Show Notes
In this episode, I chat with the wonderfully insightful Claire Winter — a journalist turned entrepreneur, content strategist, podcast agency co-founder, and the creative force behind The Creatrix Journey.
Claire's story is one of remarkable reinvention, from her early days at ITN, to running a magazine from her 'shedquarters' with three children under five, to building not one but two businesses rooted in creativity and authentic storytelling!
During our conversation, Claire opens up about her experience of perimenopause and burnout, and how losing her words for a time led her to discover the transformative power of nature, movement, and reconnecting with her own creativity. We also dig into what it really means to stand out in an AI-saturated world. Claire's perspective here is both refreshing and galvanising: your stories, your voice, and your lived experience are your greatest differentiators.
There's so much practical gold here too, from how to overcome the dreaded "visibility hangover" that can follow putting yourself out there, to actionable first steps for anyone feeling reticent about sharing their voice; so keep your notebook to hand!
Enjoy the show!
