“It’s Going To Be OK” is a hard thing to believe given the state of, oh, everything. Many things are, in fact, not going to be okay at all. But on the advice of a wise therapist, we’re on a quest to find one okay thing about every day. Each morning, we bring you a short story, essay, or interview about one thing that makes us — or our guests — feel like it might not all be so bad ... even if some things are. Join us every morning to start your day with the opposite of a doom scroll.

Finding the OK things in life when you are living through the Worst Case Scenario can feel borderline impossible. When you are facing down the horrible things, the idea of even trying to find one OK thing is probably laughable. Elise Loehnen is staring Terrible right in the eye – she has been recently diagnosed with breast cancer and had a brain aneurysm. And yet, she joins Nora on the show today to talk about these “speed bumps” (yes, those are her words, she is really that bad ass) and how she’s finding the OK in every day in spite of it all.

Nora McInerny welcomes poet David Gate for a lively conversation about finding “okay” in the everyday. They talk about unexpected moments of connection, new hope in Alzheimer’s research, the joy of Costco, family life, and why politicians should be held to their promises. Along the way: billionaires, hot dogs, Kelly Clarkson, and the small comforts that make a difficult world feel a little more manageable.

These days, daily life can feel unpredictable. Every moment, many of us are bracing for impact or expecting to be pushed back into the pit of despair – but there is always a bright spot of OK. Today, Nora’s finding that for you and encouraging you to lower the bar. The thing that can make you realize that it’s going to be OK can be small, mundane, or ordinary. That doesn’t make them any less spectacular. On this episode, Nora talks about finding the OK moments even when you’re in the thick of grief, her amazing experience in Burlington, Vermont (if only she could pack up from Arizona and move there forever), her decluttering journey, restarting The Artist’s Way, and more. Read more about my life with a wife! My experience with morning pages is documented here and my conversation with Elizabeth Kott about The Artist’s Way is here.

On today’s episode of IGTBO, Nora is joined by host of Nuance Needed podcast and friend Amanda White to give you your weekly dose of OK.

If you didn’t know, this is a very post-office friendly podcast. Tune in to take your mind off the general NOT-OKness of the world – not everything will be OK, but something will be.

Some things are just a little too perfect to be random – and this is coined by Nora and guest Caroline Moss as “the portal opening.” In today’s episode of IGTBO, Nora and Caroline talk about the small moments of magic and stars aligning: Nora’s daughter’s new boyfriend’s invisible string through their lives, signs from Caroline’s grandmother, and a puppy finally learning how to ask to go outside after weeks of failed training. Not everything is going to be OK all the time. We know that. You know that. But this episode is a celebration of the moments where it feels like the universe is giving you a little nudge to remind you that something will be OK.

A mattress in New York once told Nora, “You cannot let the bastards get you down.” Today, with this episode of IGTBO, we are not letting the bastards get us down – we’re celebrating the OK things in the world. And Nora’s algorithm (and our voicemail box) have been full of people leaning into the Summer of Surrender (click here to get the full picture!). Whether it’s finding gratitude in the fact that you have hot water and a microwave or World Cup fans being genuinely wholesome, there’s always something OK to find.

On today’s episode, Nora is joined by Elizabeth Kott to renew your hope in humanity and give you your much-needed dose of OK. If you continue to forget the days of the week (Tuesday shouldn’t exist and we are prepared to cut them out of our calendars), find joy in having and using multiple notebooks while constantly on the quest to find the most PERFECT notebook, and love gossiping about the Summer House reunion (the receipts re: the Amanda and West betrayal is INSANE), you are very much in the right place. Take a moment today and find the OK with us.

Some days, OK things are all around us and naming them is a breeze. On other days, it feels like you have never, EVER been OK in your entire life. Whatever day you’re having, Nora and special guest and friend of the pod Jo Piazza are bringing you a message: to join them in their version of a 90s summer of surrender. They talk about lowering expectations, enjoying the whimsical little things (think: bedazzled pill bottles and cold pasta salad in the heat), and what parenting in the summer looks like when it isn’t a 10 second Instagram reel.
