Adele Kamel Whitley is a Mindset & Transformational Coach who’s helping people “live an unapologetically authentic life”.

This is Adele’s second time on the show and, like last time, this is half podcast episode, half coaching session for me!

Adele is great and certainly has a very direct approach when it comes to calling you out on your nonsense and unpicking your self-talk. I appreciate that approach and her clients appreciate it too - interestingly she told me after we finished recording that 80% of her clients are men. 
 
I hope you get as much out of this conversation as I did. If you’re struggling with making a change in your life, lacking direction, doubting yourself, limiting beliefs then this one is definitely for you.

In this episode I talk to Adele about:

- Why, when I had so many options for career, living situation, projects, in front of me I froze and didn’t take action

- The key steps you should take if you want to make changes in your life

- What it means to be a people-pleaser and how you can let go of those tendencies

- What her hairdresser taught her about facing up to the truth

- & much more
