About Claire

Hey I’m Claire and can I let you in on a secret?

Cool.

I find writing about me almost impossible.

I think it is that feeling of standing up and shouting from the rooftops hey look at me I am so amazing and look I have done all this neat stuff so I must be awesome, right?!

You know… I nourish women to sensational living, to evoke the senses to develop a love affair with their body, their lives and their food, I enable women to step out as the star of their life.

Which all means in plain old English – I make you love you, eat great food and stop hiding your talent.

So surely that should mean it would be easy for me to yell look at me!

Well, I can tell you I am a show off… I love to be on stage whether that is giving talks, workshops or dancing.

Through my business – The Raw Bombshell – I worked with hundreds of women and absolutely loved it.  But, I felt I was hiding behind a mask, behind the facade of The Raw Bombshell and so I decided to come out as me, Claire Maguire.  And boy, it feels good.

I love to create courses and programs around food and life which are fun, inspirational and motivational.

I am a passionate foodie – I really adore food and the effect it can have on me.

I talk alot.

I listen very well too.

I have had a diverse working life – from academic research, web content manager for BDSM sites, SEO for luxury yachts, underground punk record label owner, catering to lifestyle coaching.

I am a geek – I have a PhD in Medical Biochemistry from Imperial College, London.

I am a mother with 2 wonderful girls.

I have been told I am rebellious and inspirational.  I like both of those descriptions of me.

I have overcome addictions, break-downs and break-ups, loss of identity and breast cancer.

I really love to laugh.

I adore dressing up, high heels and red lipstick.

I also rock the natural look.

I enjoy a drink or two.

I am not perfect.

I have been featured in the book Raw Food Made Simple by Karen Knowler.

I am a certified raw food coach.

I can be found eating raw chocolate and drinking green juice yet I won’t say no to a piece of quality steak and fries.

I am on a mission to get people off the all or nothing bandwagon around food and diet.

I love nature.

I also love cities.

I am many many things as I am sure you are too.

Let’s celebrate being unique.
