Speaker.
On stage, I don’t deliver perfect formulas or polished clichés.
I share lived experiences. From building and selling my startup to Twitter, to leading in big tech, to investing in the next generation of founders while raising two kids, my talks are rooted in honesty and real lessons learned. I speak about leadership, doubt, gender equality, and the invisible side of success with the same openness I bring to my writing. My goal is not just to inspire, but to leave audiences with the courage to question, to reinvent, and to lead with more humanity.

An immersive show created to showcase bold ideas and share raw stories
GenAI Show 2024
by Motier Ventures
The GenAI Show by Motier Ventures is one of the most electrifying stages in Europe’s tech ecosystem. Hosted at Lafayette Anticipations in Paris, it brings together the pioneers of generative AI, the founders of startups like Mistral, Dust, Finegrain, and Gladia, in a live show format that feels closer to a Netflix special than a business conference. With bold conversations, raw storytelling, and world-class innovation on display, the GenAI Show has quickly become the go-to event for anyone who wants to witness the future of AI being written in real time.

The podcast that dives into the stories of selfmade people
GDIY -
Podcast
Génération Do It Yourself (GDIY), hosted by Matthieu Stefani, is one of Europe’s leading podcasts, with millions of listens and a reputation for long-form, unfiltered conversations. Over the years, it has welcomed some of the world’s most influential voices — from Emmanuel Macron, President of France, to Brian Chesky, co-founder & CEO of Airbnb — as well as top entrepreneurs, investors, athletes, and creatives. GDIY has become the go-to platform for exploring the real stories behind extraordinary success.
When Matthieu Stefani invited me to Génération Do It Yourself (#453), it was an opportunity to dive deeper than just the headlines of having sold Aiden.ai to Twitter. On that podcast, I spoke candidly about the early struggles of building an AI startup, the intense emotional rollercoaster behind the acquisition, and my decision to leave Twitter as Elon Musk took charge. We also discussed being a “female alpha” in tech, the importance of diversity in innovation, and the challenge of writing an autobiographical book (EXIT) without any publishing background. It was one of the most honest conversations I’ve had no filters, just the messy, real side of success.
