🎙️ From Obstetrician to Rotary Co-President: A Journey of Service and Impact
What changes when you go from thinking Rotary is an "old boys club" to becoming co-president within two years?
In this  engaging conversation, host Lili-Ann Kriegler welcomes Dr Jillian Woinarski, who shares her unexpected path into Rotary leadership and takes us inside the Rotary Club of Canterbury's 26th annual Eye Ear mission to the Philippines.
From pioneering an innovative co-leadership model to witnessing life-changing moments in remote villages, Jill reveals what it really means to be part of a "doing club" and why a simple gift of a toy koala captures the heart of this work.
Discover what drew a retired obstetrician-gynaecologist with 40 years of experience to trade luxury for basic hotels at 5:30 a.m. starts, and why she believes the Canterbury club is attracting younger members when many clubs struggle with ageing membership.
If you've ever wondered what Rotary is really about, or whether you'd fit in, this honest and heartfelt conversation might just surprise you.
