Meet the Member – Claire Watt. – C W Coaching
Name, business name
Claire Watt. – C W Coaching
Tell us about your businesses, the inspiration behind it and when you launched it?
I’m a qualified Personal Trainer helping busy, plus-size women build confidence, feel stronger, and actually stick to a routine that fits their life, not one that takes over it.
I work with women who feel like they’ve tried everything, starting every Monday, stopping by Wednesday, and wondering why nothing ever lasts. Women who don’t feel comfortable in gyms, who think they need to lose weight before they even begin.
That’s exactly why I started my business. Because I’ve been there.
I’m a plus-size woman on my own journey. I’ve lost weight, but I’m still working on myself too, and that’s what makes this different. I don’t coach from a place of perfection. I coach from real life. No extremes. No all-or-nothing. No judgement.
Just support, structure, and a plan you can actually keep up with, even when life’s busy.
This isn’t about starting over again next week.
It’s about finally finding something that sticks.
Best piece of advice you were given at the start of your business journey?
None I was winging it. Kinda still am lol.
What has been your biggest lesson/ challenge faced so far and how did you overcome it?
My biggest challenge is comparison. I see all these Pts online with hundreds of clients that are always smashing it and I start to doubt myself. Then I give my head a wobble and I know that I am doing that for my clients too, I maybe just don’t shout about it as much on social media.
What is your number 1 business tip for success?
Don’t compare yourself to anyone else lol.
What are the big business goals for the next year?
I don’t really have any big goals. My aim is to continue helping as many plus size woman like me as I can to get back into fitness or restart of they have fallen off.
How can the GGC Business membership help?
Community support.
What’s the dream?
Long term possible open a gym in my garage but thats years away.
Fave mantra to get you buzzed up for business!
Consistency over perfection.
Three fun facts about you!
I’d wear my crocs all year round if I could.
According to my friends I say tattle and mince the wrong way round.
Cornwall is my favourite place to be and I will move there one day.
