The breast cancer charity has become a model in Monaco. Behind the scenes at Pink Ribbon is a sensitive woman with a big heart.<\/strong><\/p>\n\n

She’s hard-working, brave and spontaneous. At age 51, Natasha is proud of the woman she has become. \u201cSometimes I get imposter syndrome, I wonder how I got here. But when I look at all I’ve managed to achieve through my determination, I’m very happy,” <\/i>she says, rather pensively. Coming from a blended family, her childhood was spent between London and Monaco. Even as a child she was altruistic, and helping others has always been part of her who she is.<\/p>\n\n

It was when she moved to California to pursue her studies that her charitable leanings grew even more. From community service to awareness-raising walks, her eyes sparkle with admiration when she speaks of the benevolence she encountered among American women: “Over there, people fought together for the same cause.\u00a0 I had to bring this feeling of brotherhood and female solidarity back home, to Monaco.\u201d \u00a0<\/i>Upon her return to the Principality, the young woman was sure she had found her vocation.<\/p>\n\n

A surprising personality<\/h2>\n\n

Before Pink Ribbon, Natasha’s first passion kept her busy for a long time. Drinks! In addition to her humanitarian activities, the young woman earned pocket money tending bar. The party world gradually became a big part of her life. It was a perfect universe for Natasha, with her boundless energy. <\/p>\n\n

After a while, however, she realised that nightlife was no longer fulfilling enough for her. She went from serving to creating.\u00a0\u201cWe were the brains behind the Blue Coast craft brewery in Nice, which still exists today. I also had the honour of working with the racing driver Valtteri Bottas,\u201d<\/i>\u00a0the Monegasque resident says with a smile.<\/p>\n\n

Her perseverance goes hand in hand with a strong character: “If I could go back in time, perhaps I would be a bit more mellow, I sometimes regret not being a little less uncompromising with others when I was young.”<\/i>\u00a0 Tough but caring, the founder of Pink Ribbon never goes unnoticed.<\/p>\n

Brought up in a modern and progressive family, Natasha has always wanted to change the world. If she had a magic wand, she would certainly use it wisely. She was impacted by her grandmother’s breast cancer, a disease that she says “affects everyone.”<\/i>\u00a0Her determination to develop cancer prevention<\/a> began when she realised the lack of information about it.\u00a0“Everything was focused on curing it, but there was nothing about early awareness,” <\/i>she says, ruefully. “Once a year, I go for a smear test. Once a year, I’m going to get tested… It should be natural, it needs to become a reflex for all women,” <\/i>she continues.<\/p>\n\n

Her aim is to get rid of taboos and dispel the fear of screening, a fear she considers too prevalent at present. It’s a mission that is close to her heart in the most important place in her life: “I wanted to put into practice what I learned in the United States, and Monaco is the best place for this kind of initiative. All the world’s communities come together here. That’s what I think is wonderful.”<\/i><\/p>\n\n
