A Human Approach to Supporting Women Through Life Transitions
Our Why
The Heart behind Notes de copines
Transitions are part of life, but no woman should have to face them alone.
We all go through moments of change that shape who we are and how we move forward.
Some are chosen: a new beginning, motherhood, a career shift, a search for meaning.
Others are imposed: a separation, a loss, a body that evolves.
Some lift us. Others shake us.
But every transition transforms us.
And yet, most of us navigate these moments quietly, on our own, without daring to say that even positive change can be hard.
But what if these moments, even the hardest ones, could become chances to realign and find new momentum?
At Notes de Copines, we believe in the power of connection, the strength of shared experience, and the clarity that comes from real, human support.
Because together, we move differently, with more meaning, confidence, and gentleness toward ourselves.
We combine compassion and structure to help women regain clarity fast, and move forward with confidence and community.
Our Story
Two Friends, One Mission
We’ve been friends for over 25 years.
Two lives shaped on different continents, two stories shaped by different transitions, but always connected by trust, honesty, and those late-night conversations that make the world feel lighter.
Through the years, our calls became our lifeline:
the place where we broke things down, put words on what hurt, and found clarity in the middle of confusion.
Again and again, we realized something powerful:
If sharing our truths could help us rebuild ourselves, imagine how many women could move forward if they had the same space.
This became the seed of Notes de Copines, a space built from friendship, lived experience, and the belief that women deserve support that is warm, practical, and deeply human.
We don't pretend to have all the answers.
But we know how to help you find yours, with clarity, compassion, and simple steps that make sense for your life.
Who We Are
Virginie Clabiorne
Strategy, clarity, and grounded action
Virginie brings a strategic and structuring presence shaped by over 17 years of international experience in the corporate and luxury worlds, between Paris, New York, and Miami. Accustomed to navigating complex environments, she has a rare ability to translate vision into clear, grounded action.
She is also a mother of two young children, an experience that deeply reshaped her relationship to time, priorities, and balance. Like many women, motherhood became both a source of expansion and a catalyst for profound personal and professional realignment.
Her journey through major life transitions strengthened her clarity, perseverance, and pragmatism. Today, she helps women move from inner intuition to tangible next steps, without rushing or self-pressure.
Virginie brings structure where there is confusion, perspective where there is doubt, and calm where things feel overwhelming. Within Notes de Copines, she helps transform reflection into sustainable action, always with discernment, care, and humanity.
Priscilla Modlamootoo
Emotion, intuition, and the art of navigating complexity
Raised by a single father who never spoke French and carried his own struggles, Priscilla learned resilience, emotional depth, and courage very early in life. These foundations shaped her ability to face complexity head-on, not by avoiding it, but by transforming it.
She is a mother of four children, and her life path has been marked by intense transitions: illness, separation, family responsibilities, and professional reinvention. Where many might have remained stuck or diminished by these experiences, Priscilla chose, again and again, to meet adversity with inner strength, honesty, and movement.
With a background in HR and years of coaching practice, she combines structured tools, strong intuition, and rare emotional intelligence. She has a unique ability to hold space for emotions without letting them take over, helping women find clarity even in moments that feel overwhelming.
Her approach is deeply human, sometimes confronting, always kind, and rooted in the belief that growth can emerge even from the hardest chapters. Within Notes de Copines, she embodies the emotional and relational heart of the project.

A note from us
We built this space the way we wish it existed for us,
with truth, tenderness, and the courage to speak out loud what so many women keep inside.
If you’re here, it’s not by accident.
You’re exactly where you need to be.
At Notes de Copines, we believe it’s not what we go through that defines us, but the way we choose to move through it.
