Highlights:

“Often, our superpowers are our blind spots. It’s the things we take for granted, and think everyone can do, so we don’t give them value. They’re hard to spot unless you put intention on finding them.” - 5:15 - Adele Leah

“I think having a bad time at work starts as a crisis, and then if you ride through it, it can become an opportunity. They say that the breakthrough is on the other side of a breakdown, but you have to get through the breakdown first!” - 10:05 - Adele Leah

“When we're energised, and we're doing the role that's right for us, with the people that are right for us, in the place that's right for us, we can't not shine.” - 17:00 - Adele Leah

“If you want to leverage a superpower, ask a close colleague what you’re great at, so you have that external view.” - 24:30 - Adele Leah
