164. Glass Ceilings and Sticky Floors with Erica Anderson Rooney 43:27

3d ago43:27

43:27

In a world where women are told to have it all, do it all, and be it all, the reality they face while actually trying to do these things is far more complex. The pay gap looms large – over the span of a career, it takes 132 years to close – while the confidence gap, the leadership gap, and the broken rung in the corporate ladder persist. Erica Ande…

163. The Silver Lyming of Falling Ill with Anne Desjardins 48:57

10d ago48:57

48:57

Imagine you’re less than 30 years old, and so tired you’re afraid to drive because you might fall asleep at the wheel and cause an accident. Picture the frustration of seeing doctor after doctor after doctor, only to be told you’re not sick, just depressed. Then, after getting so many wrong answers, you conclude you have a brain tumor, because that…

162. Understanding Fears and Their Roots with Constantin Morun 45:38

17d ago45:38

45:38

Fear often holds you back, even if it doesn’t make sense to be afraid. You can have everything you ever wanted – a fantastic career, creature comforts, money to afford anything you need, plus “f*ck-you money” in the bank that gives you the freedom to not have to do anything you don’t want to. And even with all that, you can still have an empty, nag…

161. This Won’t Last Forever with Helen Fanucci 43:49

24d ago43:49

43:49

You know the saying: your network is your net worth. You can intentionally engineer the results by curating your circle of influence over time, keeping in touch, and being on the alert for subtle connections the casual observer might miss. And then you might unintentionally end up on a flight with the CEO of your former employer, take your chance o…

160. Do Hard Things with Gabe Lullo 42:37

1M ago42:37

42:37

When you work in sales, you of course want to build trust with your prospects and make them feel like you have their best interests at heart and aren’t simply selling them something just to earn a commission. Resilience, adaptability, and continuous learning are as important to your success as empathy, patience, and effective communication. Then th…

159. I’m Not Going to Tolerate This with Jennifer Frye 45:02

1M ago45:02

45:02

It’s called “continuous growth” for a reason. When you cut down a tree, or a tree snaps and falls, the rings you’ll see reveal more than the age of the tree based on how many rings there are. Each ring will be a different width, a different color or shade. Each of these rings tells a story about how changes in the environment impacted its growth an…

Do you think you’ve got it made? Today’s situation is remarkable for the sheer amount of disruption, rapid change, and even chaos that seems to spin faster and faster with each passing moment. Just in the past few years, the world has been turned upside down, stood back up, spun around, and sent into the rapids by a pandemic that has become endemic…

156. The More You Say No, The More You Grow with Michelle Charpentier 44:12

2M ago44:12

44:12

Self-reliance. Determination and grit. Treating others the way you want to be treated. These are some of the most noble traits our society says we can possibly have, attributing people who exude them as being the product of a good upbringing and the kind of person we should aspire to be. These are also the traits than can bite you in the ass and f*…

155. Pain To Purpose: The Power of Drumming with Dori Staehle 47:38

2M ago47:38

47:38

Imagine going about your day, following your routine, when out of the blue something comes along and knocks you to the ground, ending the life you’ve known up until that moment. In the movies, things can go into slow motion, or you hear the “needle scratch” that ends the background music as everything comes to a shuttering halt and you fall to the …

154. Living and Thriving on the Autism Spectrum with Daniel Keith Austin 35:10

2M ago35:10

35:10

What do Anthony Hopkins, Dan Aykroyd, Courtney Love, Daryl Hannah, Jerry Seinfeld, Albert Einstein, Heather Kuzmich, Elon Musk, Lionel Messi, Eminem, and Satoshi Tajiri have in common? Celebrity? Creativity? Fame? Fortune? Yes, all of them have these things to varying degrees. Each and every one of them also has (or in Einstein’s case, had) autism.…

152. Not Coming Out... But Going To with Kevin O’Connor 48:30

3M ago48:30

48:30

As a Gen-Xer, I remember when the prevalent view about being gay was that it was something you’d be afraid for people to find out about. It’s also been our generation that started to change that. We’ve come a long way in the past couple decades, but it can still be a frightening prospect if your family and community are predominantly heteronormativ…

151. Trying Not to Die with Deb Krier 44:51

3M ago44:51

44:51

While it's difficult to track how many people with cancer do not seek treatment, the National Cancer Data Base (NCDB) conducted a study a few years ago that indicated about 9.2% of patients receive no first course of treatment. This could be for many reasons, including fear or disbelief in traditional or corporate medicine, alternative treatments t…

25:28

First of all, I’d like to take a moment to acknowledge and celebrate all the work that’s gone into getting to this milestone of 150 episodes of Fine is a 4-Letter Word.

9:59

This meditation is designed to clear stress and anxiety so you can feel grounded and safe in this moment. Sometimes anxiety can spin you into a frenzy. Worrisome thoughts get stuck playing on an endless loop through your mind. It doesn’t feel good and it doesn’t serve you in any useful way. Use this one to bring yourself back to tranquility, sereni…

149. Failing Doesn’t Make You A Failure with Christina Robinson Race 48:04

4M ago48:04

48:04

In almost all of my episodes on Fine is a 4-Letter Word, I deal in varying degrees with the circles of life. In two of the themes I explore with my guests – the values and beliefs they were raised with, and the moment in their life when they realized or found out that everything wasn’t “fine” – we see how these themes come together. And see where s…

148. Someday Is Not a Day On the Calendar with Noemi Beres 41:27

4M ago41:27

41:27

Your life is a collage of all the experiences you have, people you meet, and what you learn along the way. Like many collages, even if they begin with a concept or a plan, as you bring them together they may take directions you hadn’t anticipated and show you things even more interesting than what you originally expected. This was the case for Noem…

147. Gratitude is The Foundation of Confidence with Tara LaFon Gooch 46:40

4M ago46:40

5M ago45:17

45:17

Picture yourself living what seems like a regular life as a parent and entrepreneur, where everything seems uneventful and you have every reason to expect the rest of your life to follow a pretty straightforward path.

145. Elevate Your Financial Frequency with Susan Glusica 42:08

5M ago42:08

42:08

Here’s a challenge for you: ask your social media followers if they believe money can buy happiness or bring it up at your next social gathering and watch people fight it out. Some say you can; some say you can’t; others say that money cannot buy happiness like getting a box of happiness at the store, but it solves problems and greases the wheels t…

144. The Productive Perfectionist with Kathryn Mayer 45:00

5M ago45:00

45:00

When you hear the word “perfectionist”, what comes to mind? Maybe you think of yourself? Typically, it’s someone who holds themselves to impossibly and unachievably high standards, driven by fear of real or imagined consequences if they don’t get it (whatever “it” is) exactly right. Because perfect is rarely possible, they never “measure up,” and t…

142. The F*ck Yes Formula for Energizing Your Life: A Special Episode with Lori 23:03

5M ago23:03

23:03

Today’s solo episode is about ENERGY! When you look it up, Energy is defined as the capacity or ability to do work. I’d expand it to include the capacity or ability to have fun too. If you have no energy, you’re not going to be getting any work done or having any fun. “Fine” is not fun – it’s a 4-Letter Word! Tune in now as we cover three key areas…

141. Regenerating Joy with Brad Chandler 45:13

6M ago45:13

45:13

From the very first episode of Fine is a 4-Letter Word, where my guest revealed that she did not even know what emotions were until she was in middle age because she was punished as a child for having them, I’ve been sharing stories of what happens from the inside out. My mission and drive for this podcast is to give you hope, help you find your pa…

140. Replacing Fine with F*ck Off! with P.J. Roscoe 45:15

6M ago45:15

45:15

Children who are told to be “seen, but not heard” learn early on that their thoughts, feelings, and words don’t matter. Then as adults, they continue to silence themselves even when they do speak by hiding and suppressing their true thoughts and feelings. Growing up in a small Welsh village, P.J. Roscoe learned early on to know her place, don’t hav…

139. Are You a Fiction Writer of Your Own Story? with Lana McAra 52:29

6M ago52:29

52:29

Family trauma and drama flow through generations and can take on a form of fiction around “family unity,” “handed down traditions,” and “that’s the way it is” that sweep the suffering under the rug. But two things can happen. Either you’ll find yourself in pain from stepping on the lumps of dirt under the rug, or the rug will slip and slide due to …

138. Wisdom from Grandpa Owl with Philip Lower 54:09

6M ago54:09

54:09

In the United States, more than 64 million men identify themselves as fathers. Yet, 7 million American dads are absent from the lives of their minor children, and 17.4 million children live in fatherless homes! Philip Lower, technically, grew up as one of these statistics. His biological father took his own life when Phil was five years old, leavin…

7M ago52:54

52:54

Imagine you start with a sense of purpose, aligned with your goals, accustomed to your family supporting you in living your authentic life, and successfully practicing the art of the possible.

136. When The Shepherd Must Find His Own Way with Matthew Brackett 42:19

7M ago42:19

42:19

When you go out to find yourself, the journey can take you places you didn’t imagine you’d ever go. Maybe it will take you to a different town, or even a different country. But once you get there, it’s possible you’ll discover you really need to go somewhere else. Kind of like in the book The Alchemist. Matthew Brackett felt the calling to go into …

135. Pull The Weeds When They’re Wet with Kris Ward 39:24

7M ago39:24

39:24

What is our cultural obsession with busyness? How many businesspeople do you know who wear their exhaustion as a badge of honor? Kris Ward was raised with values she eventually learned she had to overcome – the values of moving fast, getting a lot of stuff done, and working hard. Hard work equals success. But is any of this true? Kris grew up, got …

134. Update on My Nomad Life: A Special Episode with Lori 39:27

7M ago39:27

39:27

Many of our listeners have been asking for an update on my life as a nomad.

133. Nobody Gave Me An Instruction Manual with Stephanie O’Brien 41:15

8M ago41:15

41:15

Leaving things better than you found them and being honest and open are good traits to have and will likely serve you well. The former makes the world, or your little part of it, better because you were part of it, while the latter both shows respect and earns you respect. Stephanie O’Brien was raised with these values. Although her life took an in…

132. Something From Less Than Nothing with Zack Lemear 55:45

8M ago55:45

55:45

This week’s guest, Zack Lemear, is a marketing and branding strategist who, on the surface, looks and sounds pretty much like any entrepreneur consultant. It makes sense he’s successful helping businesses with marketing and branding since his ticket in the birth lottery won him a blank slate to create and brand himself. Here on Fine is a 4-Letter W…

131. Beyond Safe Spaces with Gregory Halpen 43:32

8M ago43:32

43:32

Have you considered how much of what you do - even the things that seem to bring you joy - began as coping mechanisms to deal with trauma? Even your talents and your brilliance might be subconscious, or even conscious, reactions to traumatic experiences from your past. Gregory Halpen came from a family background of violence, addiction, and abuse. …

130. Just F**king Be Nice – To Yourself with Ely Delaney 43:26

8M ago43:26

43:26

As human beings, we are both programmed and pressured to say everything is “fine”. Someone asks, “how are you?” and you’re supposed to reply “fine, how are you?” Have you noticed that a benign, well-meaning core value many of us are raised with could be reinforcing this and blocking us from improving ourselves? Ely Delaney, whom I met through Succe…

129. An Inspired (And Haunted) Road Trip with Tracy St. Croi 47:05

9M ago47:05

47:05

Do you remember a time when the phone would ring and you had to answer to find out who was calling? How about when you saw that stack of presents with your name on them for Christmas or your birthday – did you have a sixth sense that told you which one was the present you really wanted? Tracy St. Croi was one of those kids back in the 1980s who jus…

128. Motivational Firewood with Steve Gamlin 46:57

9M ago46:57

46:57

Are you someone who uses self-deprecation to get laughs? Steve Gamlin was too until a pivotal moment when his friend Kris figuratively put on a pair of steel toe boots and kicked his ass and woke him up to the dangerous effects of doing that. Steve was raised to believe in the value of hard work. When Steve was 7, his dad bought their house and sta…

127. Rage Against the Midlife with Kimberly (Kimby) Samson 44:09

9M ago44:09

44:09

Have you ever seen those memes that compare the co-stars of “The Firm”, Wilford Brimley looking elderly at age 56 and Tom Cruise looking young at age 56? These memes show us that these days, people are aging much more gracefully, or at least not according to the same timetable they used to. Did the timetable ever make sense to begin with? Is there …

126. Living the Beige Life with Sonia Graham 43:25

9M ago43:25

43:25

When your life story is dominated by trauma resulting from one fucked-up thing after another, it plays a nasty trick on your definition of what’s “fine”. After surviving being killed almost three times before she was two years old, Sonia Graham was adopted into a strict Puerto Rican / Irish Catholic family. Her father was in the Air Force, so while…

125. The Joy Code with Marc Zalmanoff 49:04

9M ago49:04

49:04

Does it seem like everyone else is doing great while you’re struggling? And because it seems like you’re the only one who can’t manage and everyone else has their shit together, you’re either afraid or unwilling to talk about it? But what if you then got to have deep, meaningful conversations with other people and discovered they’re going through t…

10M ago53:03

53:03

What if it’s never been “fine”? What if it feels like every good thing comes with downfalls and you’re racing to keep up? Adam Hommey was raised with the values of pursuing academic excellence and being selfless to the point where it became a detriment. At the same time he was expected to achieve, he felt denied the opportunity to enjoy his success…

123. Midlife Emergence with Jen Berlingo 47:24

10M ago47:24

47:24

Many of us go through life wondering if we’re really living our authentic lives. Are you doing what you really want to do? Are you being who you really want to be? Even if you’ve created a great life, been fortunate, and haven’t had what you consider an existential crisis, is something just not quite right? Jen Berlingo had what seemed to be a grea…

122. Her Year of Exploration with Kathy Goughenour 47:45

10M ago47:45

47:45

Ever go through a part of your life thinking everything is fine, but then experience that moment when your whole world turns upside down? It could be a debilitating health issue. Or maybe finding out just when you achieved what you thought were your dreams, that it wasn’t what you really wanted after all. Or it comes with baggage that you didn't ba…

121. Change, Control, and Courage: A Special Episode with Lori 40:37

11M ago40:37

40:37

In this end-of-year solo episode, I’m talking about change, control, and courage. How do you identify the need for change? What are the signs of dissatisfaction, lack of motivation, and other indicators that signal a need for change in various aspects of your life? I’m inviting you to reflect on where in your own life you may be hesitant to make ne…

120. Flip the Script with Yvonne Marchese 47:23

11M ago47:23

47:23

Sometimes things seem to fall apart just when you think all is going well, and sometimes it seems to happen over and over where it feels like you can never catch a break. But what if those moments where things are no longer "fine" turn out to be springboards that move you to the next step? Growing up, Yvonne Marchese was raised with a strong work e…

119. The Truth is a Lie with Sally Lotz 45:19

11M ago45:19

45:19

Imagine, for a moment, being a child and knowing something was wrong, but being too young to understand. Now picture yourself in a cult without knowing the word for it. That’s what happened to Sally Lotz. Until she was four years old, things seemed normal. Then her parents divorced, her dad left the picture as he served overseas in the military, an…

118. Overcoming as an Overachiever with Holly Bertone 49:11

11M ago49:11

49:11

A lot of us have a story about that time we hit rock bottom. For some of us, we find out there's yet another rock bottom when the floor bursts out from the one we're on. Then another. What happens when you're looking for the safety net, like someone in a freefall, and it doesn't appear? How does it feel when you have values but are physically incap…

Many people believe they have a dream lifestyle – the perfect house, the perfect job or business, the perfect family and social cycle, just everything perfect. Some create checklists or vision boards so they can visualize it and align their thoughts and actions toward having it for themselves. But what if you think you’ve achieved it, but it turns …

116. New Reasons (and Ways) to Celebrate Thanksgiving: A Special Episode with Lori 18:50

12M ago18:50

18:50

In this very special solo episode, I'm talking about gratitude. But let’s dig into it from a different perspective. We'll be starting with a seemingly random question - are you interested in getting high? Because that’s one of the neurological effects gratitude has on us - no sketchy dealer required. It involves a particular chemical in our brains …
