Claire & Her Clients

With a degree and 20-year career in Corporate Communications Claire chose to qualify with the Beautiful You Coaching Academy as a Life Coach in 2021, after a year of self-enquiry and development during the Covid-19 Pandemic.

Claire’s main motivation in becoming a life coach was her realisation of the lack of support for women in a society that breezily tells them that they can ‘do it all’, whilst systems and attitudes are still working against them. She was motivated by her own journey and challenges in navigating motherhood and livelihood. She uses a feelings-based model of coaching in her work with clients, most often women who are finding themselves overextended and facing burnout due to competing family and work commitments. They are women looking to rediscover their own needs and wants after seeking external validation for so long that they no longer feel true to themselves. A recovered people-pleaser herself, Claire is keen to help women who are experiencing yet another shift in their identity since early motherhood and now face the realisation of their disconnection from self. She guides and supports them to set and achieve goals that will have them embracing the next chapter of their lives feeling full of purpose, positivity and potential.

My training with Beautiful You Coaching Academy

I was called to this course and this course was called to me. It popped up in response to my online search for Life Coaching at a time when I felt lost, and confused about where I was taking myself. Five people had told me at varying points in my life that I would make a great coach. It hadn’t felt like an option before because of all the rationale that crowded in concerning the career I had built, and of course, what other people would think. But I was done with that. I knew I had to start listening to myself and honouring myself, and working towards a vision for me. I watched the video for the course, which lit my soul. This was ‘feelings-based’ coaching with an emphasis on feminine energy, and helping people to realise their true self, needs and desires. I listened to a talk by the Lead Trainer Julie Parker – who had me at ‘Hello’.  I knew then that some things are just meant to be – and that this – was meant for me.
