No F*cks Given Podcast

Back by popular demand, it’s another episode devoted to the principles behind Sarah’s book You Do You. This week, she talks about the value of “being weird” and why you should not only accept weirdness in yourself (if that’s your thing) but also accept it in other people, because why not? Nobody is hurting anyone else by being a goofball, and in fact it’s probably making life a little more fun during a time when we could all use a laugh. She gives a pep talk for all the weird weirdos out there, plus actionable tips for anyone looking to get more comfortable with getting weird—and a few stories from her own Freaky Files. Enjoy, and as always, listen to the end for the NFG tip of the week! Available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Radio.com, or wherever you get your podcasts. New episode every Tuesday.

Today Sarah’s taking a break from No F*cks Given to recommend another podcast she thinks you’ll love: Body Stuff with Dr. Jen Gunter. We all have questions about our bodies, how they work, and what we can do to keep them running smoothly. Should we bother with juice cleanses? Is it actually possible to “boost” our immune systems? We’re constantly bombarded with ads, news stories, and social media posts telling us how to optimize our health—but a lot of these sources that pretend to be backed by science actually have another agenda. Dr. Jen Gunter is here to bust the lies we’re told—and sold—about our health, debunking some of the stickiest myths out there while helping us to understand how our bodies really work. Episode 1 of this fun, informative podcast is out now, and it answers the question: Do I really need eight glasses of water a day? To listen, find and follow Body Stuff with Dr. Jen Gunter wherever you get your podcasts.

May is Mental Health Awareness Month, and inspired by listener emails, today’s episode features an important conversation about how our relative levels of privilege affect our access to “wellness”—including self-care and mental health care and of course, the ability to not give a f*ck, depending on where you fall on the spectrum. Sarah approaches these complex and nuanced issues with empathy and humor, probably also making some missteps along the way, but ultimately in hopes of using her own privilege to raise awareness about all of it and offer ideas, inspiration, and support to those who can’t easily access it anywhere else. As always, listen to the end for the NFG tip of the week! Available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Radio.com, or wherever you get your podcasts. New episode every Tuesday.

This is the second week of “you do you”-themed conversation, advice, and tips from New York Times bestselling author Sarah Knight, focusing on how to accept yourself for who you are, have confidence in what you want, and then go after it effectively. Sarah shares her personal story of being a “recovering perfectionist” and talks about why the well-intentioned mantra “Do your best” can be damaging. Plus she teaches you how to embrace being “difficult” and how to shift your mindset to turn your flaws (or what other people seem to think are your flaws…) into strengths with a trick she calls “mental redecorating.” And as always, stay tuned to the end for the NFG tip of the week!

It’s hard enough to figure out what you think—why are you wasting so much time, energy, and money worrying about what other people think, especially about YOUR life choices? Sarah Knight explains both WHY and HOW to stop giving a f*ck about other people’s opinions (which you cannot control) and focus on your own wants, needs, and desires (which you totally CAN control). And she shows you how to do it without being an a**hole, because there’s simply no need for that. The No F*cks Given podcast is available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Radio.com, or wherever you get your podcasts. New episode every Tuesday.

In-the-moment strategies for anyone experiencing one of the “Four Faces of Freaking Out” that Sarah Knight describes in this episode: Anxiety, Sadness, Anger, or Avoidance (aka “Ostrich Mode”). Sarah offers up a technique from her bestselling book Calm the F*ck Down that she calls “sleight of mind.” It helps you shift your mindset from the freakout to its flip-side—like a f*cking magician!—at least for long enough to keep you from doing anything that’s going to make your situation WORSE. In addition to eight great tips (some of which you may have heard before and some that you definitely haven’t…), Sarah tells a personal story about “Mexican Airport Syndrome” and why you want to avoid it, and delivers a useful NFG tip of the week for anyone who suffers from anxiety-induced insomnia. Available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Radio.com, or wherever you get your podcasts. New episode every Tuesday.

Freaking out is a fact of life. We all do it in different ways, over different stuff—whether we have clinical ongoing anxiety or just “situational” anxiety about the random sh*t life throws at us on any given day. Sarah Knight (who does suffer from clinical anxiety) wants to help ALL of us with ALL of that. Tune in to get simple, practical tools for identifying and processing your worries, sorting the sh*t you can control from the sh*t you can’t, and letting go of the latter so you can focus on the former. Available on Apple Podcasts, Spotify, Radio.com, or wherever you get your podcasts. New episode every Tuesday.
