Testimonials - Adele Fedorak

Here’s what people are saying about Adele

I first met Adele a couple of years ago at a book writing course and was immediately drawn to her insightful approach to storytelling.

Since then, I have participated in Adele’s Oral Storytelling Workshops (now call StoryPods) and have grown immensely in my ability to tell an impactful story. These skills have helped me in my business and personal life. Adele inspired me — the shy, quiet woman to ‘grab the mic’. She made me realize my stories were important to share and that they had a universal appeal to a wide audience – both within my work and my family.

I continue to work with Adele and benefit from her ability to see stories at the 30,000-foot level. It’s not necessarily about punctuation and spelling — it’s about telling compelling stories that resonate with audiences in a truly memorable way. Adele’s creative, intelligent approach to storytelling has given me a new-found confidence in myself that I carry forward in aspects of my life. In fact, she inspired me to coin the phrase “Bad-ass Ballerini” – quietly fierce — with important stories to tell.

I had worked with clients on speeches and presentations for years, and I knew how much more powerful and effective their message was when it had a story. But how we found those stories was always just hit and miss.

But now, after working with Adele in her storytelling group, I know how to find stories. I know how to structure them, and I know how to deliver them. What I didn’t know was how great a gift this skill was going to be to my clients, my family, my friends and myself. The stories we tell have a profound effect on how we are seen and how we choose to see the world.

With her naturally encouraging way and her years of experience, Adele masterfully guided me through this discovery.

I participated in Adele’s Storytelling Pods for a full year and absolutely loved it. It transformed how I think of what she calls “story moments.” Seeing and capturing those story moments helped me personally and professionally work through and tell those all too important stories. If you’re looking to deepen connection with your business audience, or even just your connection with your own life experience, I highly recommend participating in The StoryEdge StoryPods!

Being a narrative coach myself, I value the power of stories for human development. Adele knows stories inside out and upside down! For Adele, it is almost as if stories were something you can touch and mold! She’s the best person if you want to learn about stories and the power they have in your life. After working with Adele something gets resolved, something comes alive, something moves you forward. It is a life-changing experience!

Adele knows how to pull your story out of you in a gentle yet powerful way. For those of us who do not consider ourselves “storytellers” but need to communicate to small or large audiences, her support is invaluable. She has a uniquely intuitive sense combined with a highly developed technical skillset. Whether you are working to become a better “storyteller” to engage and inspire your workforce, tell your story more effectively to potential hiring managers, or to friends and colleagues who may be willing to support a lifestyle or career change you are trying to make but aren’t clear on what you want or need––Adele can be that perfect guide for you to communicate what matters most to you!

Let me take this opportunity to acknowledge the depth of knowledge that Adele has as a professional coach. Through a dynamic coaching relationship that she establishes early, she has a remarkable ability to lead others into revealing their acute interests and passions through storytelling. Adele does this work with both compassion and intellect that allows for each individual client to be cradled through their own personal growth and development. Adele demonstrates this same level of mastery whether working with individuals or with small intimate groups.I wholeheartedly endorse Ms. Adele Fedorak and would encourage professionals, stay-at-home moms, or teams to avail themselves of the benefits of coaching and storytelling with this superb coach.

Adele is a gifted empath that feels and brings important moments out of a narrative. She has a way of listening to what is not being heard and channel the areas that are missing and essential to a story. She helped me articulate and integrate all the areas needed for either my audience or client cohesively. Her work is important now and forever as people evolve narratives change. A story isn’t a story unless it has the most valuable parts that would include Adele helps you put it all together like a gift under a tree.
