Tia Rey is a Scottish comedian and musician who uses storytelling to explore identity, self-expression, and what it means to be seen.

In this episode, we talk about how comedy entered Tia’s life, what humour has given her, and what it can quietly hide. We explore the difference between being visible and being understood, the pressure to explain yourself, and how finding your voice often happens in real time rather than all at once.

We also discuss creating spaces that didn’t exist before, navigating growth without certainty, and what success looks like when you’re still figuring things out.
