I’m Fine hosted by Jean Campbell meets Poet, Model, Musician and Trans Activist Kai Isaiah Jamal to talk about their journey creating their debut EP Impatiently Waiting, reclaiming autonomy through music, and what it means to build an authentic identity – in fashion, music, the everyday – to own who you are and go beyond other people’s gaze.

Acclaimed South-London spoken word poet, writer, performer and trans visibility activist, Kai Isaiah Jamal dedicates much of their creative time to writing about personal experiences, discrimination, and dysphoria, they also work to educate others on how to be a better ally to trans people and helping long marginalised communities play a greater role in shaping cultures around the world. In 2020 they were appointed as the Institute of Contemporary Art’s first-ever poet in residence in 2020. The following year, Jamal became the first Black trans model to walk the runway for Louis Vuitton. Through their powerful work spanning multiple types of media, Jamal has become “the voice of their generation,” as the late designer Virgil Abloh told Vogue in 2021.

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 is a safe space and platform where high-performance people talk honestly 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.
