But this job also gave him the opportunity “to be in contact with young people” and to learn from them: “I connect a lot with my son because it is the generation closest to him.

The little one became her great joy and, even if she rarely spoke about him, she confided in the difficulties of reconciling motherhood and work. “It’s very complicated because, If you want to achieve everything and do it well, it’s difficult.

For the presenter of the Tombola, the most difficult thing was do it without the possibility of turning to family in case of need: “We don’t have grandparents, uncles or a close family network who can help us or give us a helping hand. It costs me dearly. You have to find the balance and it’s not always easy“.
