How many times have you been tempted to take on a home renovation project, only to be hesitant due to the disruption it would cause in your home for an extended period? If the answer is more times than you can count, you’re not alone. Fortunately, thanks to HGTV’s new show, No Demo Reno, you can now get an intimate look at home renovation projects that don’t require any major demolition. Hosted by Jenn Todryk, a fresh face on HGTV and in the home renovation industry, Jenn has managed to establish herself and her vibrant personality is proving to be a great fit for TV. Here are 10 facts you didn’t know about Jenn Todryk.
1. No Demo Reno Wasn’t Her First Opportunity To Do A Show
Although No Demo Reno is Jenn’s first time doing a TV show, it isn’t her first opportunity. During an interview with DFW Child, Jenn shared that a production company reached out to her in 2018. The company wanted to do a show about Jenn and a friend of hers doing home design projects for other people. She said, “My friend and I were going to decorate homes. We even went out and got an estimate of someone’s house and did a whole consultation. Then I got pregnant, and I’m like, ‘This just isn’t meant to be. I’m creating a business that I’m not even doing, technically, which didn’t seem authentic to me.’ I told my friend, ‘I’m so sorry, but I can’t do it.’”
2. She Auditioned For American Idol
When American Idol first started, the audition process attracted lots of people – even those who had never previously attempted a singing career. Jenn was one of the many who auditioned for the show back then, but unfortunately it doesn’t seem she made it past the audition round. Sadly, we weren’t able to find any footage from her audition.
3. She’s A Blogger
Jenn may be new to the TV world, but she’s certainly no stranger to having a large audience. She has been blogging for the last several years and runs a website called The Rambling Redhead. Her blog covers a variety of topics, including beauty, home decor, fashion, and motherhood.
4. She’s A Tarleton State University Alum
Jenn is a true Texas girl. She was born and raised in the Lone Star State and completed her Bachelor’s degree in Fashion Merchandising there. After college, she launched her career in the fashion industry, working for renowned stores such as Zara and Forever 21.
5. She Owns A Coffee Shop
To say that Jenn can do a little bit of everything might be an understatement. In addition to being a wife, mother, and TV star, she and her husband are also the co-owners of Armor Coffee Company, a local coffee shop in Texas, which they have been running for the past two years. The couple has become well-known in the area.
6. She’s An Author
In addition to all of the other things we’ve already mentioned about Jenn, she is also a published author. In 2017, she released a book titled Whine: 50 Perfect Wines to Pair with Your Child’s Rotten Behavior. We weren’t able to find any information on whether she has plans to write more books in the future, but we’re sure she has plenty of ideas to share.
7. She Has Hashimotos
Jenn suffers from Hashimoto’s disease, a condition in which the immune system attacks the thyroid, a small gland located at the base of the neck below the Adam’s apple, according to the Mayo Clinic. Fortunately, the disease is not life-threatening and can be treated.
8. She’s All About Positivity
Staying positive in a world like ours isn’t easy, but it’s something that Jenn has made a priority. She does her best to find the silver lining in every situation. On The Rambling Redhead, she said, “I’m an optimist by nature. Negativity drains me. Why focus on things I can’t change?”
9. She’s A Dog Person
Jenn and her husband have three children together, but her role as a mother doesn’t end there. She is also a proud pet parent to a beautiful golden retriever named Gary. Not only does Gary make lots of appearances on Jenn’s Instagram page, but he also has his own account – and yes, he does have more followers than most of us will ever achieve.
10. Her Faith Is Very Important To Her
Texas is known for being a conservative and Christian state, so it’s no surprise that religion is very important to Jenn. She has been a devout Christian all her life, relying on her faith in God to get her through. While she has not specified the details of her beliefs, it is clear that her faith is a cornerstone of her life.
