Summary

️ What if the world saw narcolepsy for what it truly is?

Meet Tre Burge, an educator, designer, and fierce narcolepsy advocate, as he takes us through his journey of living with Narcolepsy Type 1. Diagnosed at 18, Tre quickly realized the lack of awareness, representation, and resources surrounding sleep disorders—especially in Black and Brown communities.

In this episode, Tre shares how he turned his experience into a mission: from launching Wake Up Entertainment, a creative hub for sleep disorder advocacy, to using social media, fashion, and media storytelling to reshape public perceptions. His passion for authentic representation in film, TV, and online spaces is breaking barriers and sparking conversations worldwide.

Join us for a raw, powerful conversation about creativity, resilience, and the urgent need for accurate narcolepsy awareness.
