How Do I Cultivate Hope Over Despair? With Rami Nashashibi

Revisiting How Does It Feel to Be Vulnerable in Front of the World? With Lena Dunham
Putting yourself out there — the good, the bad, the ugly — in the social media age can be a high-risk, high-reward endeavor, to put it mildly. Few people know that quite as well as writer, director, producer, and actor Lena Dunham. Lena shot to superstardom at only 24 years old when her hit HBO show “Girls” debuted in 2012 and has been living her life very much in the public eye ever since. Lena tells Claire about her lifelong love of self-expression and creativity, how being so open about the hard things in her life actually helps her heal, and how her relationship with womanhood, grief, and loss intersects with her writing. Plus, Lena and Claire discuss how early experiences shaped their views on Roe v. Wade.

Revisiting How Do I Manage My Anxiety? With Kelsey Darragh
There’s no way to have gotten through the last few years without some anxiety. But comedian and mental health advocate Kelsey Darragh has been experiencing anxiety-induced panic attacks for as long as she can remember. In the years since, she’s tried it all – therapy, medication, treating the physical symptoms caused by her anxiety – she shares her hard-won knowledge of what works to help her manage her anxiety, panic disorder, and depression. This episode is about slowing down, being realistic about what you can and can’t control, and how to create routines for yourself that bring a sense of calm and independence to your life.

Revisiting How to Forgive an A**hole with Nadia Bolz-Weber

Customer Reviews
Nice stories
Enjoying this podcast so much
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????
