If your brain feels like staying inside the box is a bit too snug, and coloring inside the lines is just a little too dull... you’re in the right place. Around here, we know that brilliant minds rarely play by the rules. We like to see what happens when you throw away the manual and just run wild being human. Misbehaving Minds is a long-form video podcast dedicated to celebrating self-love, resilience, and human connection through unrestrained, innovative thought. We’re ditching the default settings, embracing our inner divergent, and pulling up a chair with people who have turned their unconventional perspectives into their ultimate superpower. Buckle Up and Take the Leap: Think of this as your weekly invite to take chances, make brilliant mistakes, and get delightfully messy. Life doesn't move in a straight line, and neither do the best ideas. Whether you are navigating your own unexpected detours or unlearning the urge to fit into society's rigid molds, Misbehaving Minds is your sanctuary for unfiltered stories, candid humor, and deep human insight. Hosted by: Elliott Robert, a holistic speech-language pathologist, artist, and late-diagnosed neurodivergent thinker (ADHD & Dyslexia), the show explores how our brains work when we stop trying to fix them and start learning to understand them. Drawing from multimodal mindfulness and real-world experience, Elliott creates an open, cozy space for guests to drop their guard and share the raw truth of their journeys. Our 60-minute casual interview sessions feature conversations with thinkers, healers, creators, and advocates who embrace the beauty of non-linear living. Subscribe, hit the notification bell, pull up a chair, and let’s misbehave! Watch & Listen: Full HD studio episodes on YouTube, Spotify, Amazon Music, and Apple Podcasts.
