You know when you hear the expression “My life flashed before my eyes?” Only now do I fully appreciate what this really meant.
On the 22nd of June 2018, I was diagnosed with stage 4 breast cancer.
This video is the first in a series of blogs where I’ll be authentically sharing my journey. The highs, the lows, the twists and turns.
Given my family history with cancer and recent death of my brother after his own brave fight, talking and processing emotions is critically important for my outlook. I fully believe openness removes fear and creates space for healing.
The key message I take from this part of my journey is that never before has living your happiest life been more important. This is also the core philosophy of my Transition Coaching business. I’m grateful for my unwavering support network, my wonderful clients, my pragmatic mindset and the opportunity to discover more about myself than I ever realised possible.
I hope you’ll be with me every step of the way.
More soon…. Adele

Hi Adele, a friend just sent me a link to your blog. I’ve had secondary breast cancer for over 5 years, in my bones. Mine is ER+. Since diagnosis I’ve been living as hard as I can within limitations and have had some amazing experiences. If there is anything I can do to help you in your work or personal life and on your journey, do feel free to get in touch.

As ‘rockets up the arse to get in touch’ go… that was a mighty big rocket. I can’t think of anyone less deserving of this than you and yet you are facing it with your usual grace and spirit. I have no doubt that the awe-inspiring laugh of course will be making the rest of us smile for a long time yet. Massive hugs and all the love in the world from me Adele. L
