Françoise Gaudet-Smet appears as a woman of paradox, rooted in tradition, and nonetheless looking forward to modernity. At first a journalist, writer, public speaker, she founded her own magazine, Paysana (1938), intended for countrywomen of the Province of Québec. In addition, she worked as a radio and television host, providing women with simple solutions to everyday problems. Known for her sensible approach to things, she values craftsmanship as a means of artistic fulfilment as well as economic growth, encourages women to educate themselves, create their own happiness and cultivate self-confidence. Close to her own rural roots, she traveled worldwide, and found Sweden particularly inspiring.
