Workshops
Nurture a Culture of Care in your Organization
As a community of human beings in relationship with one another, we see the people we care about experience both the highs and the lows of life. Celebrating is easy. Walking beside each other in the hard times can leave us feeling inadequate as a friend or co-worker.  
 
Strengthen your group's ability to care for one another in difficult times by bringing in Clair for a private workshop. With a range of wellness topics and flexible formats, we can craft an experience that will equip your people to confidently support one another in painful experiences.
 
Invest in your people.
Enrich your culture.
Elevate the value of care.

Tears in a Bottle: Stories of Life and Loss

Tears in a Bottle: Stories of Life and Loss, Clair's first book, was published in October 2010.

Excerpt: 

4     Sally

They wonder why I'm not “over it” yet. What in the world do they mean? Do they mean, am I back to normal? Not crying my eyes out, wanting to die? No longer feeling pain? Not talking endlessly about my husband? I'll never get over this. If by getting over it they mean forgetting him, never tearing up at the mention of his name, or falling strangely quiet in a room full of chatting friends, no, I don't think so. No, normal for me would mean getting him back; that will not happen here on earth. So, no, I don't think I'll be getting over it.
