Rebranding Mental Health
The Rebranding Mental Health Podcast explores what mental health could look like if we moved beyond the outdated disease model and embraced TOTAL health—brain, body, relationships, and purpose. Through real talk, cultural critique, and forward-thinking ideas, we unpack the systems that shape our well-being and imagine bold new ways to heal, connect, and grow. It’s not about fixing what’s broken—it’s about building what we’ve been missing.

“Can We Talk? Why Communication Should Be a Core Subject”
We teach reading. We teach math. We even teach driver’s ed.
But when it comes to communication—arguably one of the most essential life skills—we leave people to figure it out through trial, error, and emotional bruises.
In this episode of Rebranding Mental Health, Iman and Kurt explore how our society’s lack of formal communication education fuels conflict, burnout, disconnection, and underdeveloped leadership. This is definitely a hot topic for Iman!
You’ll learn:
- How gender, family systems, and media shape our early communication styles
- Why communication is a health behavior, not just a “soft skill”
- What a real curriculum would look like—from emotional regulation to repair after rupture
We share real-life examples, actionable takeaways, and a powerful call to shift communication from an afterthought to a foundational skill in school, work, and life.
🧠 “Imagine building IKEA furniture with no instructions—that’s how most people communicate.”
Let’s stop tossing people into the deep end of relationships without teaching them how to float. Communication isn’t optional. It’s survival.
