That's pretty funny. I have to admit, though: "adversity" is an odd term to use when they meant challenges specifically related to your past jobs. Ask about how a candidate dealt with conflict, or dealt with being asked to meet an unreasonable timeline, sure: but adversity? Especially for a company that worked on social equity issues, conflating life adversity with sundry issues faced in a corporate job seems odd. Your answer seems pretty appropriate!
