Zara Seidler is the co-founder of The Daily Aus - the wildly successful social-first news service - aimed at equipping young people with the information and context around the big stories that matter.
In 2017, as her political advising career was just starting to take off, Zara met Sam Koslowski, and together, the two twenty-somethings decided they’d make a business out of being master explainers.
And that business went nuts!
And at the start of this year, Zara quit her day job to work in The Daily Aus full time. And it now has more than a quarter of a million followers.
Zara talks about the highs and lows of jumping without a safety net (especially when you’re risk averse!), her first ever live tv appearance on ABC QandA, interviewing Gladys Berejiklian and why Millennials and Gen Z should be taken seriously.
