Behind the Scenes

8 Quirky Facts About Me

Global Explorer

My life’s a globe-trotting adventure! Born in sunny Abidjan (Ivory Coast), I navigated childhood in chic Paris (France), surfed into adulthood in sunny San Diego (USA), hustled up the corporate ladder in glitzy Dubai (UAE), and leaped into entrepreneurship in charming Lisbon (Portugal). I’ve truly lived across four continents!

Life Without a Pancreas

It’s true, I live without a pancreas! Born with hereditary Chronic Pancreatitis, my genes, unfortunately, programmed my pancreatic enzymes to attack the organ itself since birth. This led to its complete destruction, resulting in type 1 diabetes and exocrine pancreatic insufficiency. But here I am, thriving against the odds.

Power Walking Enthusiast

No matter what life throws at you – feeling unwell, exhausted, or just in need of a mood boost – my universal remedy? Power walking! It’s not just a hobby; it’s my go-to solution for everything. Whether you’re facing life’s lows or just looking to enjoy the highs, I say, “Walk it off!” And yes, my home must always be within strolling distance of a good park.

“OPTIMISM fuels our PERSEVERANCE, GRATITUDE nurtures our COMPASSION, and LEARNING propels our growth.

Embrace all of these values, and you will find the strength to THRIVE in any situation.”

Optimism

Optimism, a powerful value, transforms our perspective on challenges into opportunities for growth, instilling courage, resilience, and the unwavering belief that with determination, our dreams are within reach, as we embrace endless possibilities and a brighter future.

Perseverance

Perseverance, coupled with an optimistic outlook, empowers us to overcome obstacles and grow stronger by challenging ourselves, fostering determination, resilience, and the belief that difficulties are opportunities for learning, enabling us to push through tough times and achieve true success.

Gratitude

Gratitude helps us shift our perspective, appreciating what we have and finding positivity in life, fostering contentment and happiness even in challenging times, while also enabling us to embrace balance and acceptance amid adversity.

Compassion

Compassion, a cherished value, involves understanding others’ unique experiences and struggles, allowing us to empathize, treat them with kindness, and foster a more compassionate and connected world, where diverse individuals support and connect with one another, striving towards a more peaceful and harmonious society.

Learning

Learning is a core value for continuous growth and development, as stagnation follows when we stop seeking knowledge. Embracing open-mindedness, challenging beliefs, and learning from mistakes are crucial for personal growth.
