Curious Claire
I’m a 52-year-old mom of two kids with a full-time job and a dream of creating a community for midlife women to thrive.
​
I live in the Toronto area with my husband Darren, two kids and two dogs. My daughter is in her second year university, and lives about an hour away. My son is in grade eight and loves to play hockey and tumble.
​
We have two dogs named Skipper and Bailey. They are both boxers, and we love them madly. I also recently fell in love with a horse named Solo, so he's part of our family now, too.
I’m blessed to be close to my extended family on both sides, and I have the best friends a girl can ask for.
​
During the day, I’m a self-proclaimed payments geek, and work at Visa. When I’m not with my family and friends, you will probably find me traveling or at our cottage, where I love to garden, unwind and enjoy a cocktail on the dock.

Sisters: Claire & Amanda
I have an older sister named Amanda. I like to think of us as the yin and yang of Midlifecurious. Amanda is quiet, thoughtful, helpful and smart. I’m loud, expressive, directive and witty. We work together beautifully, and often, you will see us laughing so hard that we almost wet our pants.
​
In 2018, after many years of musing and dreaming, I convinced Amanda to join the Midlifecurious mission. She's in charge of everything technical and tries to keep me in line and focussed. That's a challenging task for anyone, including myself.
So while I may be the face of Midlifecurious, nothing really gets done without Amanda. She’s the photographer, the data analyst, the planner, the butt kicker, and the person who makes me use a project management software that I HATE.
Midlifecurious
Midlifecurious started as a place to share information through blog posts. It has expanded to include various social media platforms such as Instagram, TikTok, Facebook and Pinterest.
We strive to be a trusted advisor providing interesting, informative, inspirational, and enlightening content.
​
Midlifecurious is also a community where we support each other, laugh at ourselves, and inspire one another.
​
We have big plans for Midlifecurious, so join us for the ride.
Midlife Missive
Midlife Missive is a weekly newsletter delivered to your email every Sunday morning. It is a curation of articles that I choose to enlighten, inspire and entertain you every week.
It is specifically tailored for midlife women and includes content ranging from health and wellness to skincare and beauty. Sometimes, I include articles on personal development and sexuality. Other times, I have articles with funny memes or educational TED Talks.
