Hi, I’m Clare Elizabeth Dea.

Once a perfectionist hiding in the wings, I’ve claimed the stage — as a performance artist, keynote speaker, facilitator, author, and host of Fuckup Nights Melbourne — igniting audiences to own their story and shine with unstoppable flair.

Think Madonna meets Brené Brown. Iconic. 

Blending inspirational comedy skits, musical mash-ups, and electric storytelling, I craft an experience that’s part TED Talk, part Broadway spectacular — usually with a dash of cheeky 90s nostalgia — and absolutely all heart.

Media Reel

I’ve had the thrill of appearing on well renowned TV shows, documentaries, and media platforms — celebrated for blending personal development, spirituality, business, and the performing arts into unforgettable experiences.

BOOK ME TO PRESENT

  • Close-up of a black physical checkers piece with a matte finish, positioned at an angle on a black background.
  • Gray circular logo with the words "STUDIO 12" inside a speech bubble, centered within the circle.
  • A metallic sign spelling out "money" with a dark background.

My greatest passion is cultivating community — creating spaces where people truly connect, collaborate and shine their brightest together.

This is why I’m now the host of Fuckup Nights Melbourne —

Where business flops take centre stage, we stick our finger up at perfection and bring together a thriving crew of leaders.

If you’re hosting heart-led events in Australia or internationally and want to elevate the impact and energy for your audience, I’d love to collaborate.

My transformational theatrical experiences don’t just entertain — they create a powerful vibe that drops audiences into presence, connection, and inspired action.

As a kid, I was a wannabe
diva lighting up every stage

(and busking at the shopping centre)…

A young girl with blonde hair and blue eyes, smiling and wearing a pink sweatshirt with black text that says 'TALK ABOUT'. She is outdoors near water, holding her hair back with one hand.

Until 15, when only one boob popped out. Surprise! I was born with Poland Syndrome, a rare condition where the left side of my body is smaller than the right. Even after surgery and scoring “perfect-looking titties,” shame ruled my life. I swore my family to secrecy about my implant and made it my mission to hide every imperfection.

My 20s were a neverending challenge. Rejected by lovers, friends, and the entertainment industry more times than I can count, I finally realised something had to change — me. Becoming a self-help junkie and investing years in therapy, I grabbed my story by the mic, took responsibility for my life, and let the world hear every juicy, messy, glorious detail.

After my first keynote, a woman leaned in and whispered: “I have Poland Syndrome too…and I’ve never told a soul.” That moment revealed the magic of vulnerability and my higher calling…

“

To slay shame and help people feel truly seen and heard.

I published The One Breast Goddess: Transforming Shame Into Beauty —

My debut book that cracked me wide open and carried my message across the world.

Let’s just say… my boobies have now received many standing ovations.

For the past decade, I’ve bared my soul on stage with fierce, courageous keynotes — sharing my journey through body image, perfectionism, money shame, and showing how I built my dream career by dancing to the wild rhythm of intuition.

For over 15 years, I’ve built and run businesses supporting creatives, artists, and entrepreneurs — helping them step onto their own stages through embodiment and holistic performing arts practices, unleashing their most authentic expression.
