Love all of this, Claire, especially your vulnerability in sharing your journey and what you see ahead. The fear is real--I feel it all of the time too--and appreciate the honesty in your post.
Ok, first of all - I LOVE the sections of your newsletter. So smart and fun! And second of all - I am SO grateful I've been able to be part of your journey. Can't wait to share your story more on the Hungry Authors podcast next week!
What a compliment, thank you! I had fun trying to tie everything back to the Diving Board/water theme. And I had an amazing graphic designer help me with all the visuals. https://giuliapink.com/ And yessssss......I'm excited for the podcast next week!
AAAaaand you're off! Woo hoo! Such a great newsletter. The line that made me stop dead and tear up was, "Accept that you will never not be afraid." So profound. So true. So helpful to just lean into that acceptance... and do it anyway. Thank you for putting your heart, your soul out there for the world. It's better because of it.
So very good, Claire! Happy to be a subscriber! Love the water theme! Thank you for the quote on war. I needed that. Also Finley and I are fellow Swifties-Folklore and Speak Now for me, Fearless for her. Excited for future emails as you keep growing and moving forward!
Loved this! And so relatable! I feel like Iโm on a similar path but still early on in the process. The Career Shift Strategy deck was intriguing... might be giving that a try.
And BTW - fellow Swiftie here, and Style all the way! ๐ถ
I love that Style is a favorite for you, Denise! I can't get enough of that song...it's just so sexy and cool and chill and makes me feel like I am, too. ;) If you want my full Career Strategy deck for inspiration shoot me an email at claire@goingindepth.com and I'm happy to send it. I'd love set up time to connect, too, and hear where you are on your journey!
On the Shallow Dive: Some people hate them, some people love them. I try the Wordle and Connections puzzles when I can, but Wordle is so hit-or-miss. I prefer Squareword, which is a little more strategic. Itโs like looking for the answers to the top-right part of a 5x5 crossword.

Also LOVE the Pack Up & Go--how fun!
Congrats on #1, Claire. Your writing is thoughtful, beautiful and inspiring.
I so appreciate this, Zaar! Glad you're here!
