Safety First, Not Sexy? Think Again – High-Rise Survival with Adele Bayless
What do high-rises, fire safety, and your lizard brain have in common? They could all save your life—or make you Netflix-scroll through an alarm. In this rare and riveting episode, I sit down with Adele Bayless, an L.A. Fire Department-certified high-rise consultant with over 30 years of experience in fire safety and emergency planning. Adele brings the real talk, busting misconceptions and teaching you how to turn safety into your superpower, no cape required.
From the hidden dangers of ignoring smoke alarms (spoiler: smoke is the real villain) to practical tips on fire blankets, go-bags, and escape ladders, Adele lays out what everyone in a high-rise or apartment needs to know—but probably doesn’t ask. We cover questions you should be asking your landlord, drills you need to actually do, and why you should always know where the exit is (hint: lizard brain isn’t your friend in a crisis).
Plus, Adele’s no-nonsense humor makes safety anything but boring. You'll walk away motivated, a little more prepared, and ready to reclaim your peace of mind, whether you’re in a luxury penthouse or a studio walk-up.
Because safety isn’t about fear—it’s about freedom. So let’s get to it. Press play and bring sexy back to safety.
