    Mo Gawdat: Pain Is Okay. Just Don't Go to the Suffering

    Send us a message with any of your thoughts, questions and feedback I'm Fine hosted by Jean Campbell meets Mo Gawdat, engineer, entrepreneur, and one of the world's most prominent voices on happiness and artificial intelligence, to explore grief, love, loss, and what it really means to be okay. Mo reflects on a life of extraordinary professional success that left him clinically miserable in his twenties, the Saturday morning his five-year-old daughter held up a mirror to the person he'd become, and the years of mathematical obsession that led him to reverse-engineer happiness itself. Mo speaks with characteristic precision and unexpected tenderness about the loss of his son Ali in 2014, the teacher who spent 21 years showing his father how to accept life as it is, and whose death became the ultimate test of everything Mo had built. He draws a profound distinction between pain and suffering, reframes grief as displaced love searching for somewhere to go, and offers a vision of death, rooted not in scripture but in quantum physics and the theory of relativity. Mo Gawdat is the former Chief Business Officer of Google X, bestselling author of Solve for Happy, Scary Smart and Unstressable, and founder of the One Billion Happy movement. This is an episode about the algorithm underneath all of it and the losses that proved it true. About I’m Fine: “I’m Fine is more than a Podcast — it’s a service. A space for the millions of people navigating pain in silence, often without the resources or language we all deserve. The world isn’t set up to support people in pain and we want to help change that.” Jean Campbell. I’m Fine is a Podcast hosted by Model, Writer and Mental Health Advocate Jean Campbell is a safe space and platform where high-performance people talk honestly, often humorously, about their life experiences and healing as Jean explores the inner world behind their outward success.

    Lottie Moss on Her Experience with OnlyFans: The Truth Behind the Decision

    Send us a message with any of your thoughts, questions and feedback I’m Fine hosted by Jean Campbell meets model and entrepreneur Lottie Moss to explore what it’s like growing up in the public eye, the search for identity and validation, and finding her way back to herself. Lottie reflects on being a bubbly and confident child, her love of the spotlight and dressing-up box, the jelly shoes, and how the camera always found her, followed by the harder secondary school years which brought self-doubt, slut-shaming and the need for external validation amongst the social hierarchies of teenage girlhood. Lottie was thrown into the spotlight, aged thirteen, at her half-sister (Kate Moss) wedding and scouted as a model. Lottie discusses feeling mismanaged and controlled by her agency, the loneliness beneath the glamour, and the moment COVID gave her space to ask whether any of it was actually making her happy. She speaks candidly about how OnlyFans wasn’t rock bottom but led her to reclaiming creative control and an unexpected sense of community and reflects on the backlash, the media scrutiny that followed her and the point at which she checked herself into rehab for depression, and started to take back her power. Lottie Moss is an English model and entrepreneur, from high fashion to Only Fans, from growing up in the spotlight to modelling work, building her social platforms and hosting herpodcast Dream On This is an episode that explores what recovery, taking control and growthmean to her as she build something of her own.

    Martin Wade: Former Senior British Army Officer on PTSD and Finding Optimism through Art

    Send us a message with any of your thoughts, questions and feedback I’m Fine hosted by Jean Campbell meets Former Royal Marines lawyer Martin Wade for a profound conversation about PTSD, military service, chronic pain, survival and the unexpected role art has played in rebuilding his life. In this conversation they discuss pain, compassion, responsibility; Martin reflects on the weight of serving in Afghanistan, the life-changing impact of his PTSD diagnosis, and the long, difficult path of learning to live with both physical and psychological pain, and the courage it takes to keep going when life has fallen apart. Through painting, Martin was able to express what words couldn’t, and creates works that connect to the human condition and the possibility of healing. Martin Wade is an artist and veteran. Free from any classical training, he paints unhindered by convention and explores colour and composition on his own terms. Life's experiences brought him to the easel and his abstract works explore emotions, adversity and a survivor's instinct to recover against all the odds. The emphasis of his art is not one of gloom brought about by trauma and the hidden wounds of war but one of optimism, compassion and faith in common humanity. ​ About I’m Fine: “I’m Fine is more than a Podcast — it’s a service.

    Dr. Bessel van der Kolk: Trauma, the Body, and the Power of Community

    Send us a message with any of your thoughts, questions and feedback I’m Fine hosted by Jean Campbell meets psychiatrist and trauma pioneer Dr. Bessel van der Kolk, author of the seminal book The Body Keeps the Score. Recorded at Balliol College, Oxford, after he spoke at the Masters Event this wide-ranging conversation explores what trauma really is — beyond war and catastrophe and why connection, safety, and community are at the heart of healing. In this conversation they discuss how trauma lives in the body, how it shapes identity, and why silence and secrecy so often make suffering worse. From those suffering from dissociation, emotional numbness to chronic pain, immune illness, and loss of self, we hope this episode offers both clarity and hope as they explore what helps. Dr. Bessel van der Kolk is a psychiatrist, researcher, and educator who has spent over five decades studying trauma and its effects on the body and mind. He is the founder of the Trauma Research Foundation and the author of The Body Keeps the Score, one of the most influential books on trauma ever written. In this Conversation: What trauma actually is and why it’s not defined by the event alone, what is the difference between stress and trauma How the body ‘keeps the score’ when the mind tries to move on Why secrecy and shame deepen trauma, and the difference between public trauma and private trauma “Trauma is not what happens to you. It’s what happens inside you when you are left alone with what happened.” How trauma shapes identity — especially when it is rooted in childhood Why talk therapy alone is often not enough - the healing power of groups and shared experiences Loss of self — and why recovery is still possible and why community is the strongest antidote to hopelessness “We don’t exist as individuals. We exist as members of a tribe. What to do if you feel alone, disconnected, or “beyond help” About I’m Fine: I’m Fine is a Podcast hosted by Model, Writer and Mental Health Advocate Jean Campbell is a safe space and platform where high-performance people talk honestly about their life experiences and healing as Jean explores the inner world behind their outward success.

    Send us a message with any of your thoughts, questions and feedback I’m Fine hosted by Jean Campbell meets Edward Enninful, Co-Founder and Chief Creative Officer @ee72, and Author of his bestselling autobiography ‘A Visible Man’. In this episode they discuss visibility, vision – creative, emotive and physical and the knowledge and understanding of vulnerability. From the fullness of his life career, culture, health and using your voice and platform. Edward Enninful OBE is regarded as one of the leading voices in the creative industry working today and has helped bring widespread distinction to global fashion. Edward has a long-standing track record for delivering impactful storytelling and championing diverse and emerging talent within the industry. Born to a Ghanaian army officer and a seamstress, Edward became the youngest ever fashion editor of an international publication, i-D magazine, at 18. Quickly making his mark within the industry, by 1998 he became a contributing fixture at Italian Vogue, catapulting him into world recognition as a leading stylist and cultural contributor and spearheaded “The Black Issue” which featured only black women, and started the necessary dialogue amongst a wider public audience that continues today. Edward continued to use his voice with roles at American Vogue, W Magazine and most recently, British Vogue – becoming the only black person to serve as Editor-in-Chief in Vogue’s history and successfully transforming the publication into a diverse and inclusive multi-platform brand. Edward’s dedication to diversity in fashion was honoured with the presentation of an OBE. Unveiled in February 2025 Enninful is the co-founder and Chief Creative Officer of EE72, his global media and entertainment company. EE72 develops and produces transformational content, immersive experiences and innovative products that challenge audiences to see the world through new eyes. In this Conversation: From growing up in a traditional military family, moving from Ghana to London with his seamstress mother and siblings with two world views to being the youngest ever fashion editor at i-D Magazine. Don’t take anything for granted. From losing almost everything at a young age he vowed never to be scared again. When you escape war, when you have lost everything you appreciate everything and fear nothing. A visual person in a visual world he says “I don't fear many things in my life, but the one thing that I do experience a lot of fear with is my eyes” You can’t be an expert if you don’t do your research. All aspects of your life should inspire you – always be curious. Have dreams – and build them people who will champion you. Work hard but equally work hard to take care of yourself. How to sustain health and well-being, make time to switch off as well as on. About I’m Fine: “I’m Fine is more than a Podcast, it’s a service. A space for the millions of people navigating pain in silence, often without the resources or language we all deserve.

    Ballet legend Dame Darcey Bussell: 'the resilience you learn as a dancer, training, & the knocks'

    Send us a message with any of your thoughts, questions and feedback I’m Fine hosted by Jean Campbell meets Dame Darcey Bussell DBE – the celebrated Former Principal of The Royal Ballet and current President of the Royal Academy of Dance to discuss artistry, discipline, grace and perseverance in life – and her journey with dance. From the psychology, the all-immersive, physical and mental strength to the evolution of a dancer’s career, Darcey reflects on shift of identity, pushing through pain, retiring and reinvention as they discuss the pressures of perfection, motherhood, the importance movement, education, wellbeing and reinvention. Darcey Bussell is a former Principal Dancer of The Royal Ballet, renowned for her athletic yet lyrical style.
