“The way I see it is, lead with your feminine, follow with the masculine. So meaning we have to listen to our intuition where a man is like, Oh, I gotta wake up earlier, and it doesn't matter if I feel horrible, I'm gonna ignore the body and I'm gonna go, and if women do that, you will end up with some kind of disease if you love that job, great, but I would just push it to the next level and say, does it align with your values as a woman? Does it feel supportive? And if it doesn't, then it's time to pivot and listen to the intuition..”- Claude Racine

More than merely achieving physical results, however, Claude helps her clientele develop the mental willpower to succeed in every arena of life.
