About us
Why we exist
We've built the personal growth community we were looking for
Dan Russell
Co-Founder
The quietest place in every town is the library. There’s a lot of learning, and no one is putting the knowledge to use.
Most personal growth programs out there are like libraries. They give you knowledge to improve your life, but the key ingredient to making real, lasting change is missing: human connection.
The Brilliant Rebellion takes your personal growth outside the library, beyond the courses and tools. It lets you join your fellow free-thinkers, troublemakers, and conscious renegades in a first-of-its-kind community designed to guide you toward your best self among friends.

We don't have all the answers, but we do know how to help you find them.
Dan Russell
Co-Founder
The Brilliant Rebellion is led by people just like you—people who are living and breathing through this human experience.
People who have dedicated themselves to seeking alignment in every area of their lives. Who seek enlightenment for the sake of itself, and not for attention. They are learning, just like you, what it means to be human.
Every day, they immerse themselves more deeply into different ways of thinking and living so they can share those ways with you on our Soul Mixer calls. We call them Rebel Guides—fellow members who have raised their hands to share their wisdom, regardless of their background or age. You’ll get to know them quickly upon joining!
Are you a Brilliant Rebel?
The Brilliant Rebellion is a movement supporting humans in unbecoming everything they were told they should be. Allowing them to step into who they were born to be. Giving them the tools and support in remembering and finding their gifts.
Melanie Spring
Co-Founder
A Brilliant Rebel is a human who decided that society wasn’t right about them.
That everything the world told them they SHOULD be is the opposite of what they want for themselves. That all of the intelligence and education they packed into their brain is nothing without the magic of who they are innately.
Brilliant Rebels do things their own way. They run their lives and careers from their imagination and intuition. They step into unknown territory knowing that they were MADE FOR MORE.They approach the Door of Possibility and leave all their baggage (stories, beliefs, and truths) behind so they can find the truth of who they are and what they’re here to do.
The Brilliant Rebellion was born out of a desire to support more humans in unbecoming what isn’t them and finding a community of people who stand out, grow powerfully, and shine a light on the path they walked so others can come with them.
Rebellion is not for everyone, but if it is for you, we see you. We know you. We are you.

What Drives Us
Every human being is entitled to the pursuit of their highest self. Enlightenment is your birthright—we're here to help you claim it.
No matter your age, race, gender, or nationality, if you’re a member of the human race, you have the right to attain higher levels of consciousness.
Until now, society hasn’t had a community where we can learn how to become better versions of ourselves without needing to subscribe to an ancient story, specific doctrine, or dated societal principles.
The Brilliant Rebellion is the first community to ask you to think for yourself while also challenging all of your stories, beliefs, and truths. We welcome disagreement, challenging questions, and all levels of curiosity. This community makes it possible for you to decide for yourself who you are and what you believe while knowing you’re in a safe space to express yourself.

We're modernizing the path of personal growth, and we're leaving no stone unturned.
Humans have never had as much access to transformational knowledge and tools as we do at this time in history. The biggest problem is not access, but knowing what to believe or who to listen to.
For those of us who grew up in church being told how to think, what rules to follow, and what deity to believe in, The Brilliant Rebellion is here to help you find what you believe for yourself.For those who grew up with no faith-system, The Brilliant Rebellion provides a safe space to express yourself and ask the questions that have been burning inside you.
We’re not following a doctrine, a guru or prophet, or even a set of guidelines. We’re giving you access to everything you need to think for yourself while connecting with others doing the same. And it all happens within a supportive community built around our shared quest for bettering our lives.
