You know the phrase- "Time flys when you're having fun" In this episode, I’m talking about exactly that. About those rare, magical activities that make you forget to check the time. You know—when you're so at peace, so caught up in joy or focus, that the clock slips away completely. In a world obsessed with rushing and deadlines, I wanted to slow it all down. I also asked a bunch of people what brings them that kind of peace—and their answers reminded me just how many ways there are to feel fully alive.

It’s a heartwarming reminder that when it comes to real friendship, distance doesn’t stand a chance. Welcome to "Friendship Finds A Way."

In this episode, I reflect on the quiet power behind the quote: “And if I asked you to name all the things you love, how long would it take to name yourself?” I share three honest truths about why self-love feels so hard, how we teach others to treat us, and why naming yourself is a practice—not a moment. This is a gentle reminder that you deserve to be on your own list!

In this episode, I talk about what it’s like to face things alone — from scary tryouts to moments when you have to walk in with no one by your side. Doing things on your own isn’t always fun, but I’ve realized it’s where some of the biggest growth happens. I share what I’ve learned about becoming more independent (even when it’s uncomfortable) and why those solo moments can actually make you stronger, mentally and physically.

In this episode of Claire In A Chair, we’re diving into a question that so many of us face: should you set your expectations high and risk disappointment, or keep them low to protect yourself? We’ll explore why low expectations can feel safer but might hold you back, how high expectations can be motivating but also lead to pressure or letdowns, and why the real magic is in finding a balance through something called realistic optimism. Whether it’s about school, friendships, or everyday hopes, this episode is all about staying hopeful and grounded — so you can dream big without breaking down.
