Mooncup Girl: The Unexpected Spotlight

Brighton, England 2004. I was walking through the streets when a woman stopped me and said, “Oh my goddess, you’re perfect for my product!” Her name was Sue, founder of Mooncup. She asked me on the spot to join a photo shoot. I didn’t really know what Mooncup was, but her energy pulled me in. I said yes.

That yes led to talks, new communities, unexpected recognition—even someone spotting me in a café in Goa and saying, “Hey, are you the Mooncup girl?” I laughed, nodded, and felt proud. That photo had travelled. So had the message.

One day I passed a bus stop in Brighton and saw my face in the glass, holding the Mooncup. Then a bus drove by—same image, full size. I stood there, watching myself ride past. Haha!!!

Representing a product that embraced and celebrated women’s natural cycles was incredibly healing.
I was giving language to an experience my younger self had to carry alone.

Growing up in France, no one told me what a period was. I found blood in my underwear and panicked. My mother gave me a huge pad, told me to wash, and walked away. No explanation. No welcome. Just shame and silence.

My initiation into womanhood felt cold and abrupt, leaving me confused and disconnected from this natural part of life.
So when I became the Mooncup girl, something shifted. I was standing for something that honored the cycle.

I was rewriting that moment for myself.
I felt a profound sense of purpose, knowing I was part of a movement encouraging women to connect with their bodies respectfully and empoweringly.

Being part of this movement I never had access to as a girl—real, direct, unapologetic.
No roles to play. No softening needed. Just pride—and the sense that this was always meant to be claimed.

REFLECT:

What part of your story are you still dimming to protect someone else’s comfort—and what would change when you stopped?

When you speak the part you’ve been holding back, where does your body loosen—what unclenches, what breath returns?

✨The Rain. The Coin. The Stage ✨

In Tallinn, Estonia, it was the final day of .
I woke up to a downpour—one of those soft, gray mornings that pulls you inward. My body wanted to stay tucked in, warm and quiet, yet something subtle stirred beneath the covers.

Sonia Choquette was speaking that day. I knew her voice from afar—her work had touched me before—and still, a part of me hesitated. So I did something I always do: I flipped a coin. Heads, I go. Tails, I stay. Heads it was.

I walked in the rain, barefoot in my Crocs,
Laughing to myself, soaked saying out loud, “What am I doing?” I could’ve stayed in, watched her online.

Inside the venue, lights softened. Applause rippled as Sonia stepped on stage. Her presence carried a different weight. She spoke of intuition, of learning to quiet the barking dog inside, of reclaiming that sacred space where our inner voice lives.

I sat beside a french lady I had never met, and together we dropped into the practice. It felt like being pulled inward by a thread of knowing. And then—it happened.

Sonia looked out at the crowd and her eyes found mine.

She smiled, raised her hand, and invited me up.

The room blurred. My feet were bare. My heart raced like a wild drum. Everything in me screamed, “Not me, not now.” And yet, I stood. I moved. I answered the call.

On stage, she asked my name. “Emmanuelle,” I said. And it echoed—inside me, around me, through me. That moment felt like a veil dissolving.

She took my hand, smiled into my soul, and said, “Emmanuelle, wave to the universe.”

That wave—so simple—carried the weight of lifetimes. My name landed like a prayer. I felt it anchor into me.
I felt so alive.

Emmanuelle. “God is with us.”
That day, I truly waved to the universe.
I let the universe see me.
And in return, it whispered,
Welcome, Emmanuelle. Step forward. It is your time to shine.

THE CHEEK AGAINST THE WIND
✨ A love letter to a soul once held under Goa’s stars ✨
Lotfi.
In Arabic, his name means gentle, kind, a graceful soul.
And that, he truly was.

I met him in Goa, 1999.
The first year my steps touched that land after seven years of wandering through India.
A meeting sparked by the invisible — no hesitation, no doubt, just ignition.

From the very first night, everything felt handwritten by something greater.
I remember the ride: hair in the wind, my cheek pressed against his, arms wrapped tight around his hips as we drove under a cathedral of stars smiling.
The road stretched ahead; the night carried us; the world faded into a golden stillness, into timeless wonder.

Our story danced across Tunisia, Ibiza, Geneva — every place a deeper thread, every day a new book opened between us.
Books filled our mornings, lazy breakfasts under the Goa sun, and quiet evenings by the soft light of a single lamp.
He always had a book ready for me, a line, a world he wanted me to meet.

The beach was our playground.
He taught me how to strike the racquet just right, how to move with the sway of the sea, laughing through the sunset until our bodies melted into the salt and sky.

These photographs—taken on a New Year’s Eve in Goa by an Indian photographer—capture a season when life burned bright.
The community called us the power couple then.
We received it with a smile and carried it lightly—what mattered lived between us, far from titles and outside voices.

His Enfield carried the spirit of wide roads, raw freedom, and the untamed pulse of India.

Today, I share these pieces of memory, not in sadness.
In honor.
In gratitude.
In remembrance of a soul whose gentleness shaped a part of mine forever.

Wherever you are now, Lotfi—
may you ride under endless stars,
with the same fire in your heart,
with the same wild grace in your soul.

Rest in Power and in Peace. You are loved 🔱

Bouche dorée - My nickname he loved saying to me meaning Golden Lips ✨

LATEX, CHAI & THE SCENT OF hOMe 3~
✨ When ritual meets heartbeat, and service finds its scent ✨

When I lived in Den Haag, Holland, my weekends became sacred rituals.

My then-boyfriend, DJ Remco—aka Remski—was organizing themed parties on week ends called Club Geluk ( Lucky Club ).
While he spun the decks, I stirred the spices. I brewed chai. Real chai.
The kind that fills the room before you even take a sip.

I would collect the ingredients, grind the cardamom, crush the ginger, cloves and let the warmth rise from the pot like a silent blessing.

It felt like a memory, healing, home—served in a cup.

Before the music began, I was sometimes on stage with Claudia, opening the night with a candle-lit meditation.
We’d sit in stillness before the pulse of the night began.
Silence before sound.

Then, back to the chai.
Always earthy. Always warm. Always real.
People would drift to the chillout space, drawn by the smell, the vibe, the ambient music, the grounded corner of the party.

Some had been to India—they’d light up:
“Oh my God… this smells like Varanasi!”
Others didn’t know why they stopped—they just did.

And we talked.
We connected.
About music. About travels. About life.
No filters. No expectations. Just warm cups and open hearts.

That was my holy place.
My ritual inside the dancing party
My sacred act of service

And in the middle of it all, there I was… in full latex.

Because when the party has a theme—you show up.
And I did. Fully.

I’ve always loved wearing bold, unapologetic outfits—dressing like a feeling, not a rule.

My corner became a portal.
People came with their questions, their silence, their laughter, their memories.
Something about chai makes people open.

Serving became a way to return to myself.
Each cup was a gesture of presence.
Each scent a reminder of connection.

Because some nights aren’t just about music or outfits.
They’re about what you stir with your hands.
What you anchor with your energy.
And what you remind people of—without ever saying a word.

REFLECT:

What part of you still knows how to serve joy—
no matter what you’re wearing, where you are, or who’s watching?

.
I’M IN MY BUBBLE RIGHT NOW
✨ And it’s not personal—it’s essential. ✨

There’s a moment when your soul taps you on the shoulder and says: “It’s time.”

Not to perform. Not to respond. Not to show up for others— to show up for what’s processing to be born through you

It doesn’t always come with a clear name
Sometimes it’s the beginning of a book
A vision you’ve been carrying for years
A course. A chapter. A video. A decision.
An untangling of thoughts no one else can help you sort

You pull back—not to disappear,
to return to yourself

No calls
No constant updates
No notifications buzzing like your name is a to-do list

You put the phone on airplane mode
You don’t answer the “hey just checking in.”
You don’t explain or soften the silence

Because here, in your bubble—
the only voice you’re meant to hear is your own

This isn’t disconnection. It’s devotion
Your bubble is your sacred sphere
It’s the place where clarity arrive
Where the ideas land
Where the decisions rise without interruption
Where your creativity has room to breathe

This creative silence is not about isolation—it’s where alignment recalibrates your entire system

You don’t owe your accessibility to anyone
You’re not avoiding them—you’re meeting you

That inner studio becomes the womb of your next vision—where noise dissolves and truth sharpens

Let it be clear:
 • When you say “I’m offline,” you’re honoring focus.
 • When you pull back, you’re choosing depth over distraction.
 • When you don’t reply, it’s not rejection—it’s reclamation.
 • When you’re in this space, it’s not loneliness—it’s alignment.

And the people who get it… won’t take it personally.
They’ll respect it. They’ll cheer for it.
Because they know what it means to be mid-creation, mid-birth, mid-transformation.

Let the world wait.
Let your silence speak more clearly than any explanation.

Because every message you ignore in this space
brings you one breath closer to the message only you can deliver

REFLECT:

What truth keeps trying to land—and gets drowned out by noise?
What would happen if, just for a few days, you went fully into your bubble—with no guilt?
What masterpiece is waiting for your undivided presence?

.
THE HIDDEN COST OF PLAYING SMALL
✨ And why your soul keeps feeling restless ✨

🪷Playing small doesn’t always look like shrinking.
🪷Sometimes it looks like staying busy with things that don’t stretch you
🪷Saying “I’m fine” when you feel the ache of something more
🪷Doing what’s expected—because disappointing others feels heavier than disappointing yourself.

You learned how to be agreeable
To read the room. To keep the peace
You made yourself easier to digest—until parts of you disappeared

You put the mask on…

• Staying busy to avoid what you feel.
• Laughing in rooms that drain you.
• Calling it “loyalty” when it’s self-abandonment.
• Calling it “success” when your soul feels numb.
• Over-giving to avoid being asked how you are.
• Performing confidence while doubting your every word.
• Saying “it’s fine” when your boundaries have clearly been crossed.

The mask helped you feel safe—until it didn’t.
Now you feel the weight of everything you never said out loud.

And still, something pulls at you.
A whisper in your chest:
“You weren’t meant to fit into a space that can’t hold your truth.”

THE REAL COST OF DIMMING YOURSELF

• You call it overthinking—it’s your voice asking for more.
• You call it procrastination—it’s the weight of unspoken desires.
• You keep adjusting—and wonder why you feel unseen.
• You call it burnout—it’s the exhaustion of constantly performing.
• You call it confusion—it’s what happens when you silence your truth for too long.

It begins as a quiet laugh.
Then becomes exhaustion. Disconnection.
And one day, you wake up wondering where your fire went.

HERE’S THE SHIFT

Growth doesn’t ask you to burn it all down.
It asks you:
To stop shrinking to keep the peace.
To stop apologizing for your clarity.
To speak without editing your truth.
To stop waiting for permission to want more
You keep adjusting yourself, and wonder why you feel unseen.
Then it becomes emotional exhaustion. Creative drought. Disconnection from purpose.

There’s a version of you that doesn’t play small.
That version already exists.
Let it speak.

REFLECT:

Where are you underestimating your power?
What truth have you been diluting?

Honor it. Name it. Write it down.

🌟✨Real life story: 31 Years Later: A Soulful Reunion in Paris

Serge and I met 31 years ago while working for Tilt Production. We were both immersed in the buzzing world of French television—he on one show, and I was navigating two, Sportissimo and Salut les Artistes, both airing on France 2, a major national channel in France.
I was the assistant of production, and he… well, Serge had a way of lighting up every room, every conversation, every moment

We became instant friends—laughter, deep talks, shared creative madness. He was sharp, witty, and carried the kind of intelligence that could slide between profound reflection and perfectly-timed jokes. Those years were unforgettable

( I worked in the entertainment for 3 years before being published as author for my detective novel & went on my quest in India )

Fast forward to now—decades later, scattered across cities, countries, lives. I searched everywhere to find him again: Google, LinkedIn, Instagram, Facebook. I even dug into my old email archives from the 90s. I followed every breadcrumb I could find. And then—finally—I stumbled on an site promising to share his email address that might still be his. I typed out a message, hit send, and waited with a wildly hopeful heart

And then… he answered

The joy. The belly-flipping, heart-melting, breath-catching joy. We were about to meet again—in Paris, of all places, at a café near the Louvre.
As soon as I saw him at the exit of the subway standing gracefully, everything inside me said: Yes, this is real. Yes, this is timeless. Yes, this is my dear friend

It was as if no years had passed. We picked up right where we left off—soul to soul, eye to eye, heart to heart. Nothing forced. Just flow. Just truth. That kind of friendship is rare. You don’t hold on to it; it holds on to you

And then, in one of those full-circle moments that only life can write, he held my book in his hands—Reclaim Your True Self. Pride surged through me.
Knowing that I have him back in my life in Paris … this is a Bonus

✨🫶🏽✨

Is there someone you once created with, laughed with, traveled alongside, or shared dreams with—someone who brought out a part of you that mattered?

.
THE MOUTH REMEMBERS WHAT THE MIND FORGETS
✨ Laughing, smiling, giggling—and the return to lightness ✨

There’s a moment—right before you laugh—
when your body softens.
Your shoulders drop.
Your jaw opens.
And something inside you loosens its grip.

Laughter doesn’t wait for permission.
It interrupts tension.
It resets the nervous system.
It reminds you that joy is still accessible—even here.

You didn’t think you needed to laugh until it hit you.
The kind that escapes without planning.
The kind that bubbles up as a giggle you couldn’t hold back.
The kind that turns into tears, snorts, howls, deep belly spasms.
The kind that opens your mouth wider than any spoken truth.

And then, something shifts:
Your mouth remembers how to move for joy.
Not for talking. Not for pleasing. Not for explaining.
For feeling. For releasing. For returning.

You laughed until you cried while watching that movie.
You quoted that one ridiculous joke for years.
You cracked up mid-conversation and couldn’t stop.
You smiled so hard your face hurt—because someone simply got you.
You shared a look across the room, and both burst into laughter.
You made memories through moments no one else would ever understand.

These are the imprints of joy.
Not flashy. Not planned.
Just real.

Smiling is presence.
Laughing is letting go.
Giggling is surrender.
Crying from laughter is holy.

These are mouth rituals.
Openings.
Returns to self.

You spend so much time processing, excavating, journaling, healing—sometimes the medicine is simply found in sound.
The exhale.
The burst.
The wild LOL you didn’t see coming.

This isn’t bypassing the pain.
It’s showing your nervous system a new route out of it.

Joy is not the opposite of healing—it’s part of it.

REFLECT:

When was the last time you let your face fully express joy?
What moment of laughter still lives in your memory, reminding you how free you can feel?
What version of you is still afraid of being seen laughing too loud, too much, too free?

Write from there.
Then smile.
Then laugh—so deeply your younger self hears it echo back through time.

That’s not just laughter.
That’s a return.

THE LETTER YOU NEVER KNEW YOU NEEDED TO WRITE
✨ The healing power of handwritten words—yours and theirs ✨

There’s something sacred about opening a handwritten letter.
The kind you don’t rush through.
The kind you wait for the right moment to unfold—
in the quiet of a Sunday morning,
or at the edge of your bed with a candle lit,
as if the paper itself holds breath.

You feel the weight before you read it.
The pauses in the ink.
The rhythm of the hand that wrote it.

Not just words—presence.
Not just a message—memory.

That’s the power of what’s written by hand.
You don’t just read it—you feel it.
You hear their voice in the silence between lines.
You see their heart in the slope of every letter.
It holds more than ink. It holds intention.

And it stays. In a drawer. Tucked between pages.
Folded with care. Because some words aren’t meant to disappear with a scroll.

Letters become anchors.
They mark time.
They carry sentiment.
They become altars for memory and emotion—
a return to what matters.

What if you could do that for yourself?
This is where journaling becomes a quiet rebellion.
A return to your own voice.
A pause in a world that doesn’t stop.
A moment of “I see you” written from your own hand.

You don’t write to fix yourself.
You write to meet yourself.
To let the page catch what your mouth couldn’t say.
To trace the truth without interruption.

Each page holds space.
Each sentence becomes a mirror.
Each letter becomes a conversation with your past, your pain, your potential.

Journaling begins as a habit and deepens into a form of devotion
To the version of you who once felt invisible.
To the one who carried everything and said nothing.
To the one still learning how to be heard.

Let the ink hold what you were never taught to speak.
Let the silence between paragraphs remind you of your depth.
Let the paper become a witness to your unfolding.

REFLECT:

What would you say to the version of you from five years ago?
What does your current self long to hear in writing?
What truth do you trust more once it’s seen on paper?

One day, those written words will return—
reminding you of what your heart once knew.

.
🌟 THE COURAGE TO ASK—WHEN YOU’RE USED TO HOLDING IT ALL TOGETHER 🌟
✨ When asking for help feels heavier than carrying it alone ✨

You’ve held space for so many.

The mentor.
The guide.
The creator.
The one who always knows how to rise.
You’ve mastered the art of being the strong one.
And in the process, forgot how to need.

Asking for help feels like handing over a piece of your power.
Not because you believe you’re better without support—because somewhere along the way, receiving began to feel unsafe.

You were taught that needing meant weakness.
That independence was noble.
That receiving came with strings.
That gratitude should always outweigh the gift.

So you became the giver.
You gave more than you had.
You held others through their unraveling while hiding your own.

Until the giving turned to depletion.
And the smile felt like a costume.
And your silence said,
“I don’t know how to ask for help without feeling like I’m failing.”

Here’s the truth most don’t say out loud:

Sometimes the ones who guide others forget they’re allowed to ask for direction.
Sometimes the ones who lead feel lost—and still show up.
Sometimes the ones who carry others ache to be held without needing to earn it.

There is no shame in asking.
The real wound lives in the belief that your value is measured by what you carry alone.

You are not less whole when you reach out.
You are not less wise when you admit “I’m not okay.”
You are not less powerful when you whisper, “Can you hold this with me?”

Let yourself receive.
Let someone else be the steady one for a moment.
Let the medicine of being supported find its way in.

And here’s the gift:

Receiving without guilt is its own healing.
Letting someone show up for you without performing worthiness repairs what self-reliance once tried to protect.

REFLECT:

When was the last time you let yourself ask without apologizing?
What part of you believes you have to earn what’s freely given?
Where did you learn that receiving means owing?

Write that version of you a letter.
The one who became the strong one too soon.
Tell them:
You don’t owe anything back for being held

.
🍁 THE PRISON OF OVER 🍁
✨ What looks like growth can sometimes be a distraction ✨

You learned how to do more.
How to optimize your morning.
Stack your habits.
Hack your nervous system.
Fix your mindset.
Push through discomfort.

You became the master of over—
 • Overthinking every conversation.
 • Overdoing every task.
 • Overgiving in the name of love.
 • Overperforming for validation.
 • Overexplaining just to feel understood.
 • Overcompensating for the parts of you still healing.
 • Overcommitting to prove you’re not lazy, lost, or behind.
• Overprocessing every feeling until you disconnect from it.
• Overidentifying with your pain to justify staying small.

You called it ambition.
You called it alignment.
You called it being “on the path.”

Until one day, you couldn’t hear your own breath.

Because somewhere in the noise of becoming your best self, you stopped hearing your actual self.

That’s the quiet cost of “over.”
It looks like growth.
It feels like progress.
Yet it pulls you further away from the grounded, quiet wisdom that always knew the way.

That version of you who doesn’t need to do more to be more.
That version who doesn’t perform purpose—who simply lives it.
That version who can sit in stillness without asking for proof.

You are not here to be efficient.
You are here to be true.

REFLECT:

Where has “over” become your armor?
What happens when you don’t add—when you actually subtract?

Start there.
That’s where the real expansion lives.
