Welcome to The Lonely Clam! I’m Adrianne Creek, and this podcast is for anyone who feels too much, thinks too much, or just wants someone else to go first. I talk about healing, grief, identity shifts, boundaries, loneliness, spirituality, and whatever existential crisis I’m currently in. It’s messy, sometimes funny, often personal, and never trying to fix you. I’m not here to sell you wellness—just to tell the truth and see who relates. New episodes drop when I have something to say or cry about. Healing isn’t sexy. It’s sacred. And sometimes it sounds like this.

    Once Upon a December

    This episode is the home your nervous system recognizes.The home your spirit craves.The home that doesn’t disappear when someone doesn’t understand you. I talk about what it’s like to feel like you don’t belong anywhere, how heavy home dynamics can mess with your identity, and why chosen family isn’t just important- it’s crucial. I spill some tea on the roommate who must not be named, discuss the standards I’ve developed for the women in my life, and dissect a recurring dream that made me realize I’ve been outsourcing safety to people who could never truly see me in the first place. Once Upon a December… because some of the deepest lessons happen in the cold.

    Holy or Hidden?

    This episode is not another tired segment about magic underwear or trashing religion. It’s about the things they don’t teach in Sunday school: that unity can come at the cost of your truth, compliance gets mistaken for love, and identity is often the first thing you’re asked to sacrifice for family. I give a hot take on cults and why Mormonism is more complex than that label, grieve the loss of belonging, rant a little, and ultimately reclaim my agency. This is an episode about control disguised as care, obedience framed as virtue, and what happens when you stop shrinking just to stay connected. If you’ve been praised for being easy to manage, this one is for you.

    Wild Child

    Wild Child started with an Enya song I used to play on repeat as a kid, when the universe grabbed me by the shoulders and said, remember her? This episode is a slow unraveling of inner child work, shadow work, and the kind of healing that doesn’t announce itself—it sneaks up on you while crying over your ex. After starting over (again), I talk about grief, loneliness, childhood patterns, and what it’s like to lose faith and slowly find it again. This isn’t a “open your third eye and om” episode—it’s about sitting with yourself long enough to hear what your younger self has been saying all along. Reflective, funny, a little existentially spiraled, and a reminder that healing doesn’t make you softer—it makes you more honest. If you’ve been feeling disconnected or spiritually homesick, Wild Child is your sign to go get her. She’s still there. Probably listening to Enya.

    Into The Void

    In this deeply personal episode, I buss it wide open. I talk honestly about my struggles with authenticity and vulnerability while navigating a move to Nevada, the end of a significant relationship, losing my job, and starting over in a new place. I explore the difference between short-term stability and actually building a foundation that lasts, and how old patterns like hiding parts of myself to fit in with family or friends just don’t serve me anymore.This episode is a meditation on embracing “the void,” that uncomfortable, uncertain space between chapters of life. I talk about the importance of faith, boundaries, and self-care during times of uncertainty, and I encourage you to surrender to the unknown, prioritize self-love, and resist the urge to distract yourself with relationships or external validation. Growth is messy, nonlinear, often lonely, and demands more from you than comfort ever will.

    Daddy Issues

    I’m letting off a little steam in this one. I unravel what it’s like to straddle love and distance with your own parents - when belief, expectation, and silence get tangled up in identity. I dive into memories and dreams that still sting, wrestle with what it means to set boundaries, and unpack that unrelenting ache of feeling unchosen as a daughter. Scattered through the episode are clips from Elemental - echoing the pain of disappointing a parent by living the life you choose, and the struggle of having a fiery disposition in a world that often asks you to cool down. I also share what’s grounding me: journaling in the dark, tarot spreads with sharp edges, leaning on the few safe souls who really see me. This isn’t a finished story - it’s permission to feel, to name, and to light your own way through the fog. If you’ve ever felt like love was conditional, this one’s for you.

    🅰🅳🆁🅸🅰🅽🅽🅴 1 ½

    This episode is about the weird in-between part of startingover - when you’ve technically “changed your life,” but emotionally you’re still buffering. I talk about moving from Kansas City to Nevada, grieving a life I was bored with, and trying to remember why growth always feels like getting evicted from your comfort zone. This is a love letter to all the moments that feel like failures, betrayals from your old self, and the strange hopeful ones that feel like birth pains. There’s a quiet nod to a certain meerkat midlife crisis -Timon’s whole “I can’t live like this anymore” energy, leaving not because life was bad, but because staying would’ve meant never finding where you fit.

    Brave Enough

    Are you brave enough? This week, I’m sharing what it really feels like to make big, scary moves - when you have no guarantee it’s going to work out. Wondering if courage accepts refunds? Same. In this episode, I talk about moving, money, and the art of pretending you know what you’re doing. Spoiler: choosing your own happiness is messy, risky, and wildly worth it.
