Marie Sommier

Philosopher - Speaker - Author

What if we took the time to think, gain perspective, and change our viewpoint? Philosophy is often relegated to an intellectual exercise, reserved for academics or academic circles... However, to philosophize is primarily a process, a path that enlightens and guides those who act. — Marie Sommier holds a doctorate in philosophy. A specialist in practical philosophy, she puts thought at the service of action. Concepts become levers for understanding, interpreting, and also deciding. When she discovers philosophy as a teenager, Marie is amazed: finally, a discipline that addresses the existential questions that have always crossed her mind and that she has never dared to express... Her love for philosophy leads her to pursue this academic path after a course in khâgne/hypokhâgne. She turns to the philosophy of science, particularly the philosophy of medicine. Thus, she chooses to study the diagnosis of autism as her thesis subject. It is indeed in the hallways of hospitals and diagnostic centers that you might have encountered Marie at that time: far from the philosopher who thinks and analyzes from her ivory tower, Marie believes in a philosophy that works on the ground, directly confronting reality. Upon completing her thesis, she publishes "A Philosopher Meets Autism" with the Éditions Universitaires de Bourgogne, a summary of her research, an investigation into diagnostic practices. Convinced that philosophy must extricate itself from the university benches, she bets on entrepreneurship. She works with professional organizations to offer spaces for thought: an invitation to wonder, curiosity, and awakening. Creator of the podcast "En Puissance", Marie offers digital content to help everyone navigate and advance in their daily lives with greater discernment. — If you are looking for depth, perspective, and a change of viewpoint, she is the speaker you need to open new horizons...
