Award Sweep & Mom's Weep

Summer Update

Tell me everything! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2605658/fan_mail/new] A quick check-in to say… summer is doing the absolute most and also not.  Between life, schedules, and everything in between, episodes may be a little more sporadic over the next couple of months. But don’t you worry...Claire Bare isn’t going anywhere.  Regularly scheduled programming will be back in full force this August. Just "BARE" with me during the summer. Until then, expect a little chaos, a little inconsistency, and the same unfiltered honesty, just on a slightly looser timeline. If you have some downtime this summer and want to be featured on a bonus episode. Reach out and let's get you in the chair with Claire!  Now go get BARE and enjoy the sweet summa of fun!  Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2605658/support] https://www.instagram.com/theclairebare [https://www.instagram.com/theclairebare] https://www.youtube.com/@theclairebare [https://www.youtube.com/@theclairebare] https://www.tiktok.com/@theclairebare [https://www.tiktok.com/@theclairebare] Thank you for getting BARE with Claire!

Award Sweep & Mom's Weep

Tell me everything! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2605658/fan_mail/new] In this episode, Claire dives into the end-of-year chaos. Emotions are high, calendars are full, and somehow… everyone’s getting an award. From current trends and observations to navigating the bittersweet (and slightly humbling) experience of watching her son absolutely thrive, Claire unpacks the unexpected feelings that come with it...including a little jealousy she wasn’t exactly prepared for. She also looks back on her own childhood, revisiting the infamous “scary” fourth-grade teacher and what it actually meant to experience her firsthand. Finding out she has always been different. It’s honest, self-aware, and a reminder that sometimes the things we fear (or compare ourselves to) aren’t the full story.  Support the show [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2605658/support] https://www.instagram.com/theclairebare [https://www.instagram.com/theclairebare] https://www.youtube.com/@theclairebare [https://www.youtube.com/@theclairebare] https://www.tiktok.com/@theclairebare [https://www.tiktok.com/@theclairebare] Thank you for getting BARE with Claire!

Repeat Episode Lying Daisy

Tell me everything! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2605658/fan_mail/new] Re-sharing this episode because it’s one of those stories that just hits—early signs of perfectionism, chaos, and a few questionable childhood decisions. If you’re new here, welcome. If you’ve heard it before… it might hit differently this time. Taking some time to focus on MAY-HEM! Will be back next week with a banger!

Don't Lean on Me Episode 7

Tell me everything! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2605658/fan_mail/new] In this episode, Claire takes us into her third-grade era—where the days were structured, the lunches were questionable, and the life lessons… came from unexpected places. From listening to violin practice tapes (whether she wanted to or not) to navigating the social dynamics of school lunch and what it meant to “fit in,” this chapter of childhood is equal parts ordinary and oddly formative. And then—because this is Claire Bare—we take a slight turn into a field trip with her dad that lands somewhere you wouldn’t typically find on a third-grade itinerary. It’s nostalgic, a little chaotic, and a reminder that even the most random moments somehow stick with us.

A Possession Confession Episode 6

Tell me everything! [https://www.buzzsprout.com/2605658/fan_mail/new] What starts as a reflection on anxiety, healing, and “cleaning out the internal closet” quickly spirals into a series of childhood events that raise some very real questions. Mainly, was she an overactive kid, slightly unhinged, or fully possessed? From chickenpox and mysterious hives to puncturing holes in a waterbed for absolutely no reason, navigating girl gang dynamics, recess weddings, and writing spelling words backwards...this episode is equal parts hilarious, chaotic, and deeply self-aware, but you should listen at your own risk. Add in a possible bathroom hex, an early baptism, and a therapist who requested a horse drawing… and you’ve got a story that could go in multiple directions. Spiritual warfare? Undiagnosed ADHD? Just being eight? We may never know. But we are absolutely going to laugh about it.
