It's funny, because I don't mind Adele (she's very talented and seems very nice!) but I'm not one of those Gen X Adelophiles who drags her kids to Adele concerts, either.

Photo by Tanja Heffner on Unsplash Face your fears, and you’ll find inner strength that will transform your life. It’s quite common to look in a different direction when we fear something. When we’re afraid of spiders, we probably don’t go to the room full of spiders, right? But… When we change our attitude around fears, we transform our lives completely.
