Episode description

A multi-platinum songwriter who combines humor, wisdom and inspiration with soaring vocals and acoustic arrangements to give her audiences a “faith-lift.”  Jana is the founder of Together For Good Worldwide and Refugee Film School as well as the co-founder of Together We Can Change the World.  Her songs have been featured on television shows like 20/20Entertainment Tonight, and Oprah, and movie soundtracks, sung by Reba McEntire and others. While her compositions were climbing the music charts, often sung by other artists, Jana was charting a different path. With a background in TV journalism, music, and stand-up comedy, Jana turned her concerts into Keynote Concerts, becoming a Certified Speaking Professional with two TEDx performances in addition to two concerts at Carnegie Hall. Jana Stanfield has delivered her Keynote Concerts in the United States, Canada, South Africa, Kenya, the Bahamas, Australia, New Zealand, India, England, the Netherlands, Dubai, Lebanon, Turkey, Greece, Spain, France, Cambodia, Thailand, Malaysia, Myanmar, the Philippines, Bali and Singapore.  Her TEDx talks were at NASA, and then in Chennai, India. To help girls without access to school, she and her professional speaking colleague, Scott Friedman, co-founded an international 501c3 called Together We Can Change the World, www.TWCCTW.com , with more than 15 projects in 5 countries to empower disadvantaged women and girls with education and job skills. She now lives in Bali, Indonesia, where she performs her music and humor.
