Don’t Just Endure Your Life

Choose It

It is easy to feel like life is just happening to you—deadlines, expectations, and demands pulling you in every direction.

Deliberate Identity is the practice of pausing, realigning, and choosing to show up as the person you intend to be. When you do that, you don't just change your day; you change your life.

Services

Pathways to reclaiming your agency. Whether you are an executive in transition or seeking a quick pivot, these programs are designed to move you from default to deliberate.

One-on-One Executive Coaching

Personalized confidential coaching sessions focused on helping you clarify your deliberate identity, navigate specific challenges, enhance your skills and build lasting confidence and agency.

Executive Transition Coaching

A specialized program designed for leaders stepping into new or expanded roles, designed to help you consciously decide who you want to be in this new role, rather than letting the pressure define you. Establish your authentic presence by choice, not chance.

Values & Intention Intensive

A more focused, short term program specifically dedicated to helping you identify your core values and practice the skill of translating those values directly into deliberate choices and behaviors in your daily work. This results in a rapid impact on your agency and confidence in specific situations.

About

Inspired by my own transformative journey, which profoundly shifted my perspective and sense of agency, I founded Deliberate Identity Coaching to prove that you don't have to be a passenger in your own life. My mission is to help you see that how you show up is a decision—and when you make that decision deliberately, you stop feeling subjected to your circumstances and start shaping them.

Through this process, clients build lasting confidence by deliberately choosing how to show up, enabling them to become the authentic, reliable leaders who inspire high-performing teams and navigate complex organizations effectively.

Testimonials

  • Claire is the most inspiring coach I've ever had, due to her ability to ask the right questions to allow me to reach my own conclusions. She is adept at taking a step back to really see the full picture, then encouraging me to do similarly to be able to figure out novel ideas and insights. Her empathy and positivity naturally establishes rapport to be able to discuss the most delicate situations. Our conversations are either unstructured or Claire brings exercises to lead deeper into topics, and both approaches are very effective at building my confidence, leadership abilities, and figure out new ideas to unstick my teams.

  • I highly recommend Claire and her professional development techniques. I am lucky to have worked with Claire in her professional coaching program. Claire tailored her guidance to the things I needed, providing me a framework to identify and work on overcoming challenges I faced that were holding me back professionally. This type of development can be very uncomfortable because doing it well requires really searching inside and being transparent, but Claire brought an empathy and peace to our sessions that left me both excited to be working with her and relieved to have a sympathetic and strong voice pushing me forward. Claire's sessions helped me become a calmer leader and more strategic thinker, and I look back with gratitude at the time she spent helping me develop.
