About this listen

Rise + Rebel Radio is a podcast for people who are becoming. Hosted by Aya Hoja, this space explores what it means to rise with elegance & rebel with purpose.

Through intimate reflections & lived experience, Aya speaks to the quiet seasons of becoming, the fire that follows silence, & the courage it takes to stop asking for permission.

This is not a podcast about perfection. It’s a place for honesty, presence, & depth. This is for people who feel deeply, live thoughtfully, & know there is more forming beneath the surface.

Rise when the world is is quiet. Rebel when your soul is loud.

  • Getting Lost Was Never the Problem
    Feb 15 2026

    What if resistance isn’t a warning… but a doorway?

    In this season-closing episode of Rise and Rebel, Aya reflects on the daily practices that quietly shape a sovereign life, meditation, presence, and the choice to meet discomfort instead of avoiding it.

    This episode explores the tug-of-war between ego and truth, the power of becoming a silent observer of your own mind, and the magic that lives on the other side of resistance.

    A closing invitation to stop negotiating with your becoming, and to recognize that getting lost may be the most intelligent season of all.

  • The Woman Who No Longer Asks
    Feb 8 2026

    Some of the most powerful ways we ask for permission … are silent…

    In this episode of Rise and Rebel, Aya explores the subtle ways we give our power away... through silence, over-accommodation, softened boundaries, and the fear of disappointing others.

    From cultural conditioning to business and relationships, this conversation traces the path from quiet self-abandonment to self-authority, and what it truly costs, and returns, when a woman chooses herself. This episode is not about becoming fearless. It’s about becoming sovereign.
