In this episode, Hayley sits down with Jeannelle Gresham, a Danish-born mother of two who’s been calling Luxembourg home since 2007. After becoming a citizen in 2015 and spending time as a stay-at-home parent, Jeannelle discovered a surprising new path: real estate renovation.



What started with a single home transformation in Neudorf evolved into a passion project and ultimately a business. Jeannelle shares how she built her renovation career around family life, the lessons she’s learned while managing projects, and her advice for others looking to do the same.



Jeannelle also opens up about her work as a certified Relaxation Trainer (DiMAP), and how finding calm amidst the chaos of motherhood and entrepreneurship has been key to her journey.
