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.
