Coming to television
Stop pretending
you’re fine
with Krista Rooney
“The conversations we’re having behind closed doors are coming to television.”
Stop Pretending You’re Fine with Krista Rooney is a nationally distributed talk show filmed in Hollywood and created around one simple idea: some of the conversations that could change our lives are the ones we’re still afraid to have out loud.
Krista sits down with experts, practitioners, healers, authors, speakers, founders, advocates, and changemakers to talk about what people are actually living through, what we’ve learned to hide, and what might happen if we stopped pretending and started telling the truth.
Distributed through the Rachel McCord Network to 110 million households across Samsung, Roku, Apple, Amazon + more.
This is bigger than a talk show.
We spend so much of our lives learning how to look fine. We show up. We keep going. We build businesses, raise families, lead people, help other people heal, and become incredibly good at carrying things no one else can see.
Stop Pretending You’re Fine creates space for the conversations underneath all of that. Not just what’s wrong, but what we’ve learned, what actually helps, what needs to change, and what becomes possible when someone finally says the thing everyone else in the room has been thinking.
Because one honest conversation can create a ripple. Enough ripples create waves. And waves can change the freaking world.
Real people. Real expertise. Conversations that matter.
The guests on Stop Pretending You’re Fine don’t all do the same kind of work, and that’s the point. One conversation might be about trauma or grief. The next could be about what animals can teach us about being human, what happens when a business owner stops pretending everything is working, navigating an identity shift, rebuilding after life blows up the plan, or something none of us have even thought to talk about yet.
What connects the people in Krista’s chair isn’t a job title. They have something worth saying that could genuinely impact the person watching at home.
