What Aussie Game Changers Would Tell Their 20-Year-Old Selves

“If only we knew then what we know now”

How many of us have said that old chestnut to ourselves over the years as we reflect on life’s rollercoaster ride?

It’s never too late to change of course, regardless of your age, or financial circumstances.

So to help you with those New Year’s resolutions, four business leaders from our Sarah Harris-hosted Game Changers series – Karin Adcock, Sharon Williams, Kendall Seddon and Scott Pendlebury – have shared some insightful gems on what they’ve learned on the road to success.

We asked them what they’d say if they could go back in time and meet up with their 20-year-old selves.

Presenter: Sarah Harris is the presenter of Game Changers.com.au. She is also a mum of two, journalist and host of Network Ten’s show, Studio 10 and Shark Tank. It takes a special mix of sass and smarts to wrangle co-hosts (and media heavyweights) Kerrie Anne Kennerley and Joe Hildebrand in front of a live studio audience every day. Sarah has both in spades; not least because she spent more than a decade on the road as a reporter, covering some of the biggest stories around the world. Before moving to Network 10, she worked at Channel Nine as the network’s go to reporter: delivering extended live coverage from Victoria’s Black Saturday bushfires, the Christchurch earthquake and Queensland’s devastating floods in 2011.
