Nobody Told Me!

What if the fear you feel isn't a stop sign — but a compass pointing you exactly where you're supposed to go?   In this episode of Nobody Told Me!, we're talking with Jenny Wood — author of Wild Courage: Go After What You Want and Get It — about how fear, ambition, self-doubt, and boldness are all tangled together on the road to creating a life you actually want.   Jenny spent 18 years rising through the ranks at Google, ultimately leading a team responsible for tens of billions in revenue, and founding Own Your Career, one of the largest career development programs in Google's history. She knows firsthand what it means to step into bigger, braver versions of yourself — even when it feels terrifying.   Together, we dive into how to turn fear into fuel, why being “too much” is actually your greatest strength, and what it really looks like to bet on yourself when nobody else hands you permission.   If you've ever wrestled with impostor syndrome, second-guessed your dreams, or wondered if you're “ready” to make a leap — this conversation will remind you that courage isn't something you wait for. It's something you choose.

In this unforgettable episode of Nobody Told Me, we sit down with Rossana D'Antonio — engineer, truth-seeker, and author of the haunting memoir 26 Seconds: Grief and Blame in the Aftermath of Losing My Brother in a Plane Crash.  Rosanna talks about the day her younger brother Cesare died in a commercial plane crash just moments before he was supposed to land safely.   But this isn't just a story about a tragedy. It's about what happens after the cameras leave. After the system points fingers. After your loved one is blamed for their own death.   Rossana opens up about the heartbreak of losing Cesare, the painful process of watching him be scapegoated by the airline industry, and the years she spent digging through wreckage — literal and emotional — to uncover the truth. Together, we talk about grief, rage, silence, memory, and what it means to become your loved one's final advocate.   This conversation is raw, real, and deeply human. If you've ever felt powerless after a loss, or if you've ever had to fight to be believed, Rossana's words will stay with you long after the episode ends.

We're joined by Dr. Guy Winch, a licensed psychologist, bestselling author, and one of the world's leading voices in emotional health. You might know him from his powerful TED Talks, viewed over 35 million times, or from his bestselling books like Emotional First Aid and How to Fix a Broken Heart.   In this episode, we talk with Guy about something so many of us experience but rarely know how to navigate: the grief of losing a pet. Guy explains why that grief can feel just as intense—or even more so—than losing a human loved one, and why it's crucial that we treat pet loss with the same compassion, validation, and care.   He shares deeply personal stories, as well as science-backed advice on how to process our feelings, memorialize our pets, and let ourselves heal without shame.   To learn more about his work, visit guywinch.com.
