About Janneke

Janneke

Hi, so nice to meet you

Let me introduce myself: I’m a mom, entrepreneur and have been living with my family in Portugal for over 3 years. Yes, really! We sold everything and went off to seek adventure. And oh boy, we had no idea what this move would bring us.

Doing business from abroad

I’m not here to sell you an emigration to Portugal ;-) but if you'd like to follow my journey and receive free weekly storytelling tips?

My background

Former musical performer and now storytelling coach for entrepreneurs and creative professionals.

After years on stage and in the marketing world, I discovered one important truth: Whether you're speaking to a digital camera or a full room, it's always about connection. And that connection starts with your story. Told in a way that fits, resonates, and is true to you. I help ambitious, creative entrepreneurs make themselves visible with clarity and confidence. Because your work deserves to be seen, heard, and felt. I do this from sunny Portugal, in an international playing field. And that makes me even clearer about how important it is to stay true to your own voice, where you are, and who you want to reach.
