ABOUT

I’m Clare

life coach, menopausal graduate and woman on a mission to help you find your spark (usually involving a bit of swearing!).

HELLO LOVELY!

I’m a life coach and believer in magic, here to help you find your spark, your voice, and a bit of peace.

I’ve run Knit and Knatter groups for years, and that’s the feeling I want to bring to as many women as possible - that you’re not alone, other women are going through it too, and that there’s a safe space to talk, laugh, vent, and feel supported.

I’m a mum of three (plus four inherited, thank you second marriage), dog lover, bread-baking obsessive and occasional guerrilla knitter.

I live in the English countryside with my husband and two very spoiled dogs.

I love swimming in open water, singing, crocheting when the mood takes me, and I've run a CIC which saved 1,000 tonnes of surplus food from landfill.

I’m post-menopausal and still learning to navigate brain fog, fatigue and being cross!

I’ve been through divorce (my parents’ and my own), burnout, loss, rediscovery and, well… here we are

In 2017, a single hypnotherapy session changed everything. I began responding differently; standing up for myself, saying the thing I never thought I could: this isn’t good enough. It led to the end of my marriage and the beginning of everything new. I didn’t have a clue what I was doing. What helped me through it was my circle of women. I could feel their energy at my back when I left my marriage; it was palpable.

I want to create the kind of space for you.

If you’re standing in that place - lost, exhausted, unsure where to even start - I've been there.

I think the world is full of magic! I’ve always lived somewhere between the practical and the mystical. I learnt Shiatsu massage in my 20s, Reiki and energy healing in my 30s, and later trained as a shamanic practitioner. Shamanic belief says everything is alive and our role is to bring it into balance. Science is finally catching up; quantum physics and neuroscience now show how positive thought and self-talk can literally rewire the brain.

I have a toolkit of energetic exercises and healing techniques to shift what's stuck

That’s why I created The Midlife Edit. It's a community for women navigating the space between endings and beginnings.

A place to talk about what’s next now that you’ve got all this experience behind you.

Who you are now. What you want.

And how to begin again. To know you're not alone.

It’s a space where we laugh, swear, cry, and learn together.

I’m still figuring things out - still learning to rest, still battling that inner critic who tells me I should be doing more.

What my clients say about me

★ ★ ★ ★ ★

Usually when I’m on my own or having a cigarette on my own outside or not busy, I contemplate and that’s when all my sad thoughts and bad feelings about myself usually manifest. Now it’s like those bad thoughts about myself have been replaced by the bees that I could hear when I was with you and that’s what comes straight into my mind. Honestly, it’s like a miracle.’

From our very first session, Clare created a safe and welcoming space where I could share my thoughts and feelings without fear of judgement. She truly listened to me and helped me to identify patterns in my thinking and behaviour that were holding me back. Through her compassionate and insightful guidance, I have learned so much about myself and have developed tools and strategies to navigate life's challenges. I feel more confident and empowered, and I am so grateful to have had her as my therapist.

Clare is a magician! I have had 2 sessions with her and I am addicted!!! Why do people need to see a life coach?for me it was Direction, Focus, confidence in my potential, what's holding me back, letting go of negative thoughts, exploring new exciting directions going forward and somehow she wave s a magic wand and creates magic.
