Adaleta Avdić was born in Bosnia in the early '90s and came to the United States as a refugee when she was 5 years old. Having escaped a life of hardship and war, her and her family arrived in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania where they were part of a Catholic refugee rescue, taken in by a Catholic priest and his family. The help from the church allowed Avdić's family to start a new life in the United States and afforded her dad the opportunity to become a professional pilot. As his career progressed, it would take Avdić's family to Los Angeles three years later.

Avdić has been working since she was 16 and went on to graduate from the University of Arizona, with a degree in Psychology and a minor in Business Writing. Taking that writing degree to a new level, Avdić established her blog adaatude.com in 2013 as part of a senior class college project. Fast forward to present day, after years of dedicated posts, she speaks to 85K readers with 47K unique page views a month. Now known globally as @adaatude on social media, she is sought after by major brands to be their brand ambassadors. Over 600,000 followers later, Adaleta Avdić is an accomplished Social Media Influencer and well-known blogger that covers various topics including beauty, travel, lifestyle and fashion.

Beyond the blog and social media, Avdić maintains a YouTube channel with over 10K followers that engage with her videos which are uploaded once a week. She's always on the hunt for the perfect shade of lipstick, the best fitting clothes and a delicious meal while traveling and exploring the world. She actually worked as a professional in the tourism industry for 7 years before becoming a full-time blogger, so traveling is second nature to her. She even got engaged in Norway! Avdić has since settled down in Tucson, Arizona and will soon be a new homeowner. Of all her passions, she is most passionate about giving, and donating to local charities such as Casa de los Niños, and loves participating in local events and community gatherings.

Hello guys! Welcome back to another solo episode with me! Come and let's talk about how to speak with confidence!

Hi guys! Join me for another solocast. I am so happy to be able to sit down and talk to you guys about today's topic! Hope you don't mind the peacock in the background as I am recording this in the summer heat!

All moms have experience with feeling completely overwhelmed. My struggle with finding a balance goes much deeper, and that's why I have committed my life to help other moms through their burnout. Here's my confession: I have ADD, Dyslexia, and Anxiety—and I have been ashamed of that all of my life.

I was diagnosed at a very young age, but as a little black girl growing up in the suburbs, I didn't want to be any more different than I already felt. So I hid my disabilities, I struggled in silence, and I put in hard work behind the scenes to appear to be "normal." I didn't have access to medication or treatment—I had only pure grit, determination, and perseverance to help me navigate the mental maze I felt trapped in.

For me, it worked.

I used to stutter so bad I couldn't talk. Now I communicate for a living.

I remember a time when I couldn't read aloud from a book in class. Now I am a college graduate with a degree from U.C. Berkeley.

I used to be a quintessential people pleaser, doing whatever it took to be accepted no matter the cost. Now, I am advocating for myself and for others.

I spent decades turning my greatest fears and weaknesses into my ultimate strengths. But despite all my progress, I hit another wall of my maze when I encountered motherhood.

Suddenly two little girls look up to me. They walk in my high heels, they put on my makeup, and they absorb and internalize everything that they see me do.

I want my daughters to be confident, self-assured, determined, driven, and so much more. To do this, I realized I need to show them what that looks like on a daily basis. But that was easier said than done.

Like a lot of moms, I was struggling to keep my head above water every single day. Between laundry, grocery shopping, cooking, cleaning, working, chauffeuring—I was giving absolutely no time to myself. I would do this until the point of burnout, break down crying, then start the cycle all over again.

Until 2018 I was so lost in the maze of overwhelm that I forgot how strong I was, I forgot what I loved to do, I forgot how to balance my needs and the needs of others. Sound familiar? For all of the rewards of motherhood, there is a huge downside we're afraid to say out loud: Sometimes being a mom first can make you completely forget who you are.

I put my mind back into focus, using grit and determination to rediscovering me. And it was a game-changer! Like me, if you put in work, you WILL get results. But unlike me, you don't have to do it alone. That's where I come in.

From inside the maze, it is hard to believe that things can be any different. You might be feeling trapped, hopeless, frustrated, angry, sad, helpless.

If you want something, you can have it. If you are not happy with your life, you have the power to change it. The most important lesson of my life was how to take action and control of my own life—and now I am here to teach you to do the same.

I am here to help you navigate the process of rediscovering who you are so that you can show up as the best version of yourself every day! I have made my way out of the maze many times in my life, and I want to show you how.

If this resonates with you or with a mother who you see struggling, I would love to chat! I look forward to hearing your story.
