Claire Moffat

Coach and Author in Lane Cove Sydney NSW, Australia

Claire Moffat helps women over 50 move forward after redundancy, career disruption or an unexpected change of direction.

Her Phoenix Coaching Program is a structured, highly personal 12-month process for women who want to regain clarity, rebuild confidence and turn their experience into meaningful action. It begins with an intensive goal-setting and strategic-planning session, followed by monthly one-to-one coaching, practical action steps and supportive accountability.

Claire’s approach is thoughtful, strategic and grounded in lived experience. She understands that losing a role later in life can affect far more than income: it can unsettle identity, confidence and a woman’s sense of what is still possible. Her coaching helps clients recognise the value of what they already know, identify realistic opportunities and create a purposeful path forward.

Before becoming a coach and author, Claire built an extraordinary career spanning more than four decades. She began as an investigative journalist with The National Times before becoming Australia’s first female Group Business Publisher at The Yaffa Group. She later founded and managed pioneering media businesses, including ConnectedAustralia and ConnectedWomen, and became an international conference speaker on women, business and technology.

Claire is also the author of The Phoenix Project: A Career Change Playbook for Women Over 50, and writes a regular newsletter about reinvention, ageism, meaningful work and income beyond the traditional nine-to-five.

What clients say about me
I worked with Claire throughout 2018 and I learned how to set goals that are in alignment with my values and dreams which I then proceeded to try to take action towards. Claire kept me accountable and on the path I wanted to go. Claire brings a depth of experience, warmth and compassion to her coaching style. She gently but firmly guided me to the next action I needed to take. I found the monthly sessions insightful and very much looked forward to my meetings with Claire.”
Sharon McKinney
I always enjoy my sessions with Claire. She’s very insightful and can explain things that I sort of knew but couldn’t articulate. She picks up negative traits that I didn’t realise were negative. She’s honest. "
Susie O’Sullivan
"Claire provided the roadmap and encouragement to allow me to get out of my 'comfort zone' to speak up within my industry through utilising social media, traditional print media and even television! Within a year I was blogging for Women’s Network Australia with 20,000 members, was an expert commentator on SBS World News on trademarks and was even quoted in a Sydney Morning Herald article."
