Sobre este título

Life is full of difficult things, from tiny everyday disappointments to life-altering events. Everyone’s at least a little bit Not OK, something grief expert and psychotherapist Megan Devine knows from the inside out. In wide ranging, insightful, deep conversations, Megan talks with people about their often invisible losses - and what they’ve learned about being seen and supported in difficult times.

With guests pulled from the front lines of entertainment, medicine, education, and activism, the conversations in It’s OK that You’re Not OK are funny, complex, emotional, and hopeful - maybe not your typical dinner party topics, but none of us are entirely OK, and it’s time we start talking about that.

New episodes each and every Monday, from the author of the best-selling book, It’s OK That You’re Not OK, and iHeartMedia. Find Megan online at @refugeingrief & follow the show @ItsOKPod

  • Protecting Your Mental Health in the Healthcare Workplace, with the Burned Out Burnout Expert, Dr. Jessi Gold

    Protecting Your Mental Health in the Healthcare Workplace, with the Burned Out Burnout Expert, Dr. Jessi Gold
    Jul 1 2024
    We know that healthcare workers are burned out and exhausted. Provider mental health is a huge issue… but are the institutions listening? This week on It’s OK, burnout expert Dr. Jessi Gold talks to us about (obviously) burnout, but also ways HCW* can start to change the workplace culture into one that actually values the human workforce. Sound unlikely? Listen in for Dr. Gold’s ideas for a grassroots movement - using the language of capitalism to get the c-suite to listen. *We talk a bunch about HCW in this episode, but the topics involved are relevant to everyone who feels even a little bit exhausted by the pressures of the world. Dr. Gold’s new book, How Do You Feel?: One Doctor's Search for Humanity in Medicine, is out on October 8, 2024. For more info visit drjessigold.com In this episode we cover: Can you be emotionless and still practice good medicine?How medical training seeks out perfectionists, and then uses that perfectionism as a way to wring out even more work Why you can’t self-care your way out of burnout, but you can support yourself inside the catastropheWays to get the administration to start valuing their workforce (spoiler: it involves speaking the language of capitalism!)

  • Over and Over Again: Illustrator Aubrey Hirsch on the Power of Storytelling

    Over and Over Again: Illustrator Aubrey Hirsch on the Power of Storytelling
    Jun 24 2024

    The world is such a hot mess: every day a new disaster, a new human rights catastrophe. It can just feel… endless. Illustrator Aubrey Hirsch joins us to talk about outrage and trauma and community building - it’s like the greatest hits of modern culture. But mostly, she joins us to talk about art - specifically, the ways that storytelling helps us band together and work towards the world we all want.

    PS: Listen all the way through so you don’t miss Aubrey’s slightly sinister but ultimately functional ideas on hope.

    In this episode we cover:

    - The relationship between rage and creation: when there’s so much wrong with the world all you can do is scream

    - Why taking action to change things matters - even if your actions won’t save everyone

    - Women and anger: hoo boy, it’s a whole thing.

    - Why healing inside trauma is actually kind of… boring.

    - Connecting through the power of storytelling

    We're re-releasing some of our favorite episodes from the first 3 seasons. This episode was originally recorded in 2022.
