I’m Fine hosted by Jean Campbell sits down with Cora Corré, friend, model and activist. They discuss family, grief, legacy, and the quiet strength it takes to stay true to yourself under pressure. Cora talks about her grandmother – Vivienne Westwood – growing up and navigating public and private grief, how to protect yourself, how to have softness in difficult moments, and the importance of kindness, intuition, and moral clarity. From the mission and pillars that inspire the work of the Vivienne Foundation, to the loss and legacy of a grandmother, Cora discusses the public and private faces and what has inspired her and how she has carved out her own identity, followed her calling, and how family and fashion have driven her work in advocacy and human rights. They discuss how it’s OK to not be OK and why self-preservation, honesty, and compassion matter when facing loss and change. This is an episode that explores grief, identity, resilience, and the values that shape us.

Cora Corré is a model and activist from London who worked alongside her grandmother – the late great designer Vivienne Westwood - to develop the Vivienne Foundation, built upon four pillars of change: Halt Climate Change, Stop War, Defend Human Rights and Protest Capitalism. The Vivienne Foundation exists to honour, protect and continue the legacy of Vivienne's creativity and activism to create a better society and halt climate change. The Vivienne Foundation continues to support and collaborate with NGO’s on key issues around the Four Pillars. Westwood used her voice to lead a relentless fight for justice. Corré honours her legacy through shedding light on issues crucial to our collective moral compass. The Vivienne Foundation is set up as a not-for-profit company to enable the Foundation to have political aims and views within our campaigning and advocacy work.

About I’m Fine
“I’m Fine is more than a Podcast — it’s a service. A space for the millions of people navigating pain in silence, often without the resources or language we all deserve. The world isn’t set up to support people in pain and we want to help change that.” 
Jean Campbell. 

I’m Fine is a Podcast hosted by Model, Writer and Mental Health Advocate Jean Campbell it’s a safe space and platform where high-performance people talk honestly, often humorously, about their life experiences and healing as Jean explores the inner world behind their outward success. Jean has navigated chronic pain since she was 12 years old, this experience inspired her to create I’m Fine to help reshape the stigma around pain - emotional, physical, and mental - to give a voice to the many who hide behind the words: ‘I’m Fine’. The series features conversations about mental health, identity, resilience, and how we cope when life doesn’t go to plan.
