'What's it like to be a nude model?' - my BBC interview!

NSFW

A time stamp would be helpful - 3 hours is a tad long to search through :(

Just a thought :)

She showed a genuine interest in you and modelling and no cliched questions either.

1:20:45 -> "I posed in arctic winds in Norway" :-)

I think you came across really well. You didn't sound at all nervous. Well done! 

Thank you for mentioning the times you were on in your post. That found it really easy for me to find, and didn't have to search through at all. 

Interesting conversation - Congratulations.  I'm grateful for the note you included in your post with the times of the clips and a brief explanation 'cos I thought your lotions were called ufology rather than Leafology (tin ears or what?)

Well done

d o o d y o n e I did mention the times, right after the link. :)

Gregory Mason yeah she had a really open, positive attitude - it was great!

LightAndShape haha, I love telling people about it for the sympathy vote, but secretly it was a total pleasure to work with you - really fun and such a memorable experience, I'm really grateful! :-)

Danny Molyneux thank you! :)

Dek14 haha, I don't think my line was that clear and I probably sounded a bit muffled, but yes Leafology!

Ahhh, I was too eager to listen. I should’ve read on… apologies 🤭

Hi everyone! Just wanted to share that I was contacted recently by BBC Radio Oxford to be interviewed by the lovely Fleur Ostojak about my experiences of what it's like to be a nude model.

I was a bit nervous as had never spoken on radio before, but said yes - and I really enjoyed our conversation and the chance to reflect on the nude modelling industry.

If you'd like to listen, here's the link on BBC Sounds, available for 29 more days: https://www.bbc.co.uk/sounds/play/p09f6ldc
It was broadcast yesterday evening, and my chat with her is split into two parts, beginning just before the 1h11min mark and then again at around 1h19.

There is so much I could have said in response to her interesting questions (e.g. she asked me about misconceptions about the industry, how I have the confidence to do it, whether or not it's liberating, how things have been through lockdown, how Leafology has been keeping me busy, etc. etc.) and I couldn't possibly have fit everything in to a fairly short conversation - I am actually writing a book about life as a nude model, bit by bit - but I loved sharing a small part of this world with the wider public.

I'm loving this evening series Fleur's doing - she's been speaking to some really interesting people. Highly recommended and I'm really happy and honoured to be a part of it!

Interesting interview. Well worth a listen.

Great interview, well done Ella :)

So nice to hear you voice again :D Surprised you mention Arctic wind in Norway and not snowing on a pass in Iceland :P
Hopefully you visit this year to watch the Northern lights

Really interesting from an amazing model
