Claudia Taboada

Claudia Taboada has a B.Sc. in Biochemistry and an LL.B. in Common Law from the University of Ottawa and is a former labour and employment attorney. She is now an author, an award winning international speaker, a burnout prevention, stress resilience and holistic wellness coach for busy high achieving women and an advocate for non-negotiable self-care. She lives in Montréal with her two boys.

Claudia is also an entrepreneur, a digital course creator and the founder of the Unstoppable You Wellness Academy with a double mission: (1) to empower high achieving mothers who are suffering from burnout, chronic stress or simply physical and mental exhaustion to reclaim their health, rediscover their spark and become UNSTOPPABLE in all areas of their lives, (2) assist organizations and businesses in their quest to provide in-house wellness and burnout prevention strategies to their female employees so that the later can better achieve work/life balance. This is accomplished in several ways: 3 day and half-day workshops, keynote speeches, group and individual coaching as well digital courses and digital products. All these services and products are based on Claudia's proprietary processes which include her signature "H3MJPC Self-Care and Stress Resilience Blueprint" as well as her "S.P.A.R.K. Self-Actualization Method" and her "F.G.P.S Mindset Mastery Framework".

Claudia wears many hats, but of all her roles her most precious one is being mom to her two boys - Nico and Alex.

The seed for Claudia’s passion and mission to empower busy women (especially mothers wearing multiple hats) was planted 20 years ago when she decided to abandon her law career to care full-time for Nico who had been recently diagnosed with classic autism. Claudia became THE Ultimate Super Autism Mom: not only mom but also the psychologist, the teacher, the speech therapist, the advocate and the early program intervention manager, among others - all while taking care of her other toddler. In all of the autism caregiving whirlwind, Claudia LOST HER IDENTITY, along with her dreams and her aspirations.

She didn't know WHO she was anymore other than being a special needs caregiver.

She was burned out, overwhelmed, chronically depressed and living her life on auto pilot....until one day - by pure accident - she discovered the power of NON-NEGOTIABLE SELF-CARE.

In February 2020, Claudia published her memoir "Burnout to Unstoppable" which details her transformational journey from the overwhelmed and burned out autism mom who lost her identity to the self-actualized woman that she is now.

Claudia accomplished her remarkable transformation via her "secret formula" of self-care, mindset optimization and stress reduction strategies which she will outline in detail in her second book "Beat Motherhood Burnout: 7 Self-Care Habits to Reduce Stress and Be Unstoppable" which is coming out at the end of 2022.

This secret formula has now been transformed into her proprietary process the "H3MJPC Self-Care and Stress Resilience Blueprint" which she now teaches to busy high achieving women from around the world and which is the basis for her signature "12 Week Self-Care To Thrive Women's Empowerment Program".

Claudia has been interviewed by major publications, including Thrive Global, Authority Magazine and Medium.

In the past two years, Claudia has also appeared on several podcasts and has been a guest speaker at 11 online summits.

She also participated at the June 2020 Open Mic TEDx Montreal Women’s online event where she spoke about mindset and resilience and has presented her frameworks at 4 international conferences taking place in Toronto, New York, Paris and Barcelona. At the last conference, Claudia was awarded Best Speaker Award for her talk "The S.P.A.R.K. Self-Actualization Method: From Surviving to Thriving to Leading a Life of Purpose".

Claudia was also featured speakers at the "WOMEN - RISE - SHINE - Congress" in Paris on March 8, 2022 where she presented her new talk "The 5 Mistakes That Are Keeping Working Moms Stuck in a Cycle of Chronic Stress and Burnout" and will be giving two more international talks in Paris and Rome in October and November 2022.

Finally, Claudia leads the women's empowerment community ''The Unstoppable Mom Project'' which is a free private FB group where she empowers, motivates and inspires her fellow busy women to become UNSTOPPABLE via the power of non-negotiable self-care. She holds free online workshops, trainings and challenges inside the group and goes live regularly to teach on self-care, burnout prevention, total health, time-management, etc. If you are a mom who wants a dose of motivation and empowerment, please join "The Unstoppable Mom Project".
