Holistic Business Mentor, Coach and Trainer, Solution-Focused Hypnotherapist
Hi, I’m Clare founder of The Hive Holistic Hub.
I’ve spent the last 16 years building several of my own successful businesses, as well as running a successful hypnotherapy practice for several years before moving to Spain.
So I know what it’s like to start something from scratch, figure things out as you go and build a business around something you genuinely care about.
​
From the UK to Spain
When I moved to Spain, I thought I was leaving hypnotherapy behind.
After all, who could possibly be stressed in the sunshine?
But it didn’t take long to realise that stress, anxiety and self-doubt don’t just disappear with a change of scenery. Wherever you go, your mind comes with you.
So although I’d moved to Spain, my experience as a hypnotherapist was still very much part of me.
At the same time, I was continuing to work with business owners back in the UK. I’d started doing this before moving to Spain, helping with websites and marketing, and during our regular meetings I naturally found myself motivating, coaching and helping them work through their business challenges too.
I hadn’t set out to become a business mentor.
It just happened naturally.
​
Then came The Hive
Inspired by my experience as a therapist and my love of helping people, I opened The Hive Holistic Hub in Spain, a space for the local holistic community to rest, reset and reconnect through therapies, classes and workshops.
Opening the physical Hive was a three-year mission.
It was a long road, with many obstacles along the way, but I was determined to make it happen and I never gave up.
And while I was trying to grow The Hive, I realised there was something I couldn’t ignore anymore.
My true purpose.
I had spent years building businesses. I had been a successful therapist. I had helped other business owners. And I had developed a natural ability to see what people needed, help them find clarity and turn their ideas into something real.
I realised that this was something I wanted to do much more of.
​
Why The Hive exists
I deeply understand the challenge of going from being a therapist to being a business owner.
You trained to help people.
You probably didn't train to understand branding, websites, marketing, social media, business strategy, pricing, content or everything else that suddenly lands on your plate when you decide to work for yourself.
I know how different that mindset can be, because I’ve been there myself.
But I also know it’s possible to build a successful business around what you love doing.
You don't need to become an expert in everything.
You need the right support, practical guidance and someone who understands both sides.
That’s what The Hive is here for.
​
What I do
I help newly qualified and growing therapists and practitioners brand, build and grow their businesses with confidence through:
Coaching & mentoring
For when you need clarity, direction, strategy or someone in your corner.
Practical training
For when you want to understand what you need to do and learn how to do it yourself.
Done-for-you support
For when you'd rather hand over things like your website, social media or marketing and let me take care of them.
Solution-Focused Hypnotherapy
For when confidence, self-doubt, stress or overwhelm are getting in the way of moving forward.
​
The Hive today
The physical Hive may have closed, but the heart of it is still here.
The Hive is now completely online, a place where therapists and practitioners can find the support, knowledge and practical help they need to build something they're proud of.
I believe in collaboration over competition, and I want The Hive to be a place where holistic practitioners can flourish, together.
​
Learn it. Do it with me. Or let me do it for you.
That’s The Hive.
