Welcome to Pivot Club, where we sit down with people who've spent years building their lives… and then one day completely changed direction. 

Whether it's celebrities who walked away from fame to study their true passion at university, corporate leaders who took up comedy and "fell up", or your neighbour who left teaching to world to start a food truck – we're here to uncover the real stories behind life's biggest pivots. How did they know it was time? What was the scariest part? And most importantly, what can YOU learn from their leap of faith? 

Each week host Sarah Davidson, who herself pivoted from lawyer to hugely successful entrepreneur and author, has intimate, and at times hilarious conversations with both household names and everyday heroes who took the plunge!

This is all about the messy, honest truth of reinventing yourself, because sometimes the best life is the one you never planned.
