I spoke with Janelle Headley, the founder and director of a unique performing arts program for kids and teens in Barbados called Operation Triple Threat (OTT) about the creative community and safe space she has created for young people. Janelle shares about how OTT helps kids to thrive with holistic programming which includes everything from nutritious meals to counseling services. Janelle shares the importance of holding space for kids to express their feelings and creating a safe space for them to 'fail forward'. We talk about Janelle's role as a 'mama to many' and how Operation Triple Threat is meeting the needs of the community during the COVID-19 pandemic.
