The Journal of the 6 Inner Islands
A practical guide inspired by neuroscience, with exercises and tests to better understand yourself, make choices, and take action.
Transform Your Professional and Personal Life
What if your professional life were like a journey at sea? You move forward, adapt, and get a lot done… but all too often, autopilot takes over. You may be efficient and highly capable, yet gradually drift away from what truly matters: your deepest motivations, your sources of energy, and the course you genuinely want to chart for yourself.

Philippe Crevoisier
The humanist strategist
A former executive at international companies including SEB, Kenwood, and Ariete, Philippe Crevoisier has built his career by combining strategic thinking with a deep understanding of human dynamics.
Through thousands of conversations and years of hands-on experience, he has developed a simple conviction: a more fulfilling and coherent life begins when intention is translated into action, and when we learn to align what we feel with the decisions we make.
This philosophy runs through his two books, designed as complementary gateways to personal growth.
In Living to the Power of 2, co-authored with Aurore Robin, he offers a practical approach to moving forward, restoring balance between emotion and logic, and turning ideas into action.
In Become Who You Are, written with Nicole Laugel, he takes this journey further by drawing on neuroscience and philosophy to explore how the brain shapes our choices, how cognitive biases influence our decisions, and how neuroplasticity creates opportunities for lasting transformation.
Two books, one guiding principle: take the helm of your life and become the author of your own journey.
Edith Depond
A former customs officer, Edith decided to strike out on her own in 2017. Naturally curious, she became deeply interested in personal and professional development, driven by a desire to help people who had lost their sense of direction. This led her to become a career development consultant. Her diverse background bridges organizational expertise, human-centered support, innovation, and the design of original methodologies.
After years of structuring and managing complex projects, she specialized in career development with one core belief: everyone has the potential to grow—provided they know where to focus their energy. Passionate about neuroscience and travel, Edith designs learning experiences that combine reflection, experimentation, and perspective.
She enjoys turning complexity into clear pathways and uncertainty into opportunities for exploration. Through her projects and writing, she encourages people to rethink their relationship with work, learning, and change—with rigor, humanity, and a touch of wit.
A collaboration built around real-life case studies
When Philippe’s analytical rigor meets Edith’s thoughtful and pragmatic approach, a complementary collaboration emerges around a shared goal: making change tangible and accessible.
In this new essay, they enrich their reflections with real-life case studies that bring concepts to life and make it easier to move from understanding to action. Each situation becomes an opportunity to experiment, adapt, and make the proposed tools one’s own.
A book designed as a living guide, where inner exploration is supported by concrete examples to help everyone move forward, step by step, with greater clarity and alignment.
