Change Em Ways had the privilege of hosting Senator Pat Dodson who shared his knowledge and experience as a guest speaker with program participants.  The Senator spoke about the challenges of change and managing emotions using examples from his own amazingly varied life experiences.

From negotiating with stockmen to overcoming oppositional politics in parliament the Senator shared how important it was to focus on the common ground and build a strong foundation in all relationships. Participants of the program fed back that they felt privileged having the Yawuru Senator speak to them and were taken aback by his wisdom and understanding.
