This week on The Mid Week Tease, Adelle explores the quiet legacy many of us carry: the wounds passed down through generations of women, and the strength we inherit too.

Adelle shares reflections on:

• The unspoken traumas women before us carried.
• The survival patterns we unconsciously repeat.
• The strength, creativity, and wisdom we also inherit.
• How to decide what ends with us and what continues.

✨ We are living proof that our lineage carried both hurt and hope. And in us, we get to decide which story continues.
