FINE is a 4-Letter Word

491 episodes - English - Latest episode: 8 days ago - ★★★★★ - 23 ratings

Wasn’t it just a couple years ago you were sitting on the beach at spring break in Ft. Lauderdale – listening to the Pet Shop Boys, U2, and Def Leppard - with your entire life ahead of you? Now you’re looking back 30 plus years and wondering what the hell happened.

Not that it’s been all bad. Of course, there’ve been highs and lows. And today, everything’s fine. It’s just fine. That’s the problem. You don’t really feel like you have anything to complain about. Lots of people might envy what you have. But you’re feeling a deep undercurrent of suck. Like, there must be something more. And you don’t know what to do about it.

Welcome to Fine is a 4-Letter Word, with host Lori Saitz. Each week, you'll hear inspiring stories of self-discovery and courage from people who have said F*ck Being Fine and have transformed their lives and businesses. Plus, get practical tips and takeaways to move you from spinning in place - to forward action - so you can create a life of joy.

None of us knows how much time we have here. So we have to make the most of it. We have to do the things that light us up and bring us joy.

This show will give you hope, help you find your passion and purpose, and dare you to see the life that’s waiting for you. You’ll never hear - or say - the word “fine” in the same way again.

February 17, 2022 09:00 - 45 minutes - 62.1 MB

Today’s guest has been on my list of people to invite to the show for a long time. Lisa David Olson’s humor has kept me laughing on social media for a couple of years.

In fact, humor is the tool Lisa has used to get through her fine and less than fine life situations. I was eager to talk with her about this because it’s not a tool an...

42. (S2E6) Meditation: Love and Forgiving

February 10, 2022 09:15 - 10 minutes - 12 MB

Part of love that we don’t often consider is forgiveness. When we’re able to forgive, we’re able to make space for and allow more love into our world. Forgiveness is not forgetting or condoning what someone did. It is acknowledging that they made a choice that wasn’t to your liking. When you forgive, you set yourself free. You open space in your heart for love. Who is it you need to forgive today? If there’s a specific topic you’d like to explore in a meditation, please let me know. Si...
