                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[Florence Lemeer-Wintgens and Solveig Ellefsen swopped from working as executive PAs to something completely different 'mid-life', but something much more aligned with what fulfilled them.

The curve-balls of life hit most of us at some point. Apart from the inevitable pain, they can be pivot points for us to reassess the status quo of what has been, and what might be.

Florence became an image consultant at the age of 50, following in the footsteps of her Great-Grandfather who created a textile industry in the family name. She grew up surrounded by materials and colours were intrinsic to her life. 

Florence loves colour and emphasises its greater importance in winter months when there is less sunlight and the weather can be dreary. However, she adds that "If you shine inside you will shine outside."

Solveig, also an executive PA, suffered a burn-out aged 46, trying to cope with young child, new country, new job and all of the other pressures which can implode in such a situation. This led her to starting from scratch, securing her health and well-being as a priority from which all else hangs. 

Solveig has written a book entitled "The Inner Sun Path to Happiness" which details her journey of taking care of herself. She believes that positive energy is contagious. "Smile to people - a tiny gift for their day."

And through all of the challenges of life, Solveig believes that "Life is beautiful it's magical."

"The wheel is always turning."

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[Generously, he spoke with me for an hour with the gentle assuredness of a man who has sat at the top of politics for decades. 

Jean-Claude Juncker's political path started when he joined Chrëschtlech Sozial Vollekspartei, CSV, in 1974 aged 20. He moved through the roles of Ministry from 1984 to include the Ministries of Labour, Finance and Employment, until he became Prime Minister of Luxembourg in 1995. And there he remained for 18 years until 2013. 

More recently, we have known Jean-Claude Juncker as the President of the European Commission, 2014-2019. And from this vantage point, as a Former President and Prime Minister, he can reflect and speak more freely. This is where our conversation begins.

I hope you enjoy the quiet intellect of this political powerhouse, who can sew together the threads of history which ravaged Europe and the changing relationships within the European Union as it expands.

"It has become more brutal and unfair... because personal relations... have gone down in quality."

His father aged just 15, alongside his three brothers, were forced into the German Wehrmacht, the German army, against their will.

"He had no youth because his youth was stolen by the German Reich."

And yet, his father, unlike some men who had endured the same, travelled back to Germany with his family to show the young Juncker places he had been in the war. Pertinently, his father spoke about "the absence of Europe". 

And Juncker, as one of the remaining intergenerational politicians who's family were intimately affected by the Second World War, is concerned that "the next generation of policy makers in Europe are running the risk to be blind when it comes to European history....because they had no witnesses who can tell them how things were."

When it comes to the European Union now, he is a realist. Juncker knows better than most the pulls and pushes of different countries' mindsets, and the historical reasons why. He knows that the same European dream is not shared by all Europeans. 

"I'm not pessimistic but I'm also not over-optimistic."

Some people feel the European Union should have a stronger voice internationally, but in order for this to be the case they need to be able to decide by qualified majority in the field of foreign policy. 

"That's of the essence if the European Union wants to play an international role."

Juncker doesn't want the EU to become a super-power and is acutely aware that Europe is small geographically and increasingly small demographically. 

On media, he is a fan of print paper and good radio, particularly German or French. 

"They have time to explain things. They have time to compare."

He is not a fan of social media. 

"I was never following this... They have influence but I don't want to be influenced by them... If you are reading this you are not reacting to the real problem."

And our conversation ends with a series of questions from you, our audience.]]></content:encoded>

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[His humbling, deeply poignant story, shows a man unbowed and more determined to hope for peace, through women and health.

Born in the Jabalia refugee camp in the Gaza Strip, Izzeldin was encouraged by his mother to strive hard through education, to rise above the abject poverty around him. And he succeeded, studying medicine at the University of Cairo, Obstetrics & Gynaecology at the University of London, and a Master of Science in Public Health at Harvard.

Dr. Abuelaish became the first Palestinian doctor to work in an Israeli hospital. But despite his deep medical knowledge, his wife died of acute leukemia, on 16 September 2008, aged just 43. This left him with their 8 children.

Just four months later, on 16 January 2009, during the 2008-9 Gaza War, three of his daughters and one niece were killed. And yet Izzeldin has dedicated his life to using health as a vehicle for peace and has been internationally recognised for his continued work for human rights in the Middle East. 

"Health and peace and mutually interconnected."

Dr Abuelaish created the Daughters for Life foundation to promote the health and education opportunities for females in the Middle East.

"The mother is the incubator... Only women can establish a sustainable, just world."

Dr. Abuelaish has written a book entitled "I Shall not Hate" about his life's work. After all he has endured, he believes:

"Hatred is a communicable, contagious, destructive, disease to the one whom is impacted by it."

Dr. Izzeldin Abuelaish was brought to Luxembourg by Paix Juste.

"We Palestinians and Israelis are conjoined twins."

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[After being at the helm of EY Luxembourg for 11 years in which he's grown the company 2.5 fold, Alain Kinsch is passing the baton on to his successor, Olivier Coekelbergs, through a six month transition period, next year. 

We discuss a multitude of topics including tips from Alain's mentor at Arthur Andersen, Norbert Becker;

"... the notion of stewardship. You want to leave the firm in a better way than when you got it."

Alain also believes that "education is a solution to almost everything." He talks of the ambition of hunger he sees in applicants from India and China, which is not always present in the same way from their European or American counterparts. 

Alain made it as a leader, which he always wanted.
He will continue to serve as a Member of the Luxembourg State Council for another decade; the council of chosen representatives to help give their opinions on laws of the land.

Her passion for cinema grew in London and she went on to also take lessons in improvisation when in New York Film Academy. 

With a one-way ticket to Mumbai, she started applying for parts, thousands of parts. With a success rate of 5-10%, her multiple languages, titles of Miss India UK 2010 and Miss Indian Worldwide runner up 2011, it shows how hard it is to pierce the world of cinema.

So far, Niharica has 16 films to her name. The last one was Total Dhamaal (already released) and Sooryavanshi is waiting to be released (cinemas have been shut in India due to COVID-19)

John Marshall is a keen historian and runner. Both of these passions have guided him to exploring the links and collaborations between Luxembourg and the UK, along with the help and ideas from many people along the way, all of whom have been thanked personally by this dedicated Ambassador.

As he approaches the end of his time here as Ambassador, next spring, this is a wonderful legacy, the like of which has not existed before.

In 2019, we filmed some videos exploring #LuxUKLinks in the north and east of Luxembourg. You can also follow HMA John Marshall on twitter.

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[Since then, with a working hiatus in London, he has returned to his roots as a lawyer, with many other roles to keep his politically sharp mind engaged and of service to the country. 

Luc Frieden is a man who people want to listen to. His thoughts matter because they are founded on a lifetime of political inside knowledge, and corporate life latterly. He speaks candidly, with a long view on his past, the present, and touches on the global future, leaving his own path more open.

Luc studied law in Paris, Sorbonne, followed by Cambridge, U.K., and Harvard, U.S. 
"I think that law is always the expression of political choices"

He has now returned to Luxembourg and is a partner with Elvinger Hoss, advising on international corporate and banking matters. 

During his time as Minister of Finance he is proud of changing the face of the financial sector in Luxembourg:

"You can create wealth in a society if you put in place the appropriate legal framework. That's what I wanted to achieve and I think we did it."

When CSV were 'ejected' from power in 2013, Frieden chose to step down as a minister in the opposition.

"I'm not made for the opposition - a sentence which was heavily critisised at the time, and I understand now why."

He goes on to discuss how all the political parties in Luxembourg have become more alike one another, and "all want what is best for the country".

Now as Chairman of the Luxembourg Chamber of Commerce, amongst other chairs:

"I'm still doing politics but in a non partisan manner."

I wonder if he will ever return to politics. ]]></content:encoded>

                                    <content:encoded><![CDATA[Sophie Margue is a driven woman with an intrinsic want to do her best, in work and in sport. Actually in anything that she does. 

Triathlete & half Ironman

Sophie started cycling races at the age of six, then added running and swimming, to become a triathlete. She even participated in the junior European Championships (2008).

Margue is a Luxembourg champion multiple times and has won several elite ETU European Cups. She has competed around the world, including Abu Dhabi, Budapest, Lisbon, Finland, Canada and Australia.

The point at which she felt her training for being a triathlete had plateaued, Sophie turned her focus to the half Ironman. After a frustrating year for athletes, where almost all events were cancelled, Sophie kept up her training and feels in peak form.  

With hope and crossed fingers she is aiming to compete in an Ironman competition in Lisbon in November - hoping that this too won't be cancelled.

Photography

Sophie studied History of Art, Communication and Media design in Munich. After various internships and work experiences she decided to become a full time freelance photographer.  Three years on and her work has garnered the highest respect from some very famous clients here in Luxembourg.
