About This Podcast
The Rebelling podcast is a thoughtful, emotionally honest podcast about identity, neurodivergence, and unlearning the pressure to be "normal." It has a mix of solo and interview episodes that are both curious and practical, about coping mechanisms, work, resources, relationships, and the inherited systems that shape our lives. It's the kind of podcast that makes you think differently about humanity, connection, and how we orient to reality.
