Chapitre 1

The Pursuit of Happiness Is a Misguided Quest

What if everything you've been told about happiness is wrong? Steven Bartlett was just 18 when he scribbled in his diary his ultimate goals: become a millionaire by 25, own a Range Rover, maintain a relationship, and improve his body image. Essentially, he wanted to be a "happy, sexy millionaire." By 25, he had achieved it all-founding a social media marketing agency valued at $200 million, amassing wealth and millions of followers, and dating beautiful women. Yet he felt exactly the same as when he was stealing food as a broke teenager. This revelation forms the foundation of Bartlett's philosophy, which has resonated with readers worldwide, including celebrities like Lewis Hamilton and business leaders across Europe. Named one of Forbes' 30 Under 30, Bartlett's insights challenge conventional wisdom about success in a digital age where comparison culture has reached toxic levels. His book has become required reading in business schools across the UK, with its central message: happiness isn't something to be pursued-it's already within us, if only we'd stop looking elsewhere.

Chapitre 2

The Illusion of Future Happiness

Growing up as a black kid in a poor family living in a middle-class English neighborhood, Steven faced constant embarrassment. His flamboyant African mother would sometimes pick him up from school in her underwear or spank him in front of his childhood crush. The family lived in a dilapidated house that Steven was too ashamed to let friends visit. He would slouch low in his father's run-down van, praying traffic lights would turn red far from school to avoid being seen. By age 12, Steven realized their lack of money caused both his social inadequacy and the screaming matches between his parents. By 14, he'd announced to friends he would become a millionaire, convinced money and success would make him happy and attractive. At 18, he left his small town with just 50, determined to become a "happy sexy millionaire." The irony of achievement hit Steven hard when he found his old diary at 25 and saw he'd achieved all his goals ahead of schedule. Where was the euphoria that 18-year-old Steve had promised 25-year-old millionaire Steve? The movies, Instagram influencers, and celebrity culture had all lied. The life-changing truth was that he had always been happy-when broke and when wealthy, when single and when not, when he had no followers and when he had millions. His beliefs about happiness being something in the future had prevented him from recognizing it was already present. "I was a victim of media narratives and social conventions that lead down a miserable path," Steven explains. "This is my desperate plea to our attentionless, pleasure-chasing generation obsessed with instant gratification-we have more information than any generation in history yet seem further from the right answers than ever before."

Chapitre 3

The Infinite Game of Life

There are two types of games in life: finite games played to win and end (like football or poker), and infinite games designed to continue play and bring in more players. Life is the only infinite game, but most of us treat it as finite. Steven viewed happiness as something to "win" by accumulating points on an imaginary scoreboard of success, wealth, fame, and accomplishment. But you can't "win" at happiness when the only end to the game is death. Happiness is an infinite game-you can only "be" it until you're no longer in the game. No confetti rains down no matter how rich you get, no podium appears regardless of success. The great paradox of happiness is that you must call off the search to find what you've been searching for. According to transformational therapist Marisa Peer, most people-from movie stars to Olympic athletes to drug addicts-share the same problem: they don't believe they're enough. When someone knows they're enough, they don't become complacent-quite the opposite. Recognizing your worth drives you to strive for even greater things. It's the difference between feeling you need something to satisfy an insecurity versus feeling you deserve something based on your self-worth and ability. Until you abandon the idea that happiness exists somewhere else-in a new relationship, promotion, dress size, or sports car-it will never be where you are. As philosopher Lao Tzu noted, "a good traveller has no fixed plans and is not intent on arriving." The terrifying yet liberating truth is that you are already enough.

Chapitre 4

The Comparison Trap That Ruins Everything

Our brains are wired to make decisions through comparison, which served us well for survival but destroys our happiness in the modern world. We attribute value to things based on context rather than inherent worth, making us vulnerable to feeling inadequate in today's comparison-driven society. Scientific studies show our choices change based on context-like how we'll drive to save $10 on a $20 jacket but not on a $200 one, though the value of $10 remains constant. Nothing has intrinsic value without context. This comparison-oriented decision-making that once saved us from predators now makes us perpetually dissatisfied. When Steven grew up poor in a middle-class neighborhood, he felt inferior because his brain contrasted his circumstances with those around him. Had he remained in his birthplace-a poor village in Botswana where his family would have been at the top of the social ladder-he'd have felt entirely different about himself. Following celebrities like Kylie Jenner, who broadcasts her seemingly perfect filtered life to hundreds of millions of young followers, creates a destructive mental cost. When ordinary people compare themselves to these unrealistic standards, they inevitably feel inadequate. At just 18, Kylie tattooed "sanity" on her hip because she felt she "was going insane"-becoming both perpetrator and victim of the toxic comparison culture she helps create. The solution? "Unfollow, block and mute" toxic influences both online and offline to create a "smaller, healthier and more real" context for your life. In our abundant Western society with social media, this comparison drive leads to misery, mental health issues, and rising suicide rates among young people.

Chapitre 5

The Gratitude Revolution

At 18, Steven was homeless, hungry, and scavenging for food, once ecstatically finding 13.40 in coins behind takeaway seats. Years later, when his company was listed on the stock market at $200 million, making him one of the UK's richest under-30s, he felt absolutely nothing-no joy, no excitement, just emptiness. Only when a Kendrick Lamar song transported him back to his darkest days did gratitude finally flood in, bringing tears and euphoria as he remembered walking those same streets dreaming of a better life. This powerful moment revealed that gratitude doesn't appear automatically-we must consciously invite it into our lives. Our satisfaction depends on two questions: Am I doing better than before? And am I doing better than others? When qualities like being a good parent or partner are hard to measure, we turn to easily quantifiable metrics like money, followers, or possessions. This comparison trap has no endpoint. Harvard research shows millionaires consistently believe they need 2-3 times their current wealth to achieve perfect happiness, regardless of how much they already have. The feeling of being rich isn't about fulfilling childhood dreams; it's about comparison with your reference group-which keeps shifting as your wealth grows. Maslow's hierarchy of needs explains why finding 13.40 at 18 felt more rewarding than making millions at 26. At 18, that money met Steven's basic survival needs-the foundation of Maslow's pyramid. By 26, he was already financially free, so additional millions did nothing for his happiness. Research from Purdue University confirms this-once we reach about $72,500 annual income, more money tends to reduce life satisfaction. After realizing material wealth wasn't delivering happiness, Steven developed a simple gratitude practice-writing one thing he's grateful for each morning and night. Despite his natural skepticism toward "airy-fairy personal development," this 20-second daily habit transformed his outlook, making everything and everyone in his life feel sweeter and more appreciated. Research in the Journal of Positive Psychology confirms gratitude journals decrease materialism while increasing charitable giving by 60%. This explains what we witnessed during the 2020 pandemic-as timelines filled with suffering, we made involuntary downward social comparisons, becoming more grateful for family, health, and life.

Chapitre 6

The Juggling Act of Life's Priorities

Nothing has damaged our generation's mental peace more than socially propagated fairy tales about how our lives are supposed to unfold. You're supposed to be married, have a mortgage, kids, a "real" job, savings, a car, a plan, a passion, and all the answers-and you're supposed to be happy. This narrative of a complete life has bypassed reasonable scrutiny to become the accepted standard for everyone. Fairy tales will mess up your life. Life is chaos in pursuit of happiness, but we've misunderstood this pursuit. We think striving creates chaos and accomplishment brings satisfaction, when the opposite is true. Achieving goals often leads to purposelessness, while the act of striving provides stability. The Stoics recognized our insatiable consumerism 2,500 years ago, calling it the "hedonic treadmill"-we acquire something, briefly enjoy it, take it for granted, then pursue something new. Like juggling, where physics limits humans to handling 14 balls maximum, life requires choosing which meaningful things to hold. The foolish attempt to juggle everything results in failure, while the chosen few become more valuable precisely because you sacrificed others for them. Steven loves waffles with all the toppings and would eat five daily if he could. But he also loves having abs, which society values because they represent discipline and sacrifice. These desires can't coexist-they're mutually exclusive, which is what makes each special. The value of anything lies partly in the story of what you gave up to have it. This principle extends to all areas of life-commitment to one partner is valuable precisely because you chose not to pursue others. Yet modern society has embraced gluttony over self-restraint. Americans now spend twice as much on consumer goods as in 2002, buy more shoes despite having the same number of feet, live in 23% larger homes to store their stuff, and millennials cheat more frequently on partners.

Chapitre 7

Breaking Free from Binary Thinking

Steven is sick of loaded, presumptive questions like "What's your passion?" and "Have you found your purpose?" These toxic questions broadcast through TED talks, influencers, and self-help books cause disproportionate anxiety and chronic overthinking. Just because you can ask a question doesn't make it valid. We are incredibly multifaceted beings-constructed from 7 billion atoms, 37 trillion cells, and millions of individual experiences. Any binary question seeking a yes or no answer fundamentally misunderstands human complexity. Society is slowly realizing things aren't binary-like sexuality and gender-but before this recognition, forcing people into simple boxes caused depression, anxiety, and suicide. These seemingly innocent questions about "passion," "purpose," and "soulmates" have caused more harm than good. Steven receives thousands of messages from people worried because they haven't "found their passion" or can't determine if they're "in love" with their "soulmate." These questions can make a perfectly happy person doubt themselves. Research shows that believing humans have a fixed "passion" harms motivation for everything outside that singular focus, and people with this mindset are more likely to quit when faced with difficulties. The truth is that people have multiple passions that evolve with age, wisdom, and experience. Western culture invented these concepts with toxic presumptions: that you have some predetermined, singular "passion" waiting to be discovered, and that when found, it will feel the same for you as for everyone else. There is no script for life. Marriage, 9-5 jobs, having kids-none of these are universally right for everyone. Steven's success and happiness came largely from resisting society's binary boxes and writing fresh rules for his life. With rising rates of depression, burnout, and anxiety, perhaps we need more unconventional thinking. When Steven asked hundreds of married people "what's the point in marriage?", most described achievements they admitted could happen without the legal contract. Marriage might increase happiness for some, but not for everyone. He's not anti-marriage, he's anti-marriage-for-everyone. He's been happiest in relationships with more freedom and less attachment. Love is a bespoke, personal experience, and how you build your relationship should be equally unique. Our happiness comes not from meeting society's expectations but from rejecting them and writing new rules based on our current world-which is vastly different from when these social blueprints were created. The hardest yet most important thing is becoming the author of your own script, written by your heart, not directed by society.

Chapitre 8

Creating a Meaningful Career

Research shows intrinsically motivating work makes people far happier than just a big paycheck. Yet the "find your passion" narrative falsely implies that once you discover it, success and fulfillment automatically follow. Steven reviewed over 60 studies on finding your "dream job" and found this to be complete nonsense. "Find your passion" sells well because simple answers to complex problems always do. After speaking to 10,000 people in Barcelona, someone asked for Steven's "top three secrets" to become a great public speaker within a year. He wanted shortcuts to achieve what took Steven a decade of hard work, failure, persistence, and timing. People who exercise patience and self-restraint toward worthwhile goals without seeking shortcuts ultimately attain more happiness and success. Social media has made perfection look so normal that "good" feels disposable. Creating a satisfying career isn't simple-it requires work and consists of five crucial elements that have been psychologically proven to increase satisfaction (and income isn't one of them). First, engaging work pulls you in and enchants you-it's why an hour of paperwork feels endless while an hour of gaming flies by. Researchers have identified four factors that make work engaging: freedom to decide how to perform your work, clearly defined tasks with distinct beginnings and ends, variety in types of tasks, and feedback so you know how well you're doing. Second, work that helps others provides the "helper's high"-producing endorphins similar to a mild morphine high. Studies show volunteers are less depressed and healthier, and those who help others most report satisfaction levels equal to those earning twice as much. Third, building "career capital"-skills, connections, qualifications, and resources-is crucial, especially when young. Successful people like Oprah and Elon Musk mastered one industry first, building reputation before branching out. Being good at your work provides achievement, which psychology confirms is central to life satisfaction. In our capitalistic world, skill trumps interest, so pursue work you have potential to excel at, not just what you love. Fourth, difficult people can ruin even the most meaningful job. Studies consistently show that supportive bosses and colleagues are perhaps the most important factor in job satisfaction. When selecting a job, consider whether you can befriend your colleagues and if the organizational culture seems supportive. The simple rule: don't work with jerks, and don't be one either. Finally, work-life harmony means finding your personal balance between chosen responsibilities (personal ambitions), basic needs (food, shelter), psychological-esteem needs (achievement, progress), and connection needs (family, relationships, friendships). There's no perfect allocation of hours to each need, but all needs must be met for true harmony.

Chapitre 9

The Journey Back to Human Connection

As Steven writes from an Indonesian jungle by a glistening river, he feels a profound sense of peace and tranquility-a feeling of belonging that his primitive senses recognize as "home." Soon he'll return to city life where he lives alone in a concrete box, spending up to 11 hours daily on illuminated screens, often ordering food delivery or swiping for potential partners. This modern existence stands in stark contrast to our ancestors who hunted in tribes 12,000 years ago. He questions how we've blindly accepted Silicon Valley's "optimization" that has stripped the humanity from our lives. Loneliness has reached epidemic levels in modern society. Nearly half of adults surveyed feel alone and lack meaningful daily interactions. One-fifth report having no one to talk to, with younger people ironically being the loneliest generation in history despite being the most "connected." This crisis prompted Britain to appoint a Minister for Loneliness, as isolation now ranks alongside obesity and smoking as health risks. Urban environments increase anxiety disorders by 21% and mood disorders by 39%. Our evolutionary superpower was tribal cooperation-we're the first humans to disband our tribes, and like isolated chimps and rats in studies, we're suffering profound psychological damage as a result. Steven was the ultimate self-isolation culprit, snubbing healthy social connections to build his companies. For years, he slept in his office, worked 16-hour days, and looked down on those with balanced lives. His success inspired his closest friends to adopt the same toxic hustle culture. After his friend Dom's breakdown revealed his secret alcoholism, and Anthony-his "toughest" friend-confessed to severe anxiety and depression, Steven took a hard look at himself. While he still believes in hard work, he realized they were working hard at the expense of their psychological needs-meaningful relationships, human connection, exercise, family, and love. They were "winning at everything that didn't matter and losing at everything that did." Now, all three are on what they call their "Journey Back to Human"-prioritizing socializing, emotional openness, exercise, nature, family, and love despite their busy professional lives.

Chapitre 10

The Art of Strategic Quitting

When Steven started writing his book, he was the 27-year-old CEO of Social Chain, a major social media company he founded at 20 after dropping out of university. Despite the company's success with 700 team members worldwide and $200 million in annual revenue, he resigned-a decision that bewildered many. But quitting has always come naturally to him, from leaving school at 16 to quitting university at 18 and now leaving his successful company. He's developed a mental framework for making these pivotal decisions that has never let him down. Contrary to popular cliches that "quitting is for losers," Steven believes quitting is a crucial life skill that winners master. His Quitting Framework guides him through these decisions: he doesn't quit because things are hard (difficulty often signals worthwhile challenges), but he does quit when things suck and he's lost faith they can improve or when the effort required exceeds the reward. When he announced his resignation, many asked about his next plan, revealing how the need for certainty prevents people from leaving toxic situations. He had no plan-just faith in himself and his decision rationale. While writing in a Costa Rican jungle treehouse, Steven observed spider monkeys swinging through trees-letting go of one branch before grabbing the next. This perfectly illustrates how embracing uncertainty enables forward movement. Human life isn't linear but a series of unexpected chapters requiring occasional leaps into uncertainty. Those who avoid uncertainty often find themselves trapped in miserable situations, while those who embrace it as the gap between current misery and potential happiness can find fulfillment. At 14, Steven watched Barack Obama win the 2008 election with tears of joy. Twelve years later, he spoke alongside him at a 15,000-capacity venue in Brazil. Obama shared his approach to decision-making: he only dealt with the truly difficult problems that nobody else could solve. His first step was accepting that perfect decisions don't exist-you're dealing with probabilities. Once he understood the challenge and had all available information, if he could get to 51% probability on a decision, he would make it and be at peace. Psychologist David Dunning notes that smart people think in probabilities while less intelligent people see the world in black and white. Overthinking stems from trying to make perfect decisions when perfection only exists in hindsight. A 51% decision is enough to move forward, learn from feedback, and progress faster. Waiting for 90-100% certainty breeds procrastination and missed opportunities.

Chapitre 11

The Eighth Wonder of the World: Compound Growth

After reaching one million Instagram followers, Steven received countless messages asking for growth tips. But rather than sharing quick hacks, he realized his success comes from one simple factor: consistency over time. Every major achievement in his life-from building a global business to gaining millions of followers-stems from this profound yet underrated principle. Warren Buffett calls compound interest the "Eighth Wonder of the World," and the same principle applies beyond finance. Steven demonstrates through simple examples how compounding works: investing $20,000 once with 15% annual returns eventually outperforms saving $20,000 annually for 30 years without interest. Similarly, starting early matters tremendously-investing for just the first ten years often beats investing for twenty years later on. His Instagram growth followed the same pattern: his first 800 posts gained 10,000 followers, while the next 800 added one million, showing the exponential power of compounding effort. Your reputation functions like compound interest-small, seemingly insignificant actions build stories in people's minds that determine how they treat you. As CEO of Social Chain, Steven witnessed how tiny actions compounded for or against team members. One designer who spontaneously helped an injured colleague created a positive story that influenced her promotion months later. Conversely, talented employees sometimes couldn't progress because of small negative actions that blemished their reputations. He calls this "Invisible PR"-you can't see it accumulating, but it shows up when it matters most. At 14, Steven bragged to his dentist about having perfect teeth despite rarely brushing them. His dentist warned him that skipping brushing for a day or two wouldn't matter, but neglecting it for five years would lead to painful extractions and drilling. This lesson about negative compounding took him a decade to truly understand. Just as consistent hard work builds unstoppable positive momentum over time, consistent neglect creates equally powerful negative consequences. The Grand Canyon wasn't carved by billions of gallons of water dumped at once, but by consistent water flow over millions of years. Success doesn't come from short bursts of intensity like crash diets or get-rich-quick schemes, but from small, sustainable changes maintained consistently over time. Most people need consistency more than intensity. The small things don't show immediate results, which is why people undervalue them, but success is the result of invisible compounding over long periods.

Chapitre 12

Gambling with Life's Finite Hours

We each have about 500,000 active hours in our lives (if we're lucky to live to 80), and these hours are fundamentally irreplaceable. We're all gamblers at life's roulette table, forced to place one chip every hour without ever getting it back. How we allocate these precious chips determines everything meaningful in our lives-our success, happiness, legacy, and wellbeing. Yet most people don't live as if they truly understand the finite nature of time. We avoid contemplating our mortality, acting as if death happens only to others. If you could visibly see your remaining time pouring through a sand timer that followed you everywhere, would you waste hours mindlessly scrolling social media or engaging in petty arguments? When people are dying, they achieve remarkable clarity about what truly mattered in life. Seeing your finite time would transform every decision into a conscious sacrifice. In our mental world of unlimited time, bad decisions seem inconsequential because we believe we can always correct them later. But with a visible sand timer, every choice represents irreversible time spent. Death cafes have emerged worldwide as spaces where people contemplate mortality over tea and cake. From ancient philosophers to Steve Jobs, wise minds have recognized that awareness of death brings clarity to life. Jobs called death "the single best invention of life" that propels us to follow our dreams. Marcus Aurelius advised living each day as if it were your last, while Seneca lamented how much time we waste. The cliche of "living every day as if it were your last" isn't about making destructive short-term decisions, but about understanding the scarcity of time and treating it accordingly. The key to using your finite time wisely starts with clarifying your intrinsic values-what you're willing to sacrifice everything for. Interrogate these values relentlessly to ensure they're truly yours. Whether it's mastering a skill, creating freedom, being a great parent, or simply playing video games-all are equally valid if they're genuinely what you value. Cross-examine your decisions against these values by asking, "How would the person I want to become spend their time?" Like placing chips on a roulette table, your goal is to bet on furthering these values every day. Looking back at his 18-year-old self who scribbled down dreams of being a millionaire with a Range Rover who could attract beautiful women, Steven reflects on achieving exactly what he thought would bring happiness. After becoming a multi-millionaire, buying his dream car, dating beautiful women, and sculpting his body, he became the "sexy millionaire" he aspired to be. Yet surprisingly, relative to how he felt during his toughest moments-stealing pizzas and fighting for somewhere to live-he doesn't feel fundamentally different now, contrary to what social conditioning promised him. The seeming contradiction-feeling you're already enough while striving to be more-is actually based on societal myths. The truth is you never become "more" or "superior" in any intrinsic sense. Your life doesn't have fluctuating levels of inherent value despite what social media, pop culture, and advertising suggest. Real ambition isn't based on the desire to be "more" than you are-that's just insecure pursuit of external validation. Genuine ambition is about what honestly matters to you, not about likes, followers, or comments. Paradoxically, it's the feeling of inadequacy that drives pursuit of false external goals, while realizing you're enough creates authentic motivation to pursue what truly matters for your own fulfillment and enjoyment. The real breakthrough comes when you realize nothing was actually broken-you were always enough. Calling off the search for happiness is what makes you happiest, and realizing you're already enough opens the door to genuine gratitude.

Franchement, je n'ai pas encore exploré toute l'app, mais après quelques jours d'utilisation, je suis bluffée… BeFreed est à un tout autre niveau que toutes les autres apps d'apprentissage que j'ai essayées. C'est ultra captivant et ça améliore vraiment la concentration — parfait pour tous les accros au scroll !

@ladyInfinity

J'ai acheté BeFreed il y a exactement 23 jours et je l'ai utilisée chaque jour depuis. Elle s'est complètement intégrée à mon quotidien de travail et à mes habitudes d'apprentissage.

@jayallen

La vérité, c'est que l'app a dépassé toutes mes attentes. Je peux lui demander de générer de l'audio sur n'importe quel sujet, quel qu'il soit, et le résultat est impressionnant. Mon domaine professionnel est une spécialisation en psychothérapie, très pluridisciplinaire ; pourtant, les réponses sont très justes.

@Raguipa

Ce que j'apprécie le plus, c'est à quel point ça a réduit mon temps de scroll : je passe moins de temps à chercher et plus de temps à retenir. La combinaison des livres audio complets, des podcasts et des plans d'apprentissage est brillante.

@colonyofcreatorsNGO

Je suis instructeur en apprentissage accéléré PhotoReading depuis 24 ans… les livres, la lecture et l'apprentissage, c'est mon domaine, et BeFreed a fait un excellent travail en proposant une approche innovante pour transmettre l'information de façon facile à assimiler.

@BeFreed user

Ce n'est pas qu'une app de résumés de livres : j'ai utilisé l'option de lecture fun et c'est un bien meilleur résumé, une meilleure façon de saisir les idées qu'à la manière traditionnelle. Rien que ça vaut le coup.

@austinakon

J'adore cette app. Je l'utilise depuis plusieurs jours et je ne peux plus m'arrêter d'écouter. Une excellente façon de commencer.

@jcrules328

J'aime beaucoup ce programme ; je le teste depuis environ un mois et c'est une vraie pépite. Ça marche très bien parce que je peux utiliser BeFreed pour créer mes propres sujets, et la voix est excellente, avec un choix illimité de narrations.

@DanielCZ

J'adore pouvoir obtenir des informations et des idées utiles et condensées dans un audio façon podcast de 8 à 15 minutes. Je ne suis pas fan des podcasts à cause de tout le remplissage, mais là, on va droit à l'essentiel.

@BeFreed user

Je termine mon doctorat et je dois lire beaucoup de contenus que je ne connais pas… Avec BeFreed, il suffit d'entrer un prompt : l'app trouve les sources pour vous et génère un podcast audio. Je trouve le processus de BeFreed plus fluide que celui de NotebookLM.

@Brad

Je cherche souvent sur YouTube quelque chose à écouter en préparant le petit-déjeuner, en marchant ou dans les transports, et BeFreed offre une approche encore plus ciblée, sans pubs et sans remplissage !

@BeFreed user

Le meilleur atout de cette plateforme, c'est sa polyvalence. Il n'y a littéralement aucun sujet hors de portée. Elle gère tout ce qu'on lui donne… Il est rare de trouver un outil d'apprentissage sans aucune limite qui tient vraiment ses promesses.

@jayallen

BeFreed est fantastique. Son design intuitif me fait passer moins de temps à naviguer et plus de temps à apprendre. Le mélange de livres audio, de podcasts et de plans d'apprentissage est une combinaison géniale qui a complètement changé ma routine quotidienne.

@BeFreed user

Au début, il m'a fallu un moment pour comprendre comment créer des podcasts en italien, et boum ! C'est génial ! Je peux lui demander d'expliquer n'importe quel sujet et elle le fait super bien, avec beaucoup d'intelligence !

@matteo77

BeFreed est devenue mon app quotidienne pour les livres audio… Ce que je préfère, c'est de pouvoir déposer son texte et obtenir un audio à écouter en déplacement.
