Claire Donovan
Wellness Writer & Contributor
Claire is a freelance wellness writer based in Portland, Oregon. After completing a degree in theology and burning out halfway through graduate school, she stumbled into the world of narrative gaming as an unexpected form of self-care — and never looked back.
Her writing explores the places where faith, mental health, and modern life intersect in ways that are sometimes messy, often surprising, and always honest. She is particularly interested in how young women build sustainable routines for rest and recovery.
When she is not writing, Claire can usually be found with a cup of herbal tea and a JRPG save file. She has been contributing to Radiant Magazine since 2026.
