A trained midwife and mother of 5 children, I took a turning point in my life in 2014 when I decided to launch an entrepreneurial impact project with my life partner, Nicolas. Together, we created Ma Bonne Etoile with the goal of raising awareness and helping as many people as possible take concrete steps towards a waste-free AND fair future.
