Happy Place

Adele Roberts: Bowel cancer, marathons, and mashed potato


Listen Later

Cancer, and having a stoma, has changed DJ and broadcaster Adele Roberts’ perception of her own body for the better. It’s shown her it’s ok to cry, and it’s ok to ask for help.

 

In this chat with Fearne, Adele talks through the symptoms of bowel cancer, what the experience has taught her about positive mindset, as well as the realities of going through chemo.

 

They also chat about why it’s never too late to embrace and practice a new passion later in life, and why it’s important not to write off the entire day just because it started a bit crap.

 

Personal Best, Adele’s memoir, is out on the 11th of April.

Hosted on Acast. See acast.com/privacy for more information.
