Lucie Retail - Speaker on resilience
Resilience: the art of turning your back on probability
Life pushes me early on to travel around the world. I quickly develop a great curiosity for humanity, its emotions, its experiences, its strategies. I then feel constrained by beliefs and powerful mechanisms whose source and manual I cannot see. Something is not free. I then embark on a quest that will lead me to seek outside of myself, until life teaches me.
- After spending 40 years trying to control my existence, I find myself in a hospital bed, freshly amputated from my feet and hands. I see my deepest fears engulfing me, and my most stubborn beliefs exploding. What then appeared as a cataclysm will ultimately be the awakening I have always awaited. Two years later, I become the first quadruple amputee to reach the summit of Mount Fuji.
What if we finally learned that it is behind the veil of experience, behind the temptation to prejudge the setting, in surrender and total trust at the heart of every situation, that elevation lies, the gift of inner transformation? How to look at the limits we believe we have, how to embody the power we are in our choices of perception regarding the unfolding of events… Turning our back on probability means refusing to look through the keyhole of fear or logic. Life scoffs at preconceived ideas, it escapes all rules. By choosing to embrace the impossible, it brings forth the unexpected. And to manifest to us, it only waits for one thing: it must first be our choice.

I never thought I would do this job. It was not in my little personal plan. Following what is called my "life accident" which I now qualify as an initiatory trial, I let go of all my preconceived ideas and all desires to decide for myself. Life came to seek me for this job.
Why book Lucie Retail rather than another speaker?

Through my journey and the prompts I direct towards them, they can revisit their past experiences, learn to differentiate between the voice of their mind and that of their inner fire, and share the joy of laughter that this essential type of subject implies.

What concrete results can the audience expect after a talk by Lucie Retail?
An awakening of the inner fire, of inspiration, sometimes without being able to explain it. And concrete keys for the continuation of existence.
