Clare Morin is a writer, meditator, wife, content marketer, cat mother, and student of Buddhism, peace and meditation. Her writing career began in her hometown of Hong Kong, where she worked as a full time arts writer and editor with publications such as Time Out Hong Kong, the South China Morning Post and HK Magazine. It was an existential project in a city that was moving through a powerful moment as the former colony was handed back to China.
Clare interviewed the city's artists as well as the global arts stars that flew into the city. She also set up a pseudo company, The Tyrrell Corporation, based on her maiden name and the fact that Hong Kong was the original inspiration for the legendary film, Bladerunner. The Corp created arts projects and worked with the city's young punk stars to help raise their profiles. Clare then took this work to Asia City Media, where she helped to build an events division and launch events like the band showcase HK Live! and collaborating on projects like the I Shot Hong Kong Film Festival.
In 2006, Clare reunited with her true love, the American drummer, sound engineer and house builder, Tim Morin. In 2009, they moved to the US and the pine forests of Maine. She has spent the decade since working as a holographic content marketer, for leading agencies as well as software and financial services brands. Her current role is as an audience builder for the Fortune 300 global benefits provider Unum, of which she is the host of the HR Trends podcast and producer of a thriving webinars and events series. The goal: educate, inspire, influence, problem solve, and build community.
But at the heart of it all is Clare's meditation practice. It keeps her sane, balanced, joyful and more patient than anything else in her life. She spend most of her free time studying, volunteering and teaching with the non-profit Kadampa Meditation Center Boston. In her blog, she often dwells and reflects on these ancient mind science teachings.
