Grannies Don’t Go on Stage! – Jill in conversation with Veronica Ebanks

Veronica often refers to herself as a Grandma (and she is to 11 grandchildren) but that is hard to believe because she is so young and vibrant and full of curiosity! Difficult early beginnings running into early adult life, meant she had to overcome many obstacles which wasn’t easy by any stretch but her indomitable Spirit kept her going. Even with a successful career in Science & Education - come midlife she still suffered from no confidence and low self esteem. When she found herself made redundant at midlife, it turned out to be the ultimate catalyst, kickstarting an entirely new career and changing the course of her life. A wellspring of new talents broke free and soon she was doing things she thought she’d never do, such as going on stage to perform spoken word, among many other things. If you ever thought you couldn’t possibly do something new, then take a listen to Veronica as she would simply inspire anyone to just go for it! .......... Biog Veronica is an Afro-Caribbean from Jamaica raised in London, married for 40 years, four sons and 11 grandchildren. A science graduate with Science and Education professional work history, who after redundancy created a career as an Independent Safeguarding Consultant/Trainer and Restorative Justice Practitioner. An entrepreneur and micro business owner of Verelba Mind & Body, providing artisanal skincare, wellbeing items and holistic therapy (Federation of Holistic Therapists registered). A published writer and co-author, performance artist, storyteller, and speaker, sharing work on radio, online and with theatre appearances. Has a love for people, nature, arts, crochet, gardening, travelling and vintage fashion. ......
