Hello everyone, I’m Alexandra, 42 years old, mother of two lively little girls aged 5 and 7 and married to Damien. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Originally from Clermont-Ferrand, I then studied and started my professional career in Toulouse. I have been living in the Landes for 11 years now. <\/span><\/p>\n I grew up through sport, figure skating, a sport that I practiced in competition. This sport was the rhythm of my weeks with training in the morning, at noon and after school and competitions on weekends all over France. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n Very demanding sport, sometimes ungrateful but which has been a great school of life. I have<\/span>a Master 2 degree from Toulouse Business School and I have been working for 20 years in project management in sports, image management for professional athletes and strategy. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n I created my company 12 years ago, Wellinsport<\/a>. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” custom_padding=”0px|0px|0px|||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.17.4″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n <\/span><\/p>\n St\u00e9phanie Barneix proposed me to manage the Cape Horn expedition in 2013, I accepted and I learned a lot about this very very difficult project before, during and after the expedition. <\/span>I believe that it is during this project that I really understood the meaning of perseverance, of never giving up because we had to face each time complex problems, refusals, difficulties, … But we succeeded!<\/span><\/p>\n On the CAP OPTIMIST project, I have a double hat since I co-created the association with St\u00e9phanie whom I have managed for 5 years and since 3 years as Expedition Leader. I am also in charge of the management and supervision<\/span>of about thirty people who work on this global project, volunteers, employees, service providers.<\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n I have a role of conductor to make sure that all the commissions are going well, and that we are ready (by putting ourselves in the red from time to time) for the big departure.

I try to be visionary to anticipate, frame and make sure that the missions get done, with a little pressure from time to time \ud83d\ude09<\/span><\/p>\n I juggle between my job as expedition leader, the support of the association HOPE TEAM EAST<\/a> in its structuring, the missions with the few clients I have kept such as the Fondation de France, the management of a coworking space in volunteers but also my role as a mother and wife that I try not to abandon! And also do a little sport to breathe, recharge the batteries.<\/span><\/p>\n This is my main struggle: to<\/strong> help others, especially the vulnerable. Hence the creation of this association. I’ve seen my mom struggle so much with illness for years, seeing her strong but fragile and vulnerable at the same time, that I made it a struggle. She has just left, I am sure she will continue to give me the strength to fight this battle. <\/span><\/span><\/p>\n It’s both mixing what drives me; sport, and helping others, trying to give them strength again, the desire to believe in themselves because the disease can destroy.<\/span><\/p>\n [\/et_pb_text][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” custom_margin=”-40px|auto||auto||” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_image src=”https:\/\/www.capoptimist.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2022\/10\/DSC_3039.jpg” title_text=”DSC_3039″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][\/et_pb_image][\/et_pb_column][\/et_pb_row][et_pb_row _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” min_height=”476.2px” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_column type=”4_4″ _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”][et_pb_text _builder_version=”4.18.0″ _module_preset=”default” global_colors_info=”{}”]<\/p>\n My biggest professional fear<\/strong>… I think it’s disappointing!
