THE MOST ANTICIPATED PODCAST DROP SINCE #NEWHEIGHTS.In this heartfelt and deeply personal episode of The Story of Us, host Jeff Ellison welcomes a very special guest—his daughter, Peyton Marie Ellison. At just 21, Peyton has already lived a life brimming with travel, creativity, and courage. A student at the University of Tennessee, writer of the inspiring blog Pieces of P, and a fearless explorer of both the world and herself, Peyton brings wisdom well beyond her years to the microphone.Together, father and daughter reflect on her journey so far: from the lessons of growing up in Kentucky, to transformative moments abroad, to her recent three-month internship in New York City. Peyton opens up about self-love, confidence, and learning the difference between loneliness and solitude. She shares candidly about body image struggles, pivotal travel experiences, and the power of manifesting dreams—not as blind fate, but as intentional action guided by clarity and courage.The conversation flows like a kitchen-table chat, blending humor, tenderness, and insight. Listeners will hear stories of Paris and Morocco, Manhattan apartments and Santorini sunsets, as well as Peyton’s reflections on writing as a way of bottling memories like vials of sand. With grace and authenticity, she reminds us that happiness isn’t the absence of problems, but the strength to face them.Whether you’re navigating your 20s, raising a child, or simply seeking inspiration, this episode offers a reminder to “go be great,” to say yes to joy, and to trust in the unfolding chapters of your own story.
