“One of the best things I’ve ever learned was to love myself, you become a better friend you become a better person, you become even more generous.” - Sofia Guellaty 

This week, I sit down with Sofia Guellaty, founder of Mille World, an online platform for Arab youth and culture. 

Sofia grew up in Tunis, studied history, political science and communication in Paris, interned with Rodarte in New York, and became a published author at age 19. 

She later fell in love with the idea of using fashion as her mode of communication with the world. Unfair, her first publication folding, led to her role as editor in chief at the the first Conde Nast property in the Middle East, until she left to launch Mille. 

In this episode, Sofia talks about her love for singing, fashion, and being true to herself.

In this episode I get to sit down with renowned photographer and storyteller, Matthieu Paley.
One of the remarkable qualities of Matthieu is his passion to experiment with human experience and to tackle all the psychological challenges of adapting oneself to a new environment to be able to tell an accurate story.
We talk about a wide range of topics in this podcast, from self directed learning to the preconceived ideas that we, as humans, have been fed, and having the ability to unlearn and let go of them.
It was an absolute joy to experience Matthieu’s energy and sheer intellectual curiosity. I hope you enjoy listening to it as much as I enjoyed recording it.
