uh, right out of college went into technology sales, so, software, Um, I mean obviously at the time there was still, uh, we were still using mainframe. We were still using Excel as base for our software programs and such. And so I got an early started to software sales.
Uh, worked a lot with the state, uh, state government, and then went into more software and then cloud, and spent about 17 years in that industry, which I absolutely loved. There was just, you know, different types watching. This, the technology advanced so quickly. Obviously business acumen, I gotta travel. I worked from home, made my own schedule, so I got really, really spoiled very, very quickly and, and really enjoyed that.
But during those times of working from home, I was doing a lot of humanitarian work. also something instilled in me as a young kid, you know, we were constantly, uh, supporting families in different countries in need and things that were more on the home front, like helping rebuild schools for Indian reservations and such.
So all of this formulated kind of this, this drive to maybe move away from the technology realm. I was immensely successful in it, but eventually wanted to kinda move away into something else, and that's where kinda iridology comes in.
Brett Gilliland: Yeah. So tell us, uh, tell our listeners what, what is iridology? So for, for a guy like me that doesn't know anything other than obviously has something to do with the eye, uh, what is iridology?
Elle Scott: Sure. So iridology is the only soft tissue analysis at present, uh, that exists. And basically it's a snapshot of your entire system or your entire health. So lymphatic system, skeletal, uh, muscular organs, uh, you know, endocrine system, and then the skin and digestion, all of it as a whole is a picture of your health and it's historic information.
So, for example, um, you know, you're, you're formed in a womb and the genetics that are passed down, we can see some genetic, uh, in or inherit weaknesses or dispositions within the iris. But basically we use all that information from, you know, womb to now and basically build a roadmap to your health and where you wanna go with that.
So it's, it's pretty fascinating. It's eerily accurate. So my, one of my favorite things about iridology is I won't know a single thing about your health, about who you are. Some, I don't even know they're genders, which is a question I obviously have to ask depending on...
Brett Gilliland: Sure.
Elle Scott: ...uh, things that show up in the eye.
But then I returned that analysis back to that person and they look at me like I just did some sort of witchcraft because it's that accurate.
Brett Gilliland: And so what, so are you doing this with an eye? I mean, am I taking a picture of my eye right now and texting it to you and then we're gonna do this live on the podcast?
Or like what? Like what do we do here? Like how do we do this? What, what is somebody listening this, what do they take away from that?
Elle Scott: Yeah, great question. So, you know, back in the day and, and iridology's been around since the 1800s. The suspect is, it's actually been around since, you know, ancient Egyptian times, but nothing's documented or things that we can't understand.
But, uh, up until the 1800s, it's been, um, a, a study. And then, uh, Dr. Bernard Jensen brought it into the states in the 1900s and it became a practice. But the technology, of course now we have is in our hands, and we can use the cameras in our phones and most of my clients are from all over the world, and they do take a closeup picture with their phone and send it to me for analysis.
I also can take it with, uh, what I call the magic cam and it's this Frankenstein created custom camera that gets up really super close in the right lighting and it can get these super crazy cool pictures, but it's not necessary anymore because of the technology we have in our phones.
Brett Gilliland: That's amazing. So, so if I did that and I send it to you in your office, and, and so what, what type of stuff are you telling me?
So again, for our listeners or people watching, I'm taking a picture of my, eye you know, with my iPhone of my eyeball, I'm sending it to you. So like, what are some examples of things that you've done lately to help people you know, better their lives, right. Become the best version of them all from a dang picture, from their eyeball.
What is it?
Elle Scott: Yeah. Gosh. I mean, it's, it's everything from getting their energy source back. Right, I mean, you have people out there who have hardly any energy or they're in constant pain. Um, I tend to, to move away from using, um, you know, labels because, but it's easier for people to understand that. So like arthritic type symptoms to anything from a stage 2, 3, 4, 5 type of situation.
Brett Gilliland: Wow.
Elle Scott: Um, and we really only use, and, and all we're using is information that the nervous system is returning to the iris, right? And saying, Hey, I'm in this part of distress. A lot of this information you could not even be experiencing in your, now this could be stuff that we see that could, that could actually become an issue in the future.
So it's, it's even, it's even more of, um, a preemptive strike, if you will.
Brett Gilliland: Yeah.
Elle Scott: To some of the health issues. But, um, mainly what I'm doing is, is my focus is a lymphatic system, because literally that's the only way for someone to get healthy at, at, at a, at a deep level, healthy to get out, you know, systemic pain and chronic issues.
We always go back to lymphatic system because that's your sewer system, and that's where we focus in our work to help people, you know, relieve what, whatever it's.
Brett Gilliland: And, and let's, so let's just assume I had that issue, right? And I had this pain and I had this lymphatic system that needed the cleaning out. So then what is it?
Is it my diet? Is it exercise? Is it, uh, you know, taking vitamins? Is it all the above? What does that look like?
Elle Scott: Sure. So, uh, you know, there's different levels of detox and we, we call it detox and really it's cleansing, but it's a deep cleansing, right? It's something that not a lot of people really utilize, but is becoming more popular as we start to, you know, deep dive into the science.
But, um it's really mainly through diet. You figure your sewer system is everything affected by what you take into your body. So from the deepest levels of detoxification, we're talking, of course, changing it up to more of the base chemistry. When I say base chemistry, I mean there's only two sides of chemistry.
There's the acid side, which is corrosive,
Brett Gilliland: Welcome to the Circuit of Success. I'm your host, Brett Gilliland. Today I've got Elle Scott with me. Elle, how you doing?
