Claudia Milligan is a spiritual companion, retreat facilitator, consultant, guide, and coach to individuals and groups as they ask the questions, "Who am I, where am I going, and what are the skills I need?"

Claudia has a master’s degree in educational leadership, is a former teacher, and has served the Jacksonville not-for-profit community for 25 years.  In 1980 she attended Cursillo and in 1984 moved to Jacksonville from Fernandina St. Peter’s and became a member of St. John’s Cathedral.  Her past church lay activities include ECW member and officer, sanctuary guild, vestry, and teen confirmation teacher.

In 2000, she vacationed with friends to the Latin America country of Guatemala.  Returning from that trip, she realized she must return, not only to serve the people of Guatemala, but also, to continue her spiritual journey, as well.

In 2001, at the age of 50-something, she quit her job as the Executive Director of Learn to Read, raised support, joined the group, Volunteer Missionary Movement (www.vmmusa.org ), left her family and friends, her only child, who was single and 26 years old, and moved to Guatemala to live for 27 months.

Her assignment for two years was to work in an education project, Safe Passage (www.safepassage.org) with children who worked with their families recycling from the garbage dump of Guatemala City.  Service to others is important and valuable; yet, the lessons of compassion, loving kindness, and humility changed her life.

Returning to the States in 2003, she found it difficult to adjust.  With reflection and soul searching, she created CMilligan, LLC to serve others on their journeys.  She believes that everyone is on a journey.  The journey is the process, not the destination.  She understands that not everyone has to leave the country to find his or her path. 

As well as coaching and mentoring individuals, Claudia serves as a consultant for not-for-profits in the areas of development and transition and as a consultant and spiritual companion for businesses and churches.  Consulting with leaders, she creates and facilitates retreats.
