• Melissa Villaseñor | Healing Through Creativity, Running, and Letting Go of People-Pleasing
    Feb 10 2026

    In this episode of I’m Fine, It’s Fine, we sit down with comedian, artist, and impressionist Melissa Villaseñor for a thoughtful, grounding conversation about healing through creativity, movement, and learning how to listen to your nervous system.

    We talk about how running became a form of regulation, how art and expression create safety, and what it looks like to untangle people-pleasing patterns while staying connected to yourself. Melissa opens up about emotional sensitivity, self-trust, and the ways creativity can help us process what words sometimes can’t.

    This episode explores nervous systems, identity, and the quiet work of choosing yourself — even when it feels uncomfortable.

  • Tamar Rubin - The Tortured Artist Is So BS
    Dec 16 2025

    In this week’s episode of I’m Fine, It’s Fine, Comedian Amber Autry and Trauma Therapist Melanie Reese sit down with Comedian Tamar Rubin for a honest, hilarious deep dive into the messy stuff we ALL deal with but rarely talk about. We cover ADHD medication, what happens when you get way too close to your therapist, navigating OCD spirals, and why “the tortured artist” narrative is total BS.

    Tamar gets real about what happens on stage when you haven’t dealt with your personal life, Melanie helps guide on how to handle people being mad at you, and the group discusses why comedy hits different when you’re actually taking care of yourself. Expect raw truth, big laughs, and a ton of relatable moments for anyone juggling mental health, creativity, and being a human.

    Perfect for fans searching for: ADHD podcast, OCD conversations, therapy boundaries, stand-up comedy struggles, women in comedy, mental health and humor, creative burnout, healing while performing, and comedians being real.

    Listen, laugh, and maybe avoid texting your therapist after hours.
