ENROLMENT CURERENTLY CLOSED
The doors are currently closed for this round of the program, however, you can join our waitlist below to be the first to hear when they re-open:
Sound like you?
-
“How have I been an actor for this many years and still feel like I’m just watching everyone else move forward?”
-
“Why is it so easy for other people to get reps, auditions and momentum when I can't even get a reply to my emails?”
-
“Am I actually an actor anymore, or am I just someone who spends all their time at CD workshops hoping to be noticed?”
-
“How much longer can I feel like I am made for my next level but have no idea how to actually get there, before I QUIT?”
-
“If I disappeared from the industry tomorrow, would anyone even notice – or would it just carry on exactly the same?”
-
“Does everyone like an annoyance to their agent instead of a partner in the business of their career, or is it just me?”
-
“Is there something fundamentally wrong with me that means I’m always the almost‑there, nearly‑picked, close‑but‑not‑quite girl?”
-
“What if this is it – what if I never actually become the woman and the actor I thought I’d grow into?”
...because the truth is
"It's supposed to be this hard"
IS THE LIE
If you’re anything like the actors I work with, you’ve been carrying some heavy thoughts around lately:
“If I were talented enough, I’d be further along already.”
“Maybe I’m just not cut out for this industry.”
“Everyone else is making it work… why can’t I?”
So you double down. More classes, more emails, more Spotlight tweaks... You tell yourself you “just need to do more,” all the while believing deep down that you aren't really enough to have more...
But to be clear: this is not your fault.
We were taught that an acting career is meant to feel like constant struggle, random luck, and waiting in the wings hoping someone picks you 🤞🏽 If you’re not exhausted and suffering, you convince yourself you're just “not serious enough.”
Here’s what I need you to hear instead:
You are not wrong for wanting more in your career (and life!)
What’s wrong is the story you're telling yourself that it has to be this hard, you have to wait to “get lucky”, you have to dim yourself to be liked, or sacrifice to prove or earn anything.
Leading Lady Material exists to give you a different script, one where you:
-
✨ own that you are made for more,
-
✨ step into leadership and out of victimhood,
-
✨ have a system and team that accelerate your success.
❌ This does not mean that the industry will suddenly become easy, or you can bypass doing the work.
✅ It does mean:
-
You'll create your career with ease, opportunity and abundance
-
You'll operate from confidence, self‑preservation and flow
-
You'll trust that niggling knowing that you are capable of holding the success you want.
NOW THE CHOICE IS YOURS:
You can pay in time, trying to figure this out how to do this alone for another 5–10 years, digging your heels in and resenting what could've, or should've been...
or...
You can let yourself be supported to move faster and with a system that awakens your innate power - so you can have the life you know you're meant for NOW.
SAY GOODBYE TO
THE OLD WAY:
Endless workshops and classes that don’t teach you how to survive, let alone book
Cringe-worthy networking that people ignore
Taking any acting opportunity just to scratch the itch and feel more like an actor
Trying to be what you think “the industry” wants you to be
Hustling 24/7 with little results to show for it
Waiting for opportunities to miraculously come to you

HERE'S HOW YOU'RE GOING TO DO IT

Before we touch your strategy, we have to upgrade the woman running it – this is the identity shift from “background artist” to Leading Lady.
This is what it actually means to be the lead of your career and life:
-
The Leading Lady is defined not by what she does, but by who and how she is - she has unshakeable self-worth.
-
She is not a diva, not entitled, not selfish or rigid; her power comes from grounded self‑knowing.
-
She is not apologetic, not small, and not self‑sacrificial; she refuses to shrink to keep other people comfortable.
-
She knows who she is, what she brings, and what she wants – and she lets that knowing guide her every move.
-
She exudes that knowing in her presence and how she speaks, listens, says "yes" and "no".
-
She makes decisions that align with her future self, rather than her past fears.
-
She is abundant in her mindset and her behaviour – generous, open and trusting.
-
She co‑creates her world: her team, jobs, career and life are built in partnership with her own intuition.
-
She is the main character of her own story – she leads her life on purpose.
Adele will personally guide you in exactly what to do, to step into this evolution of yourself, combined with:
OUR TRIED + TESTED METHOD
You will also be trained fully in the two core The Booked Club systems - Adele's signature strategy for building a long-term career without burnout:
01 | CREATIVE SAFETY
So you are thriving creatively, performing at your best, and enjoying a life that houses a successful career, not the other way around.
The core components are:
Mastering limiting beliefs & fears
Elevated well-being habits & routines
Strong external support system
Owning your time
Financial security on your terms
02 | HOLISTIC CEO STRATEGY
Leading your career and life, as the most effective, efficient and equipped version of yourself - because that's what both deserve!
The core components are:
Value-driven career vision & mission
Life-wide strategy & action
Winning team & network
Authentic personal brand
Consistent execution of expert acting technique
These systems are fundamental because you are currently building your acting career on a "strategy" that is out-dated, fragmented, and ignores the reality of what you need to survive (let alone thrive!) in the modern entertainment industry. That is... if you are actually using any strategy at all...
Think of the complete program experience as:
LLM Coaching = your identity, energy and leadership upgrade.
TBC Systems = your technical blueprint and tools for execution.

LEARN FROM
I'm Adele, and I am rooting for you babe -
Today, you meet me as an award‑winning actress, best known for playing Cleopatra in Jada Pinkett‑Smith’s Queen Cleopatra on Netflix, leading roles at the National Theatre and in the West End.
But if I take you back to 2015...
I had just finished my Drama Degree from the University of Bristol and was diving headfirst into the industry as a Black-biracial, working-class Londoner, raised by a single mum (my hero!), who had zero contacts in the industry and never went to Drama School.
It feels quite miraculous to be where I am today, though my journey has not been short of challenges: 😬 financial hardship 🥲 two 10-month work gaps in 3 years 😟 more rejections than I can count 😖 getting dropped by my agent of 5 years 😰 burning out a few times... The truth is, I struggled and hustled way more than was necessary. Why? Well, quite simply - I was overcompensating. Big time. I believed that because I hadn't gone to drama school like my peers did, that I was always 5 steps behind everyone else. So I worked 10x harder than everyone else. But, of course, I was playing a losing game because attacking my career like that impacted my mental health, my physical health, my sense of self-worth and my relationships with others too. Not to mention that any success I did have as an actor was hard to fulfil to my best ability and harder to receive meaningfully. That's when I started looking for another way to build my career... There had to be another way... ...or else I'd have to quit.
REAL EXPERIENCE
ENTER YOU...
I vowed that when I figured out how to succeed as an actor myself, both internally and externally, I would share it so that others could find their way with more ease.
In 2021 I began coaching using what I had learned - that navigating your career effectively long-term adheres to three core principles:
1. Without your health and well-being in tact, you can't have true success
2. Without autonomy and a clear voice, you can't have true success
3. Without a life you love to house your career, you can't have true succes
These principles will be your North Star on the journey to your dream life.
Leading Lady Material is your roadmap to achieving it.
