Esther Perel

"Hearing stories is the most rewarding part of developing a card game. It is what fuels me."

Making connections is at heart of Esther Perel's storytelling card game. Born and raised in Antwerp, Belgium, she's spent most of her life as a psychotherapist, incorporating the arts into her practice. She developed her game during the pandemic, and she realized while play-testing it that it helped massage those social muscles that lockdown had atrophied. "Stories are the bridges that connect us to others," she says.
