Initially, Adelle discovered that the necessary equipment for podcasting was easily accessible.

"The more I read about it (podcast) the more accessible it was even in terms of equipment and so I thought why not?" Adelle explained.

She continued that she also realised that hosting a podcast would provide her with an opportunity to share her experiences following her departure from a high-profile job.

Adelle emphasised that when she initially started her podcast, she didn't fixate on potential failures or successes.
