I'm a Paris-based designer turned writer, creative coach, and workshop facilitator who is American by birth and French by hard work. My first book, 'OVERRIDE! What if there was another way? A pocket playbook for possibility' came out in May 2024. I'm known for making people map on bananas ;)

OVERRIDE! What if there was another way? A pocket playbook for possiblity
It’s time to PLAY.
Why do we look to the world around us for all the answers and validation? When we ignore ourselves and our unique experience, we risk limiting our potential—both for ourselves and for the world.
OVERRIDE! is an invitation to see a world of possibilities we’ve never considered through reflective prompts, mindset shifts, creative exercises, and strategies for action. In order to override, new action is required to have a different outcome. What if there was another way?
ENJOY the [over]ride!
This 220 page playbook is designed to be written in, marked up and loved.
Extras with the book:
+ Bonus mini banana mapping (online) workshop included with purchase of the book
+ Companion website to continue the conversation
+ Facilitation guide (online) for book clubs and groups
+ Access to an incredible library of resources
