A truly amazing story on this episode of Not Just Crew. Jen Parker is cabin crew who upon landing usually goes straight to medical school, Here she is also currently training to become a doctor. For me this is a real tale of ambition and tenacity, even for those who consider themselves to be highly ambitious.

She tells us how passed failure has not stop her becoming what she want to be, and even being a doctor may not be her finial destination.

Background info: This Episode was originally set to be recorded via Zoom, but as everyone in the UK and the globe was also trying to video conference via Zoom, we couldn't goes live sadly. The very next evening we managed to record, but this was also the same day that Virgin Atlantic had announced that a third of their workforce were to be made redundant due to Covid-19. We did not want to deflect from Jen's amazing story, and we knew there would be questions from our listeners on this subject. We asked them to hold these question for special we would broadcast the following week.

I have released a bonus episode on the first part of our live podcast, when we talk about Virgin Atlantic sad news. (please have a listen and go to the bonus section).
