Getting Started Form

Yay! Friend! I'm so excited! I can't wait to talk to you about your book. Only a few of the questions below are required, so respond to what calls to you. If I need to know more, we'll chat it out in our connection call! Can't wait!

Claire 💛

P.S. Did I tell you I'm excited?

The Required Questions

What is your name?

What is your email address?

What is your phone number (preferably one I can text, just in case)

My pronouns are she/her, what are yours?

This is not a required field, so if you don't care to share your pronouns, no worries.

Please know: Diversity, equality, and inclusivity are foundational values in everything I do. I believe every individual brings a unique voice and perspective to the table, and it is through embracing our differences that we create stronger, more vibrant communities. I am committed to fostering environments where everyone feels seen, heard, and valued, ensuring equal opportunities for all to thrive and succeed. If these values do not resonate with you, it’s likely we are not the right fit to work together.

If you answer with anything other than pronouns, your application will be rejected.
