In this powerful episode of Life Again, Chad sits down with Adele Wiejaczka—an adventurer, creative entrepreneur, and storyteller who has built a life (and a business) that defies the norm and embraces the unknown.

Adele’s journey began with a childhood dream of becoming a professional dog musher in Alaska—and she made it happen. But rather than settling into that success, she kept evolving, kept expanding. Today, she lives and works from a self-built truck camper while running her thriving creative business, Live Large Design.

But it hasn’t all been mountaintop moments.

Just last year, Adele lost thousands of dollars in a scam while trying to upgrade her camper and found herself without a home. Instead of crumbling, she rebuilt—literally and figuratively. She designed and constructed her own mobile home, reclaimed her autonomy, and reshaped her business to reflect a deeper, more aligned version of herself.

Now, through her new platform West of Normal, Adele shares her ongoing journey of recovery, resilience, and thriving—on her own terms.

In this episode, you’ll hear:

• How following a wild dream can lead to something even better
• What to do when the life you built falls apart
• How hardship can reawaken your inner power
• The power of simplicity, mobility, and designing a life that truly fits
• Why sometimes the detour is the real dream

Adele’s story is a reminder that rock bottom can be a building site—and that reinvention is always possible, especially when you choose the road less paved.
