Description

We the Unruly is a podcast for people who are done negotiating with themselves to fit in. Hosted by Jen Vertanen, this show is for cycle-breakers, edge-walkers, and leaders who refuse to abandon who they are in order to belong. Each episode lives in the space most people avoid—the moment when success stops working, self-editing gets expensive, and self-trust becomes non-negotiable. No self-help fluff. No performative healing. No “fix yourself” energy. Just honest conversations about identity, discernment, capacity, and what it actually takes to live, lead, and decide without betraying yourself. If you’ve ever felt like you didn’t lose yourself — you adapted — this is for you. Belonging isn’t earned here and self-trust is the new power move. Pull up a chair. You’re in good company here.
