The Rare Rebels™ Podcast shares raw, unscripted conversations with patients, caregivers, advocates, and researchers who are changing the future of rare disease. These aren’t polished soundbites — they’re real voices from the front lines, revealing the humanity, heartbreak, and hope woven into the rare disease experience.

Because change doesn’t happen through statistics alone — it happens through connection.

Hosted by award-winning storyteller and advocate Melody Joy Paine, Rare Rebels™ brings lived experiences to the forefront, bridging gaps between families, researchers, nonprofits, and industry stakeholders. Through these deeply personal stories, we build understanding, inspire action, and drive meaningful change.

Formerly known as the Images of Joy Podcast, Rare Rebels™ is a relaunch and expansion that retains archived episodes while introducing a new lens: one focused on amplifying the rebels in rare disease who refuse to wait for systems to change and are doing something about it.
