The eight-episode series hits HGTV on Wednesday, April 19 at 9|8c and will be available to stream the same day on discovery+. During each episode, we'll get to follow Galey, a fulltime Wall Street executive and DIY design dynamo, on the weekends, as she uses her extraordinary do-it-yourself skills to give homeowners a new lease on life in just a few days' time. In each episode, she and her team will work unrelenting hours to turn out stunning home renovations that will provide these families — who are all selected from her massive social media following — the lift they've been needing.
"To pull off these projects in a weekend, my team and I spend months planning, ordering and building," says Galey. "These families mean everything to us. It takes a lot of late nights, talent and grit, but it's all worth it to give these families their Home in a Heartbeat."
In the first episode, Galey meets the McCarthy family who are eager to find functionality in their home after experiencing the loss of a loved one. Over a single weekend, Galey and her team work tirelessly to reimagine their underutilized living and dining room into a luxurious and cohesive space the whole family can enjoy for years to come.

Designer and social media star Galey Alix brings stylish and accessible design to a new series on HGTV.
"Monday through Friday I'm an executive at one of the largest investment firms on Wall Street, but on the weekends I'm a DIY designer," says Galey. "My process is pretty unique. People reach out to me on social media, they hand me their credit card and their keys, and I move in for the weekend without ever telling them what I’m doing. Every home makeover is a complete surprise and I do it all with my small but scrappy team of best friends. It’s always a mad dash to the finish and some very late nights, but we can’t get enough of it."
