By audience request, New Day is now moving to 3 times a week! On each episode, we’ll find new ways to make life a little better. So many of us are suffering in silence. Maybe you're successful but miserable at work. Perhaps you have the perfect family on Instagram, but you're at each other's throats IRL. Maybe you can’t even put your finger on what feels weird - but you know you deserve more. Whatever it is, you’re not alone. I’m Claire Bidwell Smith, author, therapist, and grief expert. On Mondays and Wednesdays on New Day, I share easy actions you can implement to make meaningful changes in your life, and also answer your questions. And on Friday, end your week with an interview with an amazing guest who has experienced something difficult in their lives that you can use to help you navigate challenging situations in yours. No one has all the answers. But three days a week, New Day from Lemonada Media is here to help improve your life one episode at a time.

This episode’s practice is about communication, getting your needs met, and building a relationship that works for you AND your partner.

Revisiting How to Forgive an A**hole with Nadia Bolz-Weber
Being a religious leader doesn’t mean you're an expert at practicing forgiveness. Lutheran minister Nadia Bolz-Weber says being in quarantine gave her the ego check she needed to get real about forgiveness and compassion — for herself and others. This episode’s practice is about apologies and circling back to the relationships in your life that could use some mending.

Revisiting How Can I Use My Voice For Social Change? With Brandon Kyle Goodman
The murder of George Floyd was shocking and changed all of us — regardless of our racial identities. For nonbinary activist, actor and writer Brandon Kyle Goodman, it was a moment for them to find their voice. In the wake of George Floyd’s murder, Brandon posted a video on Instagram addressed to their white friends who were reaching out, asking them what they should do. That video went viral, and Brandon continued to use their social media platform to give space for Black trauma AND Black joy, modeling a way for others to express themselves, to learn, to be heard, and to find their voice. This episode's practice is about finding spaces of belonging, and how to use your voice for social change, even when you’re afraid.

Revisiting How Can I Accept My Body and My Fears? With BJ Miller
Thirty years ago, Dr. BJ Miller had an accident that changed his life forever. He was out late one night messing around with his college buddies, jumped up on a train car, and was electrocuted with 11,000 volts of electricity. BJ went on to lose both legs and most of one arm. He spent a year in physical recovery and longer in emotional and psychological recovery. But all of these experiences led him to where he is today: interviewed by Oprah; profiled by “The New York Times Magazine”; and a leading figure in the death and dying realm. This week’s practice is all about accepting our bodies — and our fears. As BJ Miller says, “The goal isn’t to become fearless. The goal is to learn how to live with fear.”

Revisiting How Do I Re-Parent Myself? With Tara Schuster
Waking up to the realization that you drunk-dialed someone the night before can be pretty embarrassing. But for Tara Schuster, it was life changing. The night of her 25th birthday, Tara drunk-dialed her therapist pleading for help. The next morning, she decided to find that help she begged for. Tara tells Claire how she realized she needed to re-parent herself, the techniques she initially scoffed at that proved most helpful for her, and what advice she has for people at the beginning of their own healing journey. Plus, she reveals to Claire what celebrity she uses as her stand-in for an ideal parent.

Customer Reviews
Can’t get enough!
I’m not sure how I found Clare, but I did recently and have binged my way through all the episodes. It’s such an eclectic combination of topics. Episodes are full but not too long so I can always create time to listen. Claire’s professional personal style, based in real life, teams psychological best practices with old school caring. thanks so much Clare for what you share with us.
Short eps are 10 stars
Love love love them. So tactical not the typical unhelpful stuff. Needed this. Like wasn’t sure if it would just be the same woo woo chats but no. It’s all the tips and so helpful. Exactly what I want to be thinking about. How do we hit restart on everything????
