About this listen

The Rebranding Mental Health Podcast explores what mental health could look like if we moved beyond the outdated disease model and embraced TOTAL health—brain, body, relationships, and purpose. Through real talk, cultural critique, and forward-thinking ideas, we unpack the systems that shape our well-being and imagine bold new ways to heal, connect, and grow. It’s not about fixing what’s broken—it’s about building what we’ve been missing.

    • Why AI isn’t equipped to fully replace human connection and professional care
    • The surprising ways AI mirrors your mindset—and why that can be both comforting and limiting
    • Ethical concerns around privacy and sharing sensitive information
    • AI Energy consumption and biases
    • Tips to use AI wisely while staying grounded in self-awareness and real-life relationships

  • “Can We Talk? Why Communication Should Be a Core Subject”
    Jun 24 2025

    We teach reading. We teach math. We even teach driver’s ed.
    But when it comes to communication—arguably one of the most essential life skills—we leave people to figure it out through trial, error, and emotional bruises.

    In this episode of Rebranding Mental Health, Iman and Kurt explore how our society’s lack of formal communication education fuels conflict, burnout, disconnection, and underdeveloped leadership. This is definitely a hot topic for Iman!

    You’ll learn:

    • How gender, family systems, and media shape our early communication styles
    • Why communication is a health behavior, not just a “soft skill”
    • What a real curriculum would look like—from emotional regulation to repair after rupture

    We share real-life examples, actionable takeaways, and a powerful call to shift communication from an afterthought to a foundational skill in school, work, and life.

    🧠 “Imagine building IKEA furniture with no instructions—that’s how most people communicate.”

    Let’s stop tossing people into the deep end of relationships without teaching them how to float. Communication isn’t optional. It’s survival.

  • Wellness Industry Green Flags (Good Vibes with Substance)
    Jun 17 2025

    Tired of toxic positivity and one-size-fits-all wellness advice?

    In this refreshingly honest episode of Rebranding Mental Health, Iman and Kurt flip the script—focusing not on what’s wrong with the wellness industry, but what’s right.

    This episode is for anyone who’s ever felt overwhelmed by health influencers, underwhelmed by overpromises, or just unsure who to trust in the crowded space of mental and emotional wellness.

    We’re calling out the green flags—the signs that a content creator, coach, or mental health guide is worth your time and attention.

    💡 You’ll learn how to spot:

    • Thoughtful, intention-driven creators who nerd out about their content
    • Professionals who don’t pretend to have all the answers
    • Creators who embrace nuance, transparency, and real-life complexity
    • Voices that resonate with your values — not just your algorithm

    And yes, we may lovingly roast a few red flags along the way 😉

    This one’s for the discerning scroll—you deserve inspiration that uplifts, not manipulation that sells.

    Tune in for perspective, reflection, and a healthier relationship with online wellness.
