Janette Manrara: The Banana
Janette Manrara brings a banana, sparkly shoes, and a sentimental pendant, sparking laughs, heritage, and life stories.
This week on Sort Your Life Out Unpacked, Dilly Carter is joined by Janette Manrara, who brings three surprising items from her home: a banana, a pair of sparkly dance shoes, and a sentimental pendant from her great-grandmother.
Dilly can’t help but be bemused as Janette explains her love of adding bananas to everything – even spaghetti bolognese. The dance shoes twirl the conversation into her Cuban roots, her leap from a finance career into the world of dance, and the joys of following your passion.
Finally, the pendant uncovers tender family memories and practical tips for caring for cherished jewellery. Full of humour, heart, and handy tips, Janette proves that even ordinary items can hold extraordinary stories.
