100 women of 2024
I am so honoured to be included in this list of pushing forward, paving the way, brave, intelligent, witty warrior women.
I always feel a rush to explain
Well, I’m not freediving much at the moment. You see, there are other projects…
But if you've heard any of my talks, you know my story might be about freediving but my message isn't. It's about being a little bit brave (and little bit more vulnerable) and oh-so-curiously exploring what you're really capable of doing.
2024 talks kicked off with First Fortnight and It Takes A Village, two fantastic organisations committed to positive well-being and mental health awareness. March and International Women’s Day has me visiting companies such as Workday, Embecta, CNAM, Greenhouse and SAP, covering a range of topics including self-esteem, inclusion, resilience and reproductive health.
To hear more about topics I cover or for any speaking enquiries, get in touch.
Under Water
Shortlisted for An Post Sport Book of the Year, Claire’s bestselling, debut book was published in March 2023.
Claire spent her twenties living the life she thought she was supposed to live. Aged 32, single and living with her parents, she decided it was time to chart her own path. Booking a flight to South America, she let go of ‘at home Claire’ and opened herself up to a new world of possibilities.
It was here she discovered freediving. At 60 metres below the surface, Claire discovered a fresh perspective that transformed her life and helped her find freedom. Under Water is Claire’s candid and captivating story of how holding her breath taught her to live.
