This is what I pack for every trip, from a weekend away to a long journey. I am a highly sensitive person, so I choose items that are practical, comfortable and easy to organize. You will find my travel bags and accessories, my skincare, my makeup and fragrance, and the tech I use to work and read on the road. Each item is here because I use it and I trust it. I have not added everything yet, and I will update the list with the rest as soon as I have time. I hope this packing list helps you travel with less stress and more calm.

I'm European, but I come from another country in Europe, and building my business in France from zero wasn't simple. I didn't know where to start or who to ask, and French administration is a language of its own even before you factor in the actual language. That's why I created this list of resources for expats building a business in France, to give anyone thinking of moving here and working for themselves the foundation I had to find on my own. The tools, sites and people that made French business admin easier instead of harder. I keep adding to it as I find something worth sharing.

I'm a Highly Sensitive Person running my own therapy practice and other parallel businesses, and over time I've built a toolkit of tools, apps, and software that help me run things without burning out. This list gathers what I rely on daily for scheduling, communication, content, and organization behind the scenes. Some are HSP-specific, others are simply good tools that respect my energy and pace. If you're an HSP entrepreneur looking for calmer, more sustainable ways to run your business, I hope this helps. 🌟 I update this list often, so save it and come back.

I’m a Highly Sensitive Person and a therapist for HSPs who feel overwhelmed. I work with people facing anxiety, trauma, burnout, people-pleasing, low self-worth, and emotional overload. This space gathers the tools I use in my own life and with my clients. Simple, grounding, and realistic. Each idea comes from lived experience and therapeutic work. Some will fit you. Some won’t. That’s normal. Your needs shift. Your sensitivity is unique. Try. Notice. Keep what supports you. If you have a question, I’m here. 🌟 P.S. If you’re not HSP but love someone who is sensitive or empathic, this can give you thoughtful gift ideas. 🌟 P.S. I update this list often. Save it and come back.
