The Clarity Lens Podcast
Conversations that bring clarity to complex decisions
Beyond the Label
What happens when the world starts seeing you through a label — but you refuse to let that label define you? Laura sits down with Brandon Parkes, aka Professor Parkes, for a conversation about life after becoming disabled, navigating life from a wheelchair, and finding purpose in the unexpected. Through humor, gaming, advocacy, and community, he reminds us that a diagnosis or a circumstance is only one part of someone's story.
The Part Nobody Saw
In this deeply personal bonus episode, Laura shares a part of her story she has kept private for a long time — surviving an abusive relationship, the fear and isolation that came with it, and what it took to find her way out. Released during Suicide Prevention Awareness Month, this is a raw, honest conversation about trauma, grief, and rebuilding. Listener discretion is strongly advised.
Make Room for the Full Version of You
What happens when you stop shrinking yourself to fit the version of you everyone else has come to expect? In the final episode of the mini-series, Renée and Laura talk about making room for the parts of you that are still growing, healing, learning, and becoming — and letting go of the expectations, roles, and limitations that once felt necessary.
You Don't Have To Become Less Of Yourself To Move Forward
Laura and Renée explore what happens when belonging starts to look like shrinking — from masking and perfectionism to people-pleasing and the pressure to constantly prove ourselves — and unpack the difference between adapting to an environment and losing yourself inside of it. Because success doesn't have to mean becoming someone else.

The Clarity Sessions: Sometimes the Problem Isn't You
What if the things you criticize yourself for are actually things you learned to do really well? A reflection on behavior as adaptation — and why the better question isn't "What's wrong with me?" but "What happened that made this behavior make sense?"
The Clarity Sessions: When Rest Feels Like Failure
When you have spent years operating through anticipation, a calm moment does not necessarily feel peaceful. A reflection on why rest can feel like failure — and on learning to trust your own judgment after it has been quietly dismantled.
The Clarity Sessions: You Are Not Behind, You Are Becoming
What if the timeline was never the point? A reflection on releasing the schedule we never officially agreed to — and becoming who we are uniquely called to be.
The Clarity Sessions
The second session in the series — what criminology taught me about being human, and why financial decisions are rarely just financial decisions. Numbers tell part of the story; people tell the rest.
