James Valentine Head Room
ABC
Welcome to the brand new season of Head Room; 'The Beliefs Series', where James Valentine wants to know – why people do what they do, and what they believe.
Join James and a host of high-profile Australians to find out about their beliefs, principles, and core driving values that underpin all they do.
Do you believe that people are good? Do you believe people can change? Should you binge TV? Do you think everything is getting faster? Which are better, cats or dogs?
These are conversations that are as deep as they are wide. Guests range from the famous and celebrated through to people whose life and work means they've really had to work out what they think and why.
Follow Head Room, The Beliefs Series and you just might question your own.
