This is a podcast where we sit down with some very successful people from the world of business, entertainment and sport about their life’s journey and what got them to the position that they’re in today.

In today’s episode we are chatting with Lisa Wilkinson

Lisa is one of Australia's most respected journalists and media personalities.

In our chat we talk about her growing up in Sydney, being the middle child and “good girl” as she says, and the bullies she experienced at school.

We talk about her career starting early and becoming the editor of a major, national magazine at just 21 years old, and how that led to her career in television.

Lisa is graceful. She’s dignified and it seems that just about anything she touches turns to gold. She’s incredibly talented and hard working and she learnt to trust her instincts and seize the opportunities that came before her, even if she didn’t feel ready for them.

We speak about her time with the Today show, and answer a few questions surrounding her departure from the show that the headlines didn’t get correct.

As for all of these podcasts, Shaw and Partners have generously donated $10k to the charity of choice of each of our guests. We discuss who that money goes to in this chat.
