I spent my whole life wired to be a top performer…which was not essentially bad. The only thing lacking was compassion.

Why change? Because it portrays choice. Why perspective? Because I believe that perspective provides the focal length that’s required to make decisions and choose.

Choice was a luxury that I did not have access to since as far as my memory takes me back. No violins needed, I had a happy childhood. I grew up on a little gem of an island in the middle of the Indian Ocean, and I reminisce that life as being full of colours, smells and textures. 

Reading gave me a true feeling of discovering, exploring and creating my reality, and sport presented me with the feeling of putting my best possible self out there and aim for excellence.

Together, these pursuits shaped my core values, built my self-confidence and provided me with the tools to tackle life.

Not being given a voice or having my choices constantly silenced turned out to be the pivoting factor in my life which helped me build resilience.

From there stemmed my desire to “fix” whatever would not be working, to rescue whatever I thought was doomed, to uplift whatever was going down. But this is energy demanding, and one has to be prepared for failure, equipped to cope…and even better, turn things around. I eventually figured out that working on attitudes through individual or collective empowerment of people was the sustainable fuel leading to positive change.

I wish to share what I learned, what I am still learning, the tools and values that accompany me at every step and empower people with the drive to change and moult to a better version of themselves.
