Hello stars.
I'm Claire.
By trade, I'm a Registered Nurse seeking to care for whole people. I see through a lens of care for individuals and communities.
By art, I am a dancer, writer and the host of the podcast what the hell is up.
I strive to ask myself and others what the hell is up while staying rooted in my original purpose and creative self.
I am obsessed with local music and art. I want to carefully listen to what you are making.
I feature music that I hear around me from Seattle, Los Angeles and elsewhere.
I believe that sound has the power to connect, inspire and hold us through loneliness, darkness, celebration, and healing. Sound can be a conduit of care. Listening well is an act of care. This is what the hell is up.
