Question: What’s a great way to age gracefully?
Answer: Embrace excellent eating habits, nurture loving relationships, and embark on frequent travels.
Question: When you mention ‘frequent travels,’ can you tell us what fascinates you about the places you visit or where you have a home?
Answer: Certainly!

In Florida: Palm Beach is famous for its high-end shopping and exclusive resorts. Sanibel Islands is known for its pristine beaches and a serene atmosphere.
Question: Speaking of shopping, could you share an event where you will flaunt your fanciest attire soon? Conversely, can you recount a time when your outfit choice left you less than thrilled?
Answer: Of course !
To answer your first question, I’m eagerly awaiting a familial gathering in Europe a few months from now, where I’ll proudly wear my pink and white Dior dress. It’s my very first Dior piece! The choice of shoes remains a matter of debate. In response to your second question, I distinctly remember a professional photoshoot in Vancouver where I showed up with a simple dance-looking outfit. Fortunately, my husband and I were so joyful that everything turned out perfectly. And my yellow gold necklace adorned with a butterfly stood out nicely!
Question: Have your ‘excellent eating habits’ influenced your professional life in any way?
Answer: Certainly, they have! For instance, eating fruits and drinking matcha helps keep me energized throughout the day. In general, a well-balanced lifestyle enhances my happiness and positively impacts all aspects of my life.
Question: Regarding your previous mention of ‘loving relationships’, what principles do you keep in mind?
Answer: I strive to remember the understanding that human connections can be delicate and require an open-minded perspective to thrive.
Question: Expanding on your ‘open-minded’ response, could you share three quotes that you like at this moment?
Answer: Yes!
“True friendship can exist only between equals.” – Plato
“Everything around you that you call life was made up by people that were no smarter than you. And you can change it, you can influence it.” – Steve Jobs
“Nothing is impossible. The word itself says ‘I’m possible!” – Audrey Hepburn
Question: Any quotes from the glamorous music industry you started your entrepreneurial journey in?
Answer: Not at the moment.
Question: Is there something you are currently contemplating and feel certain about?
Answer: Imparting our heritage to our future children and nurturing their innate curiosity. People will see them as individuals who grow, develop passions, and carry an enduring heritage.
Question: And what about ideas you’re contemplating but remain uncertain about?
Answer: Firstly, considering having more than one child. Secondly, listening to my grandma’s ongoing aspirations about me releasing a book. While I am uncertain about this project, I believe my future child might inherit the inclination. Thirdly, deciding on a restaurant for dinner for this beautiful October evening in 2023. Farm-to-table eatery? Italian trattoria? Vegan cafe? Sushi bar?
Question: Speaking of books, could you share the title of a book that you’ve recently enjoyed?
Answer: I recently read a book about the ocean, although I can’t recall the title offhand. However, I highly recommend “The Sleep Revolution” by Arianna Huffington.
Question: With your high proficiency in both English and French, do you envision yourself acquiring proficiency in another language? Alternatively, do you foresee not embarking on another linguistic journey?
Answer: I may consider revisiting Italian one day, as I’ve always had an affection for the language. However, I don’t foresee dedicating time to learn Japanese for instance, as my schedule is already quite packed. It takes time to master languages and maintain them; time will tell.
Question: In your current perspective, how do you define luxury?
Answer: Luxury, for me at this moment, is savoring sweet moments by a pristine beach, with the soothing sound of the waves as the perfect backdrop.
More than a pretty face and words of wisdom, a bright future filled with a busy schedule and lots of quality family time awaits Mylène. Her website is mylenebesancon.com Business, wealth, wellness, travel, happiness, and much more define what we can call ‘Mylène’s world’.
