Confessions Of An Unapologetic RebelAuthor: Emma Gibbs-Ng
CONFESSIONS OF AN UNAPOLOGETIC REBEL The world teaches people how to rise. This show explores how they remain themselves while they do. Hosted by Emma Gibbs-Ng, Confessions of an Unapologetic Rebel is a show about the human behind success, visibility, performance, pressure and reinvention. Each week, Emma sits down with athletes, founders, performers, experts and public figures to uncover the stories most people never hear, the moments behind the headlines, the pressure behind the performance, and the identity shifts that happen as life asks more of us. Alongside bold interviews, Emma shares solo Rebel Riffs, cultural breakdowns and unfiltered conversations exploring the deeper questions shaping modern life: How do you stay connected to yourself while the world is measuring you? Can you become more without abandoning who you are? What happens when success, visibility and pressure start changing the way you see yourself? Who are you when the scoreboard goes quiet? This isn't a show about perfect people. It's a show about staying human in a world obsessed with measurement. Because the real challenge isn't becoming successful. It's remaining yourself while you do. New episodes every week. Language: en Genres: Business, Education, Self-Improvement Contact email: Get it Feed URL: Get it iTunes ID: Get it |

EP215 She Hadn't Felt Like Herself for Eight Years. Then Something Changed. | Emma Fullwood
Tuesday, 3 November, 2026
What happens when you spend so long trying to get people to understand who you are that somewhere along the way, you stop feeling like yourself? In this episode of Confessions of an Unapologetic Rebel, I'm joined by the fabulous Emma Fullwood for a candid, funny and sometimes emotional conversation about being misunderstood, feeling the pressure to fit in, and finding your way back to yourself. Emma's work explores women's bodies, intimacy, sexuality, trauma and the conversations that so many of us have been taught to avoid. And because of that, she's no stranger to raising eyebrows, challenging expectations and having people make assumptions about who she is. But behind the woman people sometimes find intimidating is someone who describes herself as gentle, loving, slightly chaotic and, perhaps surprisingly, uncomfortable in front of cameras. After recently spending three hours in my Hot Seat, Emma joined me live to share what the experience was really like. And what started as a conversation about being interviewed turned into something much bigger. Including the admission that she hadn't truly felt like herself since 2018. Eight bloody years. We get into: What it's like when people continually misunderstand you and your work. The difference between how people perceive you and who you actually are. Why Emma walked away from a speaking opportunity rather than change her message. The exhaustion of trying to squeeze your personality and expertise into social media content. What happened when Emma finally forgot the cameras were there and stopped trying to give the 'right' answers. Why looking confident on the outside doesn't necessarily mean you feel confident on the inside. The documentary Emma wants to create to change conversations around women's bodies, intimacy and education. And what it feels like to start recognising yourself again after years of feeling disconnected. There's plenty of laughter, a few swear words and some wonderfully candid moments along the way. Whether you know Emma's work or you're meeting her for the first time, this is an opportunity to get to know the woman behind the public perception. And perhaps ask yourself a question along the way: When was the last time you felt completely like yourself? Enjoy the conversation.
