Claire Kittle explains the simple 2025 habit she refuses to leave behind in the new year

George Kittle’s wife Claire Kittle is stepping into 2026 with a clear mindset. In a recent interview, she spoke openly about one personal goal she started in 2025 and now plans to keep going. Her words came as she continues to grow her voice beyond the sidelines and into media and brand work.

Claire Kittle shared her thoughts while speaking to People magazine in late December 2025, just days before the new year. The interview followed her partnership with Smirnoff’s “We Do Game Days” campaign, where she talked about growth, fear, and learning to say yes.

While speaking with People, Claire Kittle said her biggest goal has been learning to say yes more often. She explained that in 2025, she challenged herself to accept new chances instead of turning them down out of fear or comfort.

“I think I’ve been doing a pretty good job of just trying to say yes to more opportunities,” Claire said. She added that she now feels confident in who she is and wants to see where those choices may lead her.

Claire also shared that growth often starts with discomfort. “That uncomfortable fear zone is where you grow,” she said, calling the idea simple but hard to follow.

Claire first tried this mindset during the 2024 NFL season and carried it fully into 2025. As she heads into 2026, she plans to keep pushing herself in the same way.



In 2025, Claire Kittle launched her digital series “Wife’d Up & Mic’d Up,” which shows life behind the scenes for NFL partners. She worked closely with Kristin Juszczyk, wife of Kyle Juszczyk, to share real moments from game days and travel life.

This season has also been strong for San Francisco 49ers. The team has won 12 games so far and is preparing to face the Seattle Seahawks.

George Kittle missed one game after hurting his ankle in Week 16, but told ESPN’s Nick Wagoner that he is feeling “great” and ready for the Saturday night Week 18 game.

Claire recently shared an emotional Instagram post marking the final stadium of her journey watching George play across all NFL venues. She called the experience a dream and said the memories will last forever.
