Carton d’invitation is a podcast that celebrates creative people - expressing themselves through fashion, music and design. Self-reflective moments with creators motivated by the search for beauty - and community.

These are people whose creative explorations help us all feel seen.

Along the way, you will learn how to design a garment, compose a pop song, create a brand, become an influencer or make a movie. Most especially, you will hear how my guests became comfortable being just who they are.

Hear perspectives from Berlin, London, Toronto, Milan and Paris.

I’m Nancy Devitt Tremblay and I’ve been a TV interviewer for the CBC and for the iconic Fashion Television; I covered fashion in Paris during the Golden Age in the 1990s and I’m currently working on a documentary about that experience. I’m meeting all kinds of creative people now on my journey so I’m creating portraits of these interesting folks in this podcast series.

I do hope you come along on this adventure with me as I travel around the world meeting people who just can’t help but live their lives expressively - maybe they are already famous, maybe they are on their way or maybe they have just figured out the secret to enjoying a life of self expression and creativity for its own sake.

During its first season, this podcast was known as Teaching the Teacher.  And those conversations are still available here too - featuring accomplished under-30's, talking about how they figured out who they wanted to be: a chef, a best-selling author, an immunologist, an astrophysicist, a diplomat, a doctor, a podcast star, a hedge fund trader...and many more.
