DNA professional evolution

For The Offbeat Conversations, Audrey Lessard met with Elsie Côté: founder of Sirote-moi inc., single mother, former nurse, speaker. A woman living with three rare diseases and a neurodivergence diagnosed in adulthood. A conversation about inhabiting one's life, about the personas we invent for ourselves when life hits hard, about the weight of a voice that becomes necessary, and about the moment we finally allow ourselves to take our place under our own name.

Offbeat Conversations is the series that gives voice to professionals with unconventional paths. This month: Annie Comtois, conscious voice coach, who guides heart-centered leaders to release their voice of impact. A portrait on voice, presence and the art of fully owning who you are.

Through the Offbeat Conversations, Audrey Lessard meets the person behind the journey. In this article, Marc-Olivier Beaulieu shares a path shaped by academic perseverance, writing, and a master's degree in career counseling.
