Despite previously working as a war correspondent, when New York Times journalist Damien Cave moved to Australia from the US, he was shocked by the Aussie approach to risk taking.

Our national loves of nippers & surfing turned what his own country had taught him about risk & how it should be managed on its head.

He says it's changed not only his life but his family’s too & he’s since written a book about it.

Today, we're exploring how changing the way you think about risk can change your life, broaden your horizons & help raise more resilient children & communities.
