Women on the Move with Jennifer Green

If you had told Jennifer Green a mere three years ago that she would eventually host her own radio show, she would have been incredulous. A 12-year veteran of Jewish Family & Career Services in Atlanta, Green was happily immersed in her career as a part of Atlanta’s non-profit establishment. Nonetheless, in 2006, she left her comfortable position in the social service world to pursue her other great passion: women’s entrepreneurial pursuits.

A native of Long Island and graduate of New York City’s Pace University, Green has quickly made her mark as a broadcaster. As host of Women on the Move, Green has interviewed a plethora of successful women–from Atlanta City Commissioner Lisa Borders, to world renowned radio talk host “Dr. Laura” Schlessinger. “No one else in Atlanta radio was doing what we’re doing,” says Green, whose twice-weekly program has fast become a favorite among women and men alike. “I saw a need, and I filled it.”

And it’s not just famous and high-powered women who are the subject of her show. “I want to help every woman that I can..every woman who has an idea and the motivation to make it work, despite the odds.”

As a married mother of teenagers, Green, like so many other career women, struggles to find a balance between work and family. “It’s never easy,” she says. “That’s why my day starts at 5:30.”

Women on the Move airs Saturdays and Sundays from 1PM-2PM on NewsTalk 1160.
