In this quick and easy episode, Adele shares how she won the Best Storyteller 2025 Speaker Award. Drawing on her early years in theatre and opera, some painful rejections, and a wobble of self-doubt over one lukewarm feedback comment, she shows how backing yourself and applying anyway is the real difference-maker and invites you to consider where you're ready to step forward next.
