Claire

Facilitator & Coach
"It's never too late to be what you might have been."
George Eliot
Claire O’Connor
knows that part of the cure to the “pathological individualism” rampant in our culture is to let others in
on your dreams and to surround yourself with the right tribe and she wants to spread the word. With the "right
tribe", we can help grow each other into our next-biggest, best selves.
Fueled by the joy of seeing people fully supported
and fully engaged with their lives in the spirit of possibility and celebration, Claire shares her gifts --
as a natural connnector with a way of drawing people together -- and as a healing, compassionate presence
which evokes authenticity in those with whom she works.
A delightfully down-to-earth, warm and engaging coach and workshop leader,
Claire O’Connor connects with a bright, open energy which invites people to feel safe and at home no matter the setting.
Clients and workshop participants feel at ease and inspired at the same time.
As an experienced, intuitive facilitator, Claire
has the ability to light-heartedly yet masterfully focus group energy, while staying tuned in to each person.
Her background includes a degree in Holistic Human Development and Counseling Psychology and over 20 years’
experience as a group facilitator for various groups, teams and guilds whose membership has included women-in-transition,
women entrepreneurs, new empty-nesters, career-changers, healing arts practitioners, environmental educators, middle-schoolers
and college freshmen. Claire is a Body-Mind Vibrance and
Conscious Relationship Coach, certified by the Hendricks Institute for Conscious Living. She also participated in their advanced Leadership and Transformation Program.

Claire says...
 "My own idea of an enchanted life is when everyday feels like being a kid on summer vacation. I love that
I get to wake up every morning to the adventure of life, that I get to express my creativity in so many different ways - and
make a living doing it, and that I get to share it all with other amazing people who are on a similar path.
Add to that, for me heaven-on-earth is puttering and loving with my sweetest-kindest man Ken Plattner at our cozy adobe abode "Casa Encantada", in gorgeous Tucson, Arizona. You can usually find us expressing
our creativity in the yard with plants and stone. Or traveling to distant lands in search of the most beautiful stone
walls. Or lolling about in and around the pool, savoring a glass of wine over yummy food and great conversation with
friends, our darling chocolate lab, Roxy, sprawling underfoot. (See photo below).
Come join me! Let's play our way in to our 'enchanted
lives'."
