Jane Kennedy talks to GetRealLive
Listen now
Description
As we continue to launch GetRealLive support of the International Day of the Girl through '#grlPower - TURN UP THE VOLUME' today we get the opportunity to speak to Jane Kennedy who is the founder of 'A Girl & Her World'.    Jane fell in love with the Pacific Islands during a 3 year stint in Fiji with her family, where she worked with the Fiji Red Cross Society. She found the sunsets breathtaking, the mangoes unbelievable and the people generous and warm. She was amazed by their ability to smile in the face of adversity and bounce back from hardship. ‘a Girl & her world’ was born when a friend in Fiji needed help getting her daughter to high school, the rest is history. Jane believes that where you are born or who you were born to, should not determine your opportunity to flourish in life! She is committed to making a difference in the lives of girls and their families in the Pacific islands and learns so much from walking alongside them.   Jane has a background in Health and (in her day job) currently manages programs in the Pacific for a Relief and Development agency. Tune in and listen as Jane brings her front line experience to the GetRealLive audience. This show promises to be inspiring and motivating!
