Untold Story # 45: Meet Jeanne Robertson World's Greatest Women

    • Business

Today’s woman grew to 6 ft 2 by the age of 13 and many believed being a basketball player would be her future. But fate had a different plan for her. She won Miss North Carolina and by the age of 19 had made over 500 speeches. A lifetime of speaking began to unfold. But her speaking wasn’t like other professionals.  She played around with ways to entertain and came to realize that the real power in speaking was in sharing her personal stories from a woman’s viewpoint.  And in these true stories she could help others laugh not only at her life journey but also at their own. As the decades flew by, she continuously kept her material fresh and relevant. And as a world class humorist and speaker, she continues today to brighten and uplift the lives of millions of people. It is my pleasure to introduce you to one of the World’s Greatest Women - Jeanne Robertson.
