Hi! Thanks for visiting my website. I’m Claire, a Filipina American, first generation college graduate and former community college president. I am dedicated to uplifting our community and women of color leaders to reclaim power, lead with clarity, and build lasting legacies.

Leadership should never come at the cost of your health, family, or humanity. Too often, we are forced to lead in systems not built for us — carrying the invisible weight of representation, navigating inequities, and balancing cultural values with institutional demands.

There is a better way: leadership rooted in authenticity, mindfulness, and justice.

With over 30 years of experience as an educator, community organizer, scholar, and CEO, I help Filipina leaders and Women of Color executives move from burnout and systemic exhaustion to liberation, leadership, and legacy.

My Culturally Grounded Frameworks include:

• The NARRA Method© – Nurture · Advance · Reclaim · Revolutionize · Activate

• RISE UP© – Reclaim - Ignite - Sustain - Excavate - Uplift - Progress

• Ingat Ka™ Micro Meditations – Mindfulness resets for leaders and families

Who I Serve:

• Filipina leaders breaking barriers in leadership

• Women of color executives navigating inequitable systems

• Organizations committed to justice, equity, and human-centered leadership

Beyond Leadership:

I am also a mother, spouse, and storyteller. Through coaching, consulting, courses, and my podcast Ascend with Claire Oliveros™ I create pathways for Filipina and Women of Color leaders to share stories, flourish, and build lasting legacies.
