Joy Pellet

Former French Military Intelligence Officer
Bilingual in French & English
Global Conflict Analyst
Geopolitical Strategist

If you want to understand where the world is going, follow the maps. But if you want to understand why it’s going there—follow the intelligence officers.

Joy Pellet is one of the rare geopolitical voices who has actually worked the terrain she now writes about. As a former targeting and geopolitical analyst for the French Ministry of Defense, her work wasn’t academic. It was operational. It shaped real-world decisions—sometimes within hours, not weeks.

Her five-year tour in French military intelligence put her in the engine room of global power projection. From desert campaigns in the Middle East to fragile conflict zones in Africa, she was tasked with transforming chaos into clarity. Her reports didn’t land in classrooms—they landed on the desks of generals.

Fluent in both French and English, and armed with dual master’s degrees in International Relations and Strategic Intelligence from Jean Moulin University in Lyon, Joy doesn’t just interpret global risk—she deconstructs the machinery behind it. Energy chokepoints, demographic collapse, rogue-state opportunism, asymmetric warfare—these are her lexicon, not her headlines.

Where others see headlines, she sees fault lines.

Where others react to news, she anticipates it.

In a world where most geopolitical commentary is written from hotel rooms and whiteboards, Joy writes from experience. And what she offers is something most analysts can’t: clarity with consequence. Her writing decodes the real stakes behind the surface tension—what it means for markets, for national security, and for the future balance of global power.

She is not here to sound alarms for clicks. She’s here to sketch out what comes after the sirens.

In a geopolitical landscape destabilized by energy shocks, shifting alliances, and the end of Pax Americana, Joy Pellet is one of the few analysts who can bridge military-grade intelligence with accessible, high-stakes insight for business leaders, investors, and global citizens.

Because today, geopolitical literacy isn’t optional—it’s survival.
