Everything is Fine is a series for women on life over 40. Hosted by former Lucky magazine founding editor Kim France and author and editor Jennifer Romolini, each episode digs deep into the identity shift that comes with navigating this alternately weird and liberating stage of life. A chat-show with themed episodes and interview guests from the media and entertainment worlds, we tackle our fears, our health, our careers, self-care, and how to negotiate being called “middle-aged” when you feel anything but.

Customer Reviews
Love this podcast - 5 star!!!
I’ve been a listener since the beginning and this is one of my podcast highlights of the week.Thank you Jennifer and Kim.
I love these women!
Without doubt, the best podcast for women over 40. Great chemistry between these two and every episode makes me laugh. Keep up the great work!
I love it
This weekly podcast gives me the same excitement I had getting a new issue of my favourite magazine when I was a teenager. I love how Kim and Jen talk frankly about the challenges of ageing- both psychological and physical. But always their humour and of course Kim’s laugh (which ‘gives me life’ as the young people say) make the whole show end on a life affirming note. Their guests are always so inspiring and I often find myself making some important gear changes after hearing the interviews. I think I might just enjoy this ageing ride if we can all be in it together! Come join the party!!
