How finding her purpose is helping Ronni Khan age well

Ronni Kahn AO is one of the most inspirational women you’ll ever meet. A passionate social entrepreneur, author and activist, Ronni is the founder and CEO of food rescue charity, Oz Harvest - an organization that fights food waste and feeds hungry people all over Australia.  Originally from South Africa, where she experienced the brutal reality of apartheid, she was raised in a socialist commune in Israel before finally moving to Australia, and finding an incredibly different way of life. Years later, as the owner of a successful events company, Ronni hit mid-life and became acutely aware of the amount of food that was being wasted at each event. As a way to mitigate the issue, she began hand delivering the untouched food to homeless shelters, and from this initial action, Oz Harvest was born, and so too was Ronni’s mission and life purpose.  Oz Harvest has now provided 195 million meals to hungry people, and is a powerful force in combatting Australia’s food waste issue, meaning that not only has Ronni created a social organization, but also an environmental one that’s making a tangible difference to the health of our planet. Join Shelley for episode #11 of The Aging Project Podcast, as she chats to Ronni about:  Her journey to Oz Harvest  How she discovered the joy of helping others  How her strong sense of purpose has enriched her life  How food waste is one of the most dire environmental issues we’re facing, and the small changes that we can all make to make a big difference  The power of purpose and its transformative effect on your life  How inspiring others is a form of self care  The things she does outside of her work to ensure she ages well The Aging Project is on a mission to discover and share the secrets to aging well, and to empower you to make great choices for your health and wellbeing in your forties and beyond. Hosted by Shelley Craft, The Aging Project Podcast will introduce you to the leading minds in the field of aging fabulously.
