Something To Talk About podcast: Nat Barr imposter syndrome Sunrise desk

Natalie Barr reveals she was initially reluctant to accept the a job on Sunrise and found herself second-guessing whether she was right for the role.

She’s one of the most well known women on Australian TV, and yet, as she marks three years on air as the co-host of Sunrise, Natalie Barr reveals she was initially reluctant to accept the job and found herself second-guessing whether she was right for the role. 

She also opens up about establishing an on-air rapport with Matt Shirvington after the departure of long time co-host David Koch, tuning out the white noise of social media - and how she handles speculation about the supposed tension between her and her female colleagues. “Whatever a catfight is, I can’t remember any in the Sunrise office,” she tells Something To Talk About. 

At 55, she is feeling more confident than ever – even if her inner Catholic school girl fears it might be “bragging” to admit it.  But it’s also a chapter of her life that has seen her two sons both move out of home, leaving Natalie and her husband adjusting to being empty-nesters. 

See more of Natalie Barr weekdays on Sunrise on Channel 7 and 7Plus.
