The woman who changes how kids see sharks – meet Jillian Morris
from Impact Storytelling Podcast (Ocean and Water Conservation Stories) · host Sabine M. Probst Saavedra
In this weeks episode I am talking with Jillian Morris, marine biologist, shark conservationist, educator, author, and founder of Sharks4Kids.Born and raised on the coast of Maine, Jillian developed a love for the sea early on. That childhood fascination has since grown into a remarkable global career—one that spans scientific research, fieldwork, documentary filmmaking, and grassroots education. She's spent thousands of hours diving with sharks across the globe, from the Bahamas to the Turks and Caicos, and has appeared on major platforms like Shark Week. Jillian is also a published author and a member of the prestigious Ocean Artists Society.In 2013 she co-founded Sharks4Kids, a nonprofit that has since reached over 155,000 students in 60 countries and 49 U.S. states, offering free educational resources, virtual lessons, and hands-on experiences to inspire the next generation of ocean advocates.Jillian web:https://www.sharks4kids.comJillian IG:biminisharkgirlSabines Website:www.sabinemprobst.comSabines IG: sabinemprobstImpact Storytelling PodcastIG: @impact.storytelling.podcastSeen Blue Conservation:www.seenblue.orgIG:@seenblue_org
