Our Founders
Raw Horizons Wellbeing Academy was established by Dr Claire Maguire and Andrea Maguire, a step-daughter and step-mother team whose combined expertise brings a fresh perspective to Health and Wellbeing Coach Training. With Claire’s extensive background in wellbeing coaching and Andrea’s wealth of experience in business, they’ve created a program that goes beyond traditional coaching education.
Every aspect of the curriculum has been specifically curated by Claire and Andrea to ensure you receive comprehensive coaching skills, practical business knowledge, and the confidence to make a real difference in people’s lives.
What sets Raw Horizons apart is our commitment to nurturing both your professional development and personal journey. We ensure you graduate not just with certification, but with the practical tools, deep understanding, and genuine confidence needed to thrive as a certified coach.
