Welcome!
Echoing Gaia is a space where we share the experience of being human without hiding from emotions and complexity, and we strive to have honest conversations that reconnect with our shared humanity.
Hi, I’m Mathilde
I’m from Switzerland, an overthinker and traveler with no idea where life is taking me.
As a kid, I felt lonely with my boiling emotions, often torn between what my gut and my brain argued. I hid in my bedroom to write and disappear into the pages. It took a breakup, many years of therapy, countless journals, and a PhD in Neurosciences to grow into my emotional, sensitive self and see it as a strength instead of naivety. And so Echoing Gaia was born, a space where research meets intuition, curiosity fuels reflections, and writing uncovers reality. A collection of moments to explore our shared humanity.
Inspired by my travels and nourished by the discussion started on the road, I believe writing is an intimate and intuitive process, one that unravels personal and collective truths.
I hope you find a piece of yourself, or a seed for thoughts, in the mundane moments I share.
