Philosophy
Harmony, balance, well-being
THIA is, above all, a wellness approach that nurtures the body, the mind, and the spaces we live in. We all long for a calmer life—one where energy flows freely and we feel truly at home.
Yoga teaches us to listen to our bodies, to build strength, flexibility, and balance, and to breathe more deeply to soothe the mind. Organizing our space helps us clear out the unnecessary, lighten our daily routines, and create a harmonious environment that restores us.
At THIA, it’s all about harmony. When body, mind, and living space are aligned, we rediscover a beautiful lightness in life.
Values
Empathy
Each session is tailored to meet your unique needs.
Life is about being authentic, humble, kind, and empathetic.”
Life isn’t about being popular, collecting degrees, or aiming for perfection…
Life is about facing challenges, confronting your shadows to grow, learning through experience, and helping others grow too. But above all, life is about being true, humble, kind, and deeply empathetic.
Kindness
A sincere approach that honors your unique way of being.
🌿 Kindness, time, attention, honesty, loyalty, and effort—these are the greatest gifts.
I’ve never been drawn to material possessions or the things people could give me.
What I’ve always truly valued are kindness, time, attention, honesty, loyalty, and genuine effort. To me, these gifts mean far more than anything money could ever buy.
Respect
Honor your space, your body, and your energy—never by force, always with grace.
When I take care of myself, I have so much more to give to the world.
Listen to your inner voice and the colors of your heart. Choose what lights you up—and allow yourself to feel good. Make yourself the top priority on your to-do list… that’s the real essential.
When I care for myself first, I have so much more to offer than when I’m running on empty. I recharge with uplifting energy for myself—and then I share the overflow with others.”
Positivity
Every transformation should be a joyful, pleasurable moment.
Positivity feeds positivity. “Only good vibes—because vibes don’t lie.”
I’m at a place in life where peace is my priority, and negativity is no longer welcome. I carry this serenity with me and share it with those around me. And when things feel too heavy—it’s time to let them go.
If you can stay positive in a negative situation, you’ve already won.
Positivity sustains positivity. “Only good energy—because energy doesn’t lie.” Just good vibes, because waves speak the truth.
Patience
Every small step matters—and I’m here to guide you and help you spark that motivation within.
With patience and persistence, we move forward—one step at a time—toward our goals.
Because Paris wasn’t built in a day… Getting to where I am now, and where you are now, took time. Reaching where you’ll be tomorrow will also take time—and that’s okay. Time and patience are the true companions of progress.
With steady patience and dedication, we keep walking—step by step—toward the life we envision.
Biography
Born in Geneva, an international city, I’ve always had a thirst for discovery. From a very young age, travel was a natural part of my life—at just four years old, I took my first flight alone.
I grew up in the countryside, surrounded by gentle healing practices, organic and vegetarian nutrition, soothing shiatsu massages, and a deep connection to nature.
In my closet, a torn magazine page showing yoga poses for children stayed with me—already a quiet companion on my path.
Then one day, a photo of young girls in classical ballet sparked something within me—it was a revelation. I dove into this art with passion.
Dance taught me flexibility, strength, and balance. It shaped my awareness of the body, the synchronicity of breath and movement, and the importance of alignment… foundational principles that I would later rediscover through yoga.
From exploring the world to exploring oneself
Through personal experience, I learned early on the subtle art of interior arrangement—how to optimize space, embrace the benefits of organization, and cultivate the importance of a well-structured environment, where everything has its place and there’s a place for everything.
My parents taught me to see tidiness as an act of respect. Folding clothes neatly—rather than leaving them in a heap—was a way of honoring our belongings and the energy they carry. Much later, discovering Marie Kondo felt like a revelation, though I realized that this philosophy had been a part of me all along.
As an adult, I continued to take on design and organizing projects, always infusing them with a touch of Feng Shui—whether for family spaces or my own homes.

Exploration and self-improvement
As a teenager, leotards and tights gave way to boots and chunky sweaters as I turned to horseback riding. It deepened my connection to nature—a bond that still runs strong in my yoga approach inspired by the five elements, and in my home organizing style, where I bring harmony to spaces through the principles of Feng Shui.
My passion for travel never faded, and my curiosity for foreign languages led me to venture out on my own to Germany at 14. Then at 16, I took a leap into the unknown with a year in the United States. It was a transformative experience—I discovered an unexpected adaptability within myself and returned nearly bilingual, deeply changed.
At 17, I lived alone in a 16m² studio, optimized down to the last inch, learning the ropes of adult life early on. And for my 18th birthday, I gifted myself a solo trip to London. That freedom to explore has always been my greatest nourishment.
Public speaking was always a challenge for me, but in a bold effort to grow, I entered a beauty pageant—not to win, but to have fun and embrace the experience as a way to reconnect with the joy of performing.
Standing on stage before 300 people, I delivered a speech celebrating the power of sharing smiles and the joy of living. That moment opened the door to the Miss France competition.
Selected as one of the 12 finalists at just 19 years old, I suddenly found myself speaking in front of thousands at Monaco’s convention center—and millions of viewers tuning in. What a challenge!
Everyone may have their own opinion, but for me, this experience was transformative. It expanded my comfort zone in ways I never imagined.
I had the chance to travel, explore the behind-the-scenes world of media, learn choreography, bond with fellow contestants who became close friends, and connect with people at countless events. What a gift.
Find your way
As a child, my dream was to master every profession in the world.
My journey has been rich and diverse. When I felt stressed during exams, someone suggested yoga… but at the time, it felt way too slow for me! I needed to run, swim, dance, ski—anything to burn off energy. Yoga would find me later, when the moment was right.
With a background in science, vocational training in tourism, a degree in geography, and studies in education, I was well-equipped to become a schoolteacher. I spent three years teaching in France before realizing that it wasn’t the right path for me.
I then shifted direction and pursued a degree in administrative management and human resources.
This path led me to work as an executive assistant in a Geneva-based tech company. In this small-scale startup, I took on a variety of responsibilities, including the exciting opportunity to coordinate our participation in major marketing events in Abu Dhabi and Frankfurt.
Seeking a more human-centered and visually harmonious environment, I found my true calling as the assistant to the Director of a stunning luxury boutique in Geneva.
It was there that I reconnected with my passion for personalized support, which naturally led me to evolve into the role of High Jewelry Coordinator.
But something was still missing: meaning. A desire to help more people in their everyday lives. A longing to make a positive impact on the world.
Yoga and organization, revelations of balance
With the pressure of VIP client presentations and irregular hours, I found myself coping by eating too much—and not well. My weight fluctuated constantly.
In 2015, I stumbled upon dynamic yoga on YouTube, hoping to lose weight. I started a simple 30-day challenge… but it turned into so much more.
Yoga quickly became my anchor. It helped me optimize my energy, embrace moderation, and most importantly—elevate my level of awareness.
Yoga opened the door to an almost limitless world of learning. I deepened my practice through trainings, retreats, and workshops, each one expanding my understanding and connection to myself.
At the same time, I kept organizing my home and workspace to feel better and stay focused.
One evening, while watching a trivia game show, I heard a contestant mention the Marie Kondo method. Intrigued, I dove into her books, applied the method in my own space—and felt the magic she describes through a deep inner shift.
THIA: an obvious choice
I decided to pursue professional training and became a certified home organizer.
Helping others lighten their lives, find practical, personalized solutions, and watching their faces light up as they rediscover a harmonious space—that’s an immense joy.
For me, tidying isn’t just about organizing objects—it’s about creating an environment that nurtures well-being and serenity. It’s about learning to choose what truly serves us in the life we want to live.
After nine years of dedicated yoga practice, I felt a deep calling to share this way of life. In 2024, I traveled to India for a 200-hour multi-style yoga teacher training—a powerful immersion that rooted me even more deeply in the philosophy of yoga.
I believe that nothing happens by chance. If you’re here today, it means our paths were meant to cross.
Everything unfolds for a reason—so let’s discover it together.
Welcome to THIA.
Yoga taught me that our limits are often the ones we place on ourselves. To go beyond them, I challenge myself: Paragliding and via ferrata to overcome my fear of heights, Ice baths and snowshoe walks in a swimsuit using the Wim Hof Method to embrace the cold, Walking on fire to break through limiting beliefs.
Each experience helps me grow, recenter, and better understand the workings of the mind.
Today, I’m deeply committed to sharing what I’ve learned—insights that helped me expand my comfort zone, manage emotions, let go of the unnecessary, and focus on what truly matters: living fully, lightly, and joyfully.
Whether through yoga, space organization, or guidance toward greater clarity, everything I offer leads to one essential goal, harmony : feeling good, within yourself and in your home.
