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.”https://rebelling.me/transcripts#episode-1-this-is-not-about-being-normal
