Have You Followed All the Rules, Yet Still Feel Unfulfilled as a Mother?

You’ve done everything that was expected of you – succeeded in life, supported everyone around you, and worked tirelessly to be the best mother you can be. Yet, despite checking all the boxes, something feels off. You feel lost, disconnected from yourself, unsure of your true passions, and stuck in a life that doesn't feel like yours. You’ve followed someone else’s roadmap, but it hasn’t led you to the fulfilment you hoped for.

​

As a mother, it’s easy to put everyone else first, but being a martyr helps no one. The truth is, you are already the mum your children need – but to show up as your best self, you need to put yourself first. When you rediscover who you are – the magic within – life will feel exciting again, and you’ll be equipped to handle anything that comes your way. You’ll be a role model for your children, showing them what it means to live authentically, with confidence and joy.

​

Imagine feeling deeply connected to who you are, trusting yourself, and feeling certain in your choices. When you nurture your own inner magic, life becomes limitless, and you inspire your children to embrace their own potential. It’s time to live with purpose and rediscover the excitement and possibility in your life – not just for you, but for your entire family.

Rediscover Yourself, Transform Your Family Life

I’m Claire Gillespie, a life coach dedicated to helping mothers like you rediscover your inner magic and live with confidence, joy, and purpose. I believe that when you, as a mother, reconnect with who you truly are, it not only transforms your own life but also creates a nurturing, empowering environment where your entire family can thrive.

​

My coaching isn’t about quick fixes or offering parenting tips. Instead, it’s a deeply personal journey of self-discovery, designed to help you rediscover your passions, reconnect with your inner strength, and live authentically. When you put yourself first, you equip yourself to handle life’s challenges with grace and clarity, becoming the role model your children need.

​

As both a coach and a mother who has navigated my own challenges, I understand the unique pressures you face. I’ve combined my personal experience with professional expertise to craft an approach that supports you in breaking free from the expectations and “shoulds” of life. My focus is on helping you live in alignment with your true values, so you can feel fulfilled, confident, and connected to your vision for yourself and your family.

​

Through our work together, you’ll learn that prioritizing your personal growth is not selfish – it’s essential. By embracing your journey, you’ll be able to show up fully for your children, modeling a life of authenticity, self-trust, and joy. This is about creating lasting, positive changes that will impact not only you but also those you love most.

My Journey to Authenticity: Trusting My Own Path

My dreams had come true: I was married with two boys under the age of five, and I had started a business that allowed families to get creative together. On the surface, everything looked perfect. I was playing to my strengths and, although motherhood was more demanding than I had imagined, I thought I was happy.

​

But in 2015, everything began to shift. To the outside world, I seemed successful—running a growing business while raising two young boys. Yet internally, I was struggling. The pressure of balancing entrepreneurship with the kind of mother I wanted to be was overwhelming, and I realized the traditional path wasn’t working for my family. My children weren’t thriving in school, and the constant advice on how to “fix” them left me feeling misunderstood and alone.

​

I reached a breaking point. I felt like I was failing at everything—treading water, with nothing ever feeling good enough. In January 2020, with my energy completely drained and no clear direction, I made a decision that terrified me: I closed my business and removed my children from school. I had no idea how I would manage to home educate two lively boys while feeling so lost and exhausted, but something deep inside told me there had to be a better way. This was the moment I stopped following the rules set by others and began listening to my own inner voice.

​

What came next was a transformative journey. I threw myself into learning, devouring books, podcasts, and self-reflection. I embraced coaching, not just to improve my family’s situation, but to rediscover who I was. I realized that when I trusted myself—when I tapped into my own strengths and intuition—I could create a life that felt true and aligned with who I really was. I learned to listen to my body, trust my instincts, and honour my natural abilities.

​

Taking my children out of school didn’t just free them, it freed me. It lit a fire of courage inside me. For the first time, I stopped trying to meet society’s expectations and began making decisions based on what truly worked for us as a family. I stepped into my intuition and felt empowered by it. I learned that I am the mother my children need—not by following someone else’s roadmap, but by trusting my own.

​

Through this journey, my children became my greatest teachers. They taught me the importance of boundaries, the value of authenticity, and the power of truly listening to myself. I discovered my need for time alone to think, to explore my passions, and to connect with people who challenge and inspire me. I learned to set priorities based on what fuels me—whether it’s engaging in meaningful conversations, testing my abilities, or simply learning new things.

​

This personal transformation not only changed my life but also had a profound impact on my family. We all began to thrive when I stepped into my true self, no longer conforming to the world’s expectations but creating a life that celebrates our uniqueness. I learned that the world doesn’t need us to fit in—it needs us to stand out and sparkle, to be the best versions of our truest selves.

​

Now, as a life coach, I’m passionate about helping other mothers find that same courage. I combine my background in helping families connect through creativity with the vital skills of self-discovery and empowerment. My mission is to support parents in trusting themselves, rediscovering their magic within, and creating a life where they—and their families—can truly thrive.

​

You only get one life, and you have the power to shape it. Discovering what worked for me changed everything. It gave me the roadmap to a more authentic life—one where I could flourish and help those around me do the same. Now, I’m here to help you do the same: step into your intuition, embrace your strengths, and live the life that feels right for you.
