Asian Rebel Club Podcast
A podcast every Asian should’ve had growing up, and probably still needs.
A podcast for Asian/Asian diaspora untangling family expectations, cultural guilt, and the myth of perfection.
Hosted by Crystal Ren, who brings her own messy, magical story to the mic, so you don’t have to figure it out alone. This podcast is a mix of honest conversations, cultural unlearning, emotional plot twists, and slow rebellion. Each episode helps you break free from cultural pressures so you can finally make decisions that feel right for you.
If you’ve ever felt torn between your own dreams and your family’s expectations, you’ll hear real stories, practical mindset shifts, and tools to navigate cultural guilt without losing connection to your roots. These conversations will give you the tools and courage to start living on your own terms, starting today.
New episodes bi-weekly-ish.

Episode 13: Jeff Jimenez: "I got stage 4 cancer & started a business - Here’s why"
Use Left/Right to seek, Home/End to jump to start or end. Hold shift to jump forward or backward.
Jeff Jimenez was grinding in corporate finance when a stage 4 lung cancer diagnosis flipped his life upside down. Instead of slowing down, he launched Love Jane, a fashion brand worn by Miss Universe and featured on Netflix, while undergoing chemo.
In this raw conversation, he shares:
- Why he built a business instead of "just traveling" after his diagnosis
- How cancer erased his ego but sharpened his ambition
- The unfiltered truth about success: "You won’t regret missing a deal on your deathbed. You’ll regret missing moments."
- Why celebrities in the Philippines loved his brand (and what it taught him about authenticity)
A story of resilience, ruthless priorities, and rebuilding your life when everything falls apart.
