Meet the Jo

Jo Lippold is a London-born poet, writer, performer, theatre maker and collager. She believes that everyone is creative in how they use their imagination every day, we simply need to remind ourselves of it and nurture it.  She runs Good Cheer Leadership - a place for women to learn how to take control of their purpose and their passion by stepping up to lead in their work and life.

After studying drama and performance art, Jo found herself back in her hometown of London, where she embarked on a six-year stint agency side in PR, coming up with creative campaign concepts and then collecting, connecting, and sharing the dots as stories. Since moving to Melbourne in 2012, she has managed restaurants, become a certified coach, and volunteered at festivals of ideas, events on kindness and compassion revolutions. She believes everyone has a story to tell and own. Everything she does she tries to inject a healthy amount of warmth, humour, and tender truth.
