✈️ When the dream falls, but the spirit rises
Loïc Blaise always dreamed of flying.
And he did. A rising star in private aviation, his career was soaring — until a life-altering diagnosis of multiple sclerosis grounded him permanently.
His world collapsed. His wings clipped.
But Loïc refused to surrender.
“There is no fate unless we give up.”
Instead of letting the illness define him, he reimagined his mission.
In 2018, he launched Polar Kid and completed the first circumnavigation of the Arctic Circle, alongside cosmonaut Valery Tokarev — over 25,000 km across 3 oceans and continents.
He turned personal pain into planetary purpose:
- Founder of the Léonard Fund
- Cofounder of Lofe Odyssey
- Ambassador for the Antoine de Saint-Exupéry Foundation
Loïc still flies. Not as a pilot in command, but as a soul guiding others.
🕊️ Sometimes, losing your wings teaches you how to rise without them.
And for anyone who’s been grounded too soon — remember:
🪶 Every fall has a rise. Every struggle has a story.
