We made “looking our age” the enemy, then sold the cure.

In this episode of Rebranding Mental Health, Iman and Kurt are talking about what it really means to age in a youth-obsessed culture. Because aging isn’t a flaw in the system, it’s the proof that the system is working.

We unpack:
• Why “you look great for your age” is the compliment no one asked for
• How fear of aging fuels anxiety, shame, and billion-dollar industries
• What cultures that honor aging can teach us about joy, health, and purpose

You’ll also get practical ways to re-script your relationship with time, through language, purpose, and intergenerational connection.

Because your years aren’t rust, they’re resonance.

"Rebranding Mental Health: A Movement, Not a Label."

In this episode of Rebranding Mental Health, Iman and Kurt move from integration to arrival, the moment when your nervous system stops scanning for danger and starts trusting safety again.

Kurt shares his reflections on grief, healing, and the quest beneath modern life: the need to feel safe, intact, and “enough.” We explore what it means to stop living in survival mode, how nourishment, physical, emotional, relational, restores our sense of arrival, and why rest is not the opposite of productivity but a measure of health.

Because you can’t rush wholeness. You have to feed it.

"Rebranding Mental Health: A Movement, Not a Label."

What if the parts of yourself you’ve been avoiding are actually the key to your peace?

This week on Rebranding Mental Health, Iman and Kurt are crawling into the metaphorical basement of the psyche (don’t worry, bring snacks). We’re talking about shadow work, what it is, what it’s not, and how to stop treating self-awareness like an exorcism.

Carl Jung called the shadow the “unconscious part of ourselves that the ego refuses to see.”
But here’s the twist: your shadow isn’t just the dark stuff, it’s also your hidden brilliance, confidence, creativity, and “too much-ness” you were told to tone down.

We’ll break down how the shadow gets formed, why triggers are actually treasure maps, and how integration, not annihilation, is the real goal.
Because wholeness isn’t about fixing yourself, it’s about befriending your inner chaos until it stops haunting you. So, appropriate for this Halloween Week! 👻
