We Made 13 Cents From a Pregnancy Story. Then Ranted About Shrinkflation + “Performative” Content That Gives the Ick 😬

from The Rebellious Business Show · host Cordelia Kate and Caroline Antonia

If business already feels chaotic, the last thing you need is the internet (and the world) pretending things are “fine” when they’re clearly… not.In the first Rebellious Business Show of 2026, we covered three things that every rebel entrepreneur will recognise and probably want to scream about. In a friendly way. Mostly. 😅📌 Topic #1: The “13-Cent Breakthrough” (and what content actually gets attention)Turns out a totally random story (yes, a pregnancy + driving test moment) brought in the biggest bar tab spike we’ve seen. We’re unpacking what that means for content, visibility, and why “polished” isn’t always what performs. 💸📌 Topic #2: Shrinkflation = size gaslightingChocolate bars getting smaller. Crisps shrinking. Prices going up anyway. We’re calling out the sneaky “make it smaller and hope no one notices” nonsense because rebels do notice. 🍫😤📌 Topic #3: When “kindness content” feels… ickyWe talked about the line between sharing real life vs. filming intimate moments (or staged good deeds) for clicks and why it can feel less like care and more like performance. 🎥🚫✨ Got a Question? A Dilemma? A Hot Take?We love featuring rebel stories, questions, and spicy statements on the show. Drop yours here:👉 https://rebelliousbusiness.com/spill-it(Anonymous? Ridiculous name?
