Reception

| American Songwriter |   [6] |
| Rolling Stone Australia | [7] |
Jade Kennedy from Rolling Stone Australia called the album a "triumph" saying "Corby's soulful vocals bring everything together with finesse. The auditory equivalent to hot cocoa: satisfying and sweet."[7]
Alli Patton from American Songwriter felt that "Overall, Everything's Fine is more than just fine. The album is a groovy, spacey, soul-stirring message of hope where dreamy, drifting vocals meet easy, inoffensive sounds. It's a passionate, but also a perceptive record, one that understands and lets listeners know it will all be okay."[6]
Michael Major from BroadwayWorld called it "Corby's most innovative, sonically adventurous and resonant album yet."[8] Beat Magazine called the album "an absolute swoonfest".[9]
