Rebelling
Rebelling is a podcast for neurodivergent adults who know it's not about being normal, it's about being human. In each episode, we'll explore how to live in more neurodivergent affirming ways, start to see ourselves in the world around us, and feel like we make sense. This is our place to talk, research, imagine, and create a world that includes us.

This is Not About Being Normal
In this first episode of Rebelling, host Amy Knott Parrish shares her journey from lifelong outsider to late-diagnosed ADHD and autistic adult. Through stories of identity, music, masking, and self-discovery, she explores what it means to rebel against “normal” and build a life that honors neurodivergent needs. This is a podcast for anyone craving belonging without pretending.
In this episode, I’m getting real about what brought me here — from growing up feeling like an outsider, to trying on different identities just to fit in, to finally discovering my neurodivergence in my 40s. I talk about the power of self-understanding, the music that helped me feel seen for the first time, and what it means to rebel against the expectations of “normal.”
