My passion is to make people smile and that it will last and work over time
As an orthodontist, I have been doing it with teenagers for 30 years.
It’s a kind of blueprint of mine: laying foundations for what will contribute to make people happy and go along with them for the rest of their lives.
This fills me up with joy!
So naturally, I like to pass on to others, especially young adults, communication basics that will make them happy and conscious in relationships.
I am neither a therapist or a theorist of this or that method. I like practical means, simple, and if possible universal, giving immediate visible results and empowering people.
Not being necessarily gifted initially with communication skills, and having to face lots of fears from patients, very soon I looked for efficient tools that could help me.
I am a relationship expert, especially for going through fears with kindness
My first trainers are of course my partner, children and co-workers. They are the ones challenged me sufficiently enough so that I decided to change and live today rich and fulfilling close relationships.
It’s in a way what I try to pass on: everything is already there, in oneself. You just have to become yourself. Relationships with other human beings reveal me to myself.
I like to share relational tools like NVC or Imago because they change people’s lives.
It’s important for me to offer them to people who might have financial or geographical access to them. I have been giving workshops for 5 years in Kenya, Benin, Portugal whether with corporates, couples, singles, orphans, families and communities.
Ah, something else about me :
I love to work with youth because they have an incredible life energy, put immediately what they learn in practice, dare to dream and follow their ideal. Witnessing how they become themselves, more conscious and in connection with others, bringing to the world the unique and irreplaceable gift of their presence: that’s inspiring!
