   Self Worth: Why You Don’t Feel Good Enough (And How to Rebuild Your Power)

   Most people don’t struggle with confidence. They struggle with self worth. In this episode of Raised On Rebellion, Emma Mann shares the truth about why we don’t feel “good enough,” how trauma shapes identity, and how to rebuild your life from rock bottom without losing who you are. Emma breaks down how self worth is built through action, boundaries, and self-trust. This episode covers: • What self worth really means • Why we tolerate less than we deserve • Over-giving in relationships • Money and identity • Rebuilding after trauma • How to trust yourself again • Turning pain into power If you’ve ever questioned your value — this conversation is for you. Pain, and low self worth isn’t the end of your story. It’s the beginning of your power. ⚡️ Raised On Rebellion with Emma Mann

   How to Trust Yourself Again (After Being Let Down, Burned, or Betrayed)

   Learning to trust yourself isn’t about becoming fearless. It’s about becoming self-led. In this episode of Raised on Rebellion, Emma talks honestly about what it really takes to trust yourself again after you’ve been let down, betrayed, ignored, or forced to rely on yourself far too early in life. This isn’t mindset fluff. This is about rebuilding self-trust when your nervous system has learned that people, systems, or even your own instincts weren’t safe. Emma share's the real shifts that helped me move from survival mode into self-belief — including how I rebuilt my life from rock bottom, built No Fixed Abode of London, and connected with global rock, metal, and punk artists by trusting my own voice when no one else was backing me. In this episode, we talk about: Why self-trust isn’t confidence — it’s discernment How to tell the difference between intuition and fear Why people-pleasing destroys self-trust How trauma can make you doubt your own decisions What it really means to stop outsourcing your authority How to trust yourself without needing validation, permission, or proof Turning pain into power instead of repeating the same patterns If you’ve ever thought: “Why do I doubt myself even when I know better?” “Why do I keep second-guessing my decisions?” “How do I stop abandoning myself for others?” This episode is for you. You don’t need fixing. You need to remember that you already know. 🎙 Hosted by Emma Mann Founder of No Fixed Abode of London Creative Director | Speaker | Rebel Music. Survival. Rebellion. Resilience. Rise.

   Emma No one is coming to save you — and that’s not bad news Ep04

   No one is coming to save you — and that’s not bad news. In this raw, unfiltered solo episode of Raised on Rebellion, I talk about the moment most of us eventually face: realising that waiting for rescue, permission, confidence, money, or the “right time” keeps us stuck. This isn’t about blame. It’s about agency. I share why taking responsibility is the turning point — not manifestation, not motivation, not someone else stepping in. If no one is coming, it means you stop outsourcing your power. You decide. You move. You act — even when it’s messy, uncomfortable, or terrifying. We talk about: Why waiting keeps people trapped The myth of “someone will fix it” Choosing yourself without doing it all alone Why asking the wrong people for advice can derail you Taking action before confidence arrives Turning pain into power Building belief when your reality says otherwise This episode is for anyone who’s tired, overwhelmed, broke, grieving, rebuilding, or quietly holding it together — and needs to hear the truth without sugar-coating. If it helps you get through, then it’s done its job.

   Ace Skunk Anansie Survival, Sound & Staying Human in the Music Industry Ep01

   Ace - Skunk Anansie — Survival, Sound & Staying Human in the Music Industry Music doesn’t save you. It reveals you. And if you survive long enough, it tells the truth. In this episode of Raised on Rebellion, I sit down with Ace, guitarist of Skunk Anansie — one of the UK’s most influential, politically charged, and uncompromising bands. This isn’t a nostalgia trip. And it’s not a polished press interview. It’s a raw, honest conversation about longevity, identity, and the emotional cost of building a life in music — and surviving it without losing yourself. We talk about: What it really takes to stay in a band for decades The quiet comedown after the noise fades Identity beyond the stage Ego, burnout, and reinvention Why rebellion isn’t about shouting — it’s about endurance It’s a survival story with guitars in the background. Raised on Rebellion exists because I’m tired of surface-level success stories — the overnight myths, the sanitised narratives, the trauma repackaged without truth. This podcast is about what it actually costs to build a creative life — especially if you didn’t come from privilege, safety nets, or industry approval. Skunk Anansie never asked for permission: They were loud when silence was safer Political when neutrality was expected Unapologetic when compliance was rewarded That refusal shaped everything — including the price. Ace is known globally as the guitarist of Skunk Anansie, but what interested me wasn’t the back catalogue or accolades. It was longevity. The ability to walk away, return, evolve, and stay grounded in an industry that chews people up and rewards excess. In this episode, Ace speaks openly about: The pressure of relevance Life when the band is your identity The internal negotiations artists make just to keep going What changes when you stop proving yourself There’s no rockstar posturing here. Just honesty. One of the core themes of this conversation is the lie we’re sold about success. That once you “make it”, you’re safe, fulfilled, complete. The truth is more complex. Success doesn’t erase insecurity — it just gives it a bigger stage. Ace talks candidly about: Emotional comedowns after touring The weight of expectation How easy it is to lose yourself inside the machine This isn’t bitterness. It’s clarity. We’re living in a time where: Burnout is normalised Authenticity is marketed Rebellion is reduced to aesthetics Raised on Rebellion is about substance, not style. This conversation is a reminder that: You don’t have to destroy yourself to be meaningful You don’t have to stay angry to stay relevant You don’t have to be loud to be powerful Sometimes the most radical thing you can do is stay. Stay curious.Stay honest.Stay human. Stay Rebellious. Guest: Ace (Skunk Anansie) Host: Emma Mann Podcast: Raised on Rebellion Theme: Music. Survival. Rebellion. Resilience. Rise. THIS ISN’T A MUSIC PODCAST MEETING ACE — BEYOND THE STAGE THE MYTH OF “MAKING IT” WHY THIS EPISODE MATTERS — NOW
