Janine Hall – from Marketing Director to Award Winning Health Retreat Founder

Welcome back to season 2. New podcast artwork and a new segment await your eyes and ears! As usual each week I will feature a guest who has made an incredible career pivot and who will share their inspirational story with me. However, at a time of world lockdown I wanted to reach out and chat to friends in various countries and check in with them; the new segment has its own jingle and everything and is called ‘Around the Grounds’.In this episode I chat to Janine Hall. A Kiwi born and bred, Janine spent many years in both the UK and Australia in high powered marketing roles, but it was only after snagging what she thought was her dream job back in New Zealand she realised it wasn’t what made her heart sing. So, she walked away from the corporate world and set up a health and wellness retreat. Fast forward 10 years and Janine is now CEO and Founder of Escape Haven the 5-star award winning luxury women’s retreats in Australia and Bali. We spoke before lockdown and since travel is off the cards at present Escape Haven has provided some amazing online options – check them out at www.escapehaven.com My inaugural ‘Around the Grounds Guest’ is my old friend, television journalist and craft Queen Leila McKinnon. We chat about the highs and lows of ISO and whether she taken out the kitchen scissors to cut the families hair yet or not?!Follow along at @soiquitmydayjob or So I Quit My Day Job on FB or you can reach out to me at www.cathrinemahoney.com Janine Hall:Instagram @escapehavenFB Escape Haven Retreatswww.escapehaven.comLeila McKinnon:Instagram @leilamckinnonTwitter @leilamckinnon‘So, I Quit My Day Job’ is produced by the wonderful and talented Darcy Milne check out his company at www.propodcastproduction.com  Hosted on Acast.
