Du gym au musée

S2 E35
·
2023

A former personal trainer now has one of her works on display in a museum. Nadia Lloyd went through a long slump when she decided to sell her gym. A woman of action, she started painting to take her mind off things. With no previous experience, she developed a new passion that gradually turned into a business project. In fact, her art has found a front-row seat for the COVID-19 pandemic and the 2020 NBA playoffs.
