Executive coaching for senior women carrying more responsibility and less room for error.
For Directors, VPs, site heads, partners, founders and owners facing a live leadership pressure.

Are you at capacity?
Are you the Chief Everything Officer, quietly carrying everything in the background? You may be overfunctioning across work, home and everyone else’s needs, with too little space for yourself or your career. This three-minute scorecard will show which areas may need your attention now.
See your result immediately. Midweek Reset emails are optional.
The problem is rarely your capability.
The contribution you need to name.
The work you can no longer carry alone.
The boundary you need to hold.
You can be good at your job and still know the way you are working cannot continue.
You may be carrying a role that has outgrown its title, keeping the team moving, managing family life and giving your remaining time to everyone else. You do not need a perfect plan before you ask for support. We start with what feels most pressing and work out what needs to change first.
We name the pattern, choose one useful tool, practise what you will do or say and review what happens.
The next action has to work under pressure.

Choose the shape that fits.

I was spiraling with my position at our law firm and trying to keep home life all in balance. I wasn’t depressed or anxious, but I knew I needed help with the stress of it all. Claire offered a 12 week course that met once a week. I literally teared up when I approached her and said “I need this!” After the first day, she already gave us all tools on how to reset our thought process. It wasn’t an overnight miracle. We had a little homework but it was all for our own growth. I dove in!
Meeting other women with same pressures and challenges was also a blessing. I wasn’t alone. I’m not a group therapy kind of person, but this all felt different. Focused help on what we needed. Claire also checked in every Monday and Friday and at the end of the 12 weeks, she offered continued support until I was like “I got this” and didn’t need to continue.
If you are a woman needing executive help, I would 100% recommend Claire! Life is still crazy, but using her tools and teachings keep me balanced and focused even to this day.

Claire has done two workshops and individual sessions with the team in Ireland. Before the first workshop, my ambition was that we would set personal and professional goals and work on that. Claire did that with us and more: she managed to get us working together as a team and focus on our strengths. I think this is what is unique with Claire: her sporting and teaching background allows her to bring out the best in people and work together as a team. I would highly recommend her and wish her continued success.

I sought out Claire to deliver a Performance and Leadership workshop for an elite female intercounty team. As a coach, I wanted an external, experienced voice to facilitate a ‘Reflect & Reset’ session focused on goal setting mid-season. Claire’s preparation was exceptional. She conducted pre-workshop evaluations with each player to tailor her approach. She effectively addressed accountability and goal setting, helping the team refocus on the three key performance objectives we set out at the start of the year.
Claire truly understood the unique challenges female athletes face, including balancing life outside of sport, and her coaching methods provided the springboard we needed to push forward. Her workshop came at just the right time, and it made a real impact on our team and girls personally. Would highly recommend Claire for any group looking to achieve a collective goal, sport or otherwise.

Claire is genuine, relatable, encouraging, and positive, but also direct when needed. I would absolutely recommend her to any woman who feels like she’s constantly doing all the things and could use a little help finding more clarity, confidence, and balance. Claire truly understands how hard it can be to juggle career, family, responsibilities, and everything else life throws at you, while somehow still trying to make time for yourself. She has a wonderful way of asking the right questions, helping you look at things from a different perspective, and giving you practical tools you can actually use in everyday life.

From teaching emotional intelligence to focusing on individual strengths to contribute to the team, Claire’s coaching sessions are a ‘Tour de Force’. She gave our company direction and was crucial kick-starting our corporate culture, discovering strengths we didn’t even know we had! Can’t recommend highly enough if your company is in need of ‘Group Therapy’!

Claire O’Connor is one of the most inspiring, authentic, and impactful speakers I’ve ever had the privilege of hearing. She takes that high functioning, female entrepreneur, and helps them reach their full potential!
She has an incredible gift for connecting with people, making every person in the room feel seen, understood, and capable of more than they imagined.
Her message is practical, empowering, and delivered with genuine passion. Claire doesn’t just motivate you in the moment, she gives you tools and a new perspective that stay with you long after she’s finished speaking. Her warmth, wisdom, and authenticity are truly remarkable.
If you ever have the opportunity to hear Claire speak or work with her, don’t hesitate. She is a true leader who inspires others to become the very best version of themselves. Highly recommend!
Practical support from someone who has been there.
Twenty-one years in elite sport and more than two decades in education inform Claire's practical approach.
