Why I got a new therapist, how I’m finding creativity again, and realigning the podcast this week. We go into grief around the holidays, the mind & body disconnect I'm struggling with,  the value of creatively expressing ourselves, and an in person event I’m planning for 2023!

Setting boundaries with yourself and others can help set you up for success whether you’re introverted or extroverted! Anthony and I share our experience with taking a ‘Are You An Introvert or Extrovert’ quiz and we answer some questions like how we spend our time, where we feel the most productive, and how we relax. We also talk about how this relates to the workplace, my personal relationship with alcohol, and our differences in energy levels.

Using humor and laughter to cope with difficult emotions can be so helpful. All the cringe-worthy memories from when we were younger came out in this episode and we hope you can laugh, relate, and be awkward with us this week!

Together we can find comfort in change by experimenting with different rituals and patterns that might bring us emotional support. Once I starting visualizing my life as “different seasons” or “different chapters” I could lean into change more, which allowed me to break free from my inner critic and unrealistic expectations. This is not about changing other people or changing your entire life - this is about finding small ways to talk to yourself more compassionately and beginning to rewrite old routines!

Explore podcasting as a hobby or a way creatively express yourself! In this episode, you can learn what equipment and resources can help you begin recording your own podcast. Although learning something new can be difficult, don’t let the fear of failure hold you back. We all make mistakes along the way when learning, and I am still growing too! We can be imperfect together – This is your invitation to take a leap and start your own podcast, or send this episode to friend who has been wanting to create their own show too.

The goal is not to shut down the emotions or run away from the panic, but distraction and coping skills can certainly help after coming down from those fight, flight, or freeze feelings. In this imperfect episode I share how we can practice moving through our most anxious feelings – Using my personal experience and tools I’ve acquired from trial and error, therapy, and videos online we go through 5 ways to move through panic attacks today. I hope you learn something new to apply to your own life or share with a friend, and hopefully talking about the hard things now can make them seem less scary if/when they happen in the future! Love, Clare.

Today, my husband and I share exactly how we meet each other’s needs, why our wedding was not what we thought it would be, how we maintained a long distance relationship, and how we navigate mental health in our marriage. I sat down with Anthony this week to continue our conversation from the last podcast episode, and we are going into ‘all things relationships/difficulties we have overcome’. Together we realized it’s not about what we do, but who we are in this life – Tune in to see how this philosophy has brought us closer than ever.

We are bringing romance, laughter, and joyful conversation to this week’s episode! My husband, Anthony, joins us to debut the story of how we met. In part 1 we begin to share how our friendship quickly evolved, what being a supportive partner has looked like throughout the years, and why we initially fell in love.

I can talk about coping skills, but I’m also scrolling on social media. I can talk about healing, but I’m also hurting. Let’s grieve together with our own timelines and no expectations - Join me this week for a low key episode that I recorded from my bed where I continue to share the dreams I’ve been having, what I do to distract myself, what’s happening day to day, and how I’m expressing my love for my grandma who passed away.

The feelings of denial and disassociation when experiencing trauma and the death of a loved one can be scary and unpredictable. We don’t need to automatically bounce back and start feeling “better” after a traumatic event. In this episode I share more about my relationship with my grandma, the chaotic story of speaking at her funeral, and how it’s okay to feel lost + empty in the unknown.
