At 52 and living in Jette, Anne left a long career in political administration and health sciences to follow her passion for handiwork.

Could this new approach to home repairs fill a gap in Brussels’ service market? Let’s explore what Madame Bricola brings to the table.
What makes Madame Bricola stand out in a crowded market? Liesse’s background and approach highlight key factors:
- Her switch from high-level administration to hands-on repair challenges traditional job hierarchies.
