About this Event
Real Talk. Real Stories. Real Connection.
Le Goûter (pronounced "goo-TAY" - rhymes with “hooray”) is Flyberry’s editorial platform and live conversation series.
Hosted by Ally Potel, a creative producer and event curator from Paris and based in Vancouver, this intimate series invites guests and audiences into honest, heart-opening dialogue.
Each episode brings two guests to the couch to share stories we don’t usually tell at work or on social media, stories about identity, ambition, reinvention, and the moments that quietly change us. We record in front of a small group of guests (10-30 guests) and after the conversation, we stay for a little while, reflect, and talk.
This isn’t a panel. It’s not a performance. It’s an invitation to be part of something honest and human.
🎙 The Episode
"Starting Over: When Your Experience Doesn’t Count"
You spent years building your career, developing skills, gaining experience, and becoming good at what you do. Then one day, you find yourself in a place where none of it seems to count.
Maybe you moved to a new country. Maybe you changed industries. Maybe the system simply doesn’t recognize the path you’ve already walked.
Starting over can be exciting but it can also be humbling, frustrating, and deeply disorienting.
In this episode of Le Goûter, we explore what it really means to rebuild from zero when you know you’re not starting from zero. How do you stay confident when doors that once opened easily suddenly close? How do you reclaim your value when the world doesn’t immediately see it?
Our guests will share their journeys of navigating unfamiliar systems, rebuilding careers, and redefining success in a new environment.
If you’ve ever felt like your experience was invisible, this conversation will speak to you.
Join us for an honest discussion about resilience, reinvention, and finding your place again.
