In this episode we hear from Jennifer Jones – at the time of this recording in September 2022, Jennifer was just about to take office as the first ever woman President of Rotary International. Yes, a first in its 115-year history.
This is an amazing accomplishment, so you can imagine how excited we were to be able to interview her, initially for an article we wrote which highlights incredible individuals we call Goalmakers.
Jennifer was interviewed by Amber Cortes, one of Global Washington’s writers.
We hope you enjoy this episode as Jennifer takes us on her journey from attending Rotary meetings as a reporter in the late 1980’s to becoming the 2022-2023 President, and quite a bit more...

Next up, I was able to grab some time with Tim Prewitt, the President and CEO of The Hunger Project, while he was passing through Seattle in April of 2023.
We were able to find a space in a WeWork conference room and had a deep and inciteful conversation about food systems, food security, the challenge of addressing extreme hunger around the world, how living, working and visiting international locations helps adjust one's perspective, and slow down, and much, much more.
