Claire Harrison Leadership Coach

Conscious Leadership.

Inner Leadership for people navigating change.

A steadier way of living and working — grounded in clarity, presence, and self-trust.

If you’re ready for work that supports your wellbeing rather than drains it, you’re in the right place.

I support people in transition through 1:1 inner leadership companionship and small, steady group spaces rooted in mindfulness, reflection, and practical next steps.

Work with Me

How I work.

My work is grounded, thoughtful, and deeply relational. I offer a calm, steady space to pause and think things through — especially in moments of uncertainty, transition, or quiet questioning.

I don’t rush insight or push for answers. Instead, we slow things down enough for clarity to emerge, for self-trust to return, and for decisions to be made with care rather than pressure.

While the pace of this work is gentle, it’s not passive. It supports meaningful movement forward — shaped from within, aligned with what matters, and sustainable over time.

Who this work is for.

Many people arrive here at a turning point.

This work is for people who have built full, capable lives - and who now find themselves at a threshold.

They’ve succeeded within established systems, yet feel the quiet pull toward something more aligned, spacious, and self-directed. The old models no longer make sense. Speed feels less important than clarity. Being led from the inside feels like the next evolution.

They’re not seeking reinvention for its own sake.
They’re shaping what comes next with care.

The Transition.

This is a moment of evolution — not a problem to solve.

Many people arrive here after years of leading, building, and delivering — inside organisations, communities, or their own work. From the outside, things may look successful. On the inside, something is shifting.

What’s emerging is a desire to work and live differently.

To lead with:

  • Greater clarity.

  • Stronger self-trust.

  • More intentional decision-making.

  • Systems that support life, rather than consume it.

For some, this transition involves stepping away from established structures.
For others, it means reshaping work that no longer feels aligned.

In both cases, the movement is the same:
a shift from externally driven definitions of success toward a more self-led, sustainable way of living and working.

With steadiness and support, this can become a spacious chapter, one marked by clarity, integrity, and a deeper sense of alignment.

This is the work I support people with.

WAYS TO WORK TOGETHER

    1:1 Leadership Support

    I work one-to-one with people navigating periods of change — offering steady companionship, thoughtful reflection, and practical support as you listen more closely to what matters and shape what comes next.

    This work is relational, unhurried, and grounded in inner leadership rather than external pressure or performance.

    Community Practice

    I host small, ongoing circles for shared reflection and practice.

    These spaces offer:

    Mindfulness and contemplative practice

    Thoughtful inquiry

    The experience of being witnessed and supported in community with others

    The Circle is a place to slow down, reconnect, and practise living and leading from within, alongside others walking a similar path.

    Writing & Reflection

    My writing lives primarily through The Inner Self — a slow Sunday letter exploring inner leadership, transition, and living with care in uncertain times.

    For many people, this is a gentle place to begin.

Claire Harrison Inner Leadership

My Approach.

My work is integrative and human-centred, shaped by the understanding that our lives, work, and inner worlds are deeply interconnected.

Rather than isolating problems or rushing toward solutions, we take a wider view — noticing how systems, habits, identities, and expectations shape the way you live and lead. From there, we slow the pace enough for clarity to emerge and for choices to be made from a more grounded inner centre.

This work is guided by:

  • Attention to the inner life, not just external outcomes.

  • Calm, thoughtful reflection rather than urgency.

  • Practical support that feels doable and sustaining.

  • An understanding of leadership as something lived, not performed

The aim is not optimisation or reinvention for its own sake, but alignment; shaping work and ways of living that support your energy, values, and wellbeing over time.

This is a steady, relational approach that honours the depth of transition and supports you as you move into a more self-led chapter.

About Me

I’ve spent many years working inside complex systems, in senior leadership roles across media, technology, and transformation, and later building my own business.

I know the internal logic of achievement, momentum, and success. I also know what it takes to step out of those frameworks with clarity, steadiness, and self-trust.

Over time, my work has moved beneath performance and strategy, toward the quieter work of inner leadership — supporting people to slow down, listen more closely to themselves, and make choices that feel true and sustainable.

I offer a calm, thoughtful presence to those navigating transition - people who sense that the old ways no longer fit and want to shape what comes next with care.

If you find yourself standing at the edge of a new chapter, you’re welcome here.
