Launched by model and chronic pain advocate Jean Campbell, I’m Fine voices and breaks down the silence shrouding pain in all its myriad forms
One of the most powerful aspects of I’m Fine is the incidental exploration of the language of pain. During the worst days of her own journey, Campbell recognised that she didn’t have the language to express what was happening. “Which meant that I had no way of getting help,” she says. Pain is personal yet often flattened in medical contexts to silly scales of one to ten .
” With listeners in over 85 countries, the podcast has already achieved what Campbell hoped for: a community of listeners and an opportunity for connection. The model has recently also launched a SpeakPipe platform where listeners can share their own stories. To live in pain can be isolating and lonely but “when you’re able to connect with someone else, and hear about them, it suddenly switches on this little bit of hope,” she reflects.
