Jo Moore

My guest today worked for Club Med from 1989 to 2004 and her first season was in Club Med Sandpiper in 1989/1990 as a Baby Club G.O. She worked her way up to Chief of Baby and Petit Club and was also a Child Care/ Circus HR manager as well as the Child Care Regional Manager. From British Columbia, Canada, please help me welcome Jo Moore!! Before Club Med, Jo worked in a YMCA summer camp that was just like Club Med, the only difference was that it did not have a bar! Jo went to Club Med Ixtapa as a G.M. on vacation when she was 18 years old. There she met two future Chief of Villages you may have heard of, who were in their very first season: Kevin Batt and Steve Riely. Jo worked in villages such as Punta Cana, Eleuthera, Ixtapa, St. Lucia, Crested Butte and Paradise Island. Jo shares so many funny stories and my personal favorite would have to be that she might have been the only woman in the world who did not know who Lenny Kravitz was when she met him in Club Med Eleuthera in 1990! Other stories Jo shares are playing "Six Degrees of Separation" at dinner with astonishing results, taking a four-foot swan dive off the stage in Sandpiper, “Kids in a Kenton Village”, and fond happy hour memories in K building in Eleuthera. Jo tells us what it was like opening the village of Crested Butte in 2000/2001 and what her experience was working at the corporate offices of Sandpiper and Miami from 1997 to 2000. At the end of the interview, Jo talks about her website, “Expandingjoy.love”, which sells t-shirts and hoodies and is a place “where each person is encouraged to live their happiest life based on what makes them happy”.
