Spoke at the 40 Women Forbes ceremony at the Peninsula in Paris. It was an honor to share space with so many brilliant, powerful women, each building, creating, dreaming, and pushing forward in ways that inspire. I humbly shared my journey as an athlete, and everything I’ve been trying to do to shift the way we see female athletes. Not just through performance, but through their stories, their complexities, their strength, their visibility. To advocate for more recognition, different narratives, and a broader imagination around who they are and who we can all become. Thank you @palomaximum for walking this with me and making it possible. And thank you to the @forbes_fr team for the invitation and the care. Lately, I’ve been thinking a lot about what it means to build what I’ve never seen around me. To create spaces, stories, and images that light the way when things get hard. To draw strength from women who strive and resist in a world that often makes it hard to just be. Grateful to walk among them. And to keep going.

behind the scenes with @lacoste 🐊✨ it was such a fun shoot with an amazing team. entering this season with a lot of gratitude.

Grateful for these days at my first training camp of the season in Pisa. Fencing with a free mind again. Learning, working for progress, and feeling my body find its rhythm. I’d missed taking a lesson with Maestro Giulio Tomassini and train with fearless young fencers. Thank you @projectfencing for having me, and to @_filippo.macchi_ and @giulia.amore for the warm welcome. And thank you to everyone who sent kind messages saying they were happy to see me back on the strip. Exciting things ahead. Getting ready for the season.
