In this vibrant episode of Therapuss with Jake Shane, host Jake welcomes pop superstar Adéla for an intimate and emotionally charged conversation. The episode begins with Jake reflecting on the highs and lows of his recent Coachella trip, sharing candid moments of manic energy, exhaustion, and profound connection with friends. He then transitions into a heartfelt interview with Adéla, who opens up about her journey from Slovakia to global stardom, fueled by her deep parasocial relationships with pop icons like Miley Cyrus, Ariana Grande, and Beyoncé. Adéla reveals how watching Hannah Montana sparked her English language acquisition and inspired her career path, and she shares raw vulnerability about her creative process, mental health, and the pressure of being a public figure. She discusses her upcoming album, her complex relationship with social media, and her commitment to authenticity over audience approval. The episode culminates in a playful 'Tell Me What's Wrong' segment, where Jake and Adéla deliver sharp, humorous, and surprisingly insightful advice on relationship red flags, online harassment, and personal boundaries. Throughout, themes of self-worth, artistic integrity, and emotional resilience shine through.
Your dreams are valid—never apologize for wanting them.

Celebrate your journey, not just the destination—your story matters.
