ABOUT KATE O’MEALLEY:
Kate O’Mealley is a Copywriter. Editor. Professional Typo Spotter and Small Business Mentor.
Kate founded Oh My Word in 2004… way back when social media and #sidehustle wasn’t a thing! In the beginning, she juggled her small business with working full-time in big business – but had a sneaky feeling corporate life wasn’t for her.
With 15 years of experience in corporate communications, Kate’s written about many things from superannuation to recycling pizza boxes. She’s also been a ghostwriter for CEOs and AFL footballers. These days, Kate puts her wordy skills and business experience to good use mentoring and working with a range of businesses (big and small), not for profits and solopreneurs. Kate is also the Dep Editor and feature writer for Coal Coast Magazine.

ABOUT THIS PROGRAM:
The Freelance Jungle redundancy program has been made possible through the generosity of Good2Give and Facebook Australia. As part of a grant, this program aims to provide people affected by COVID, the bushfires and the economic downturn within Australia to transition from employment to freelancing. It includes the opportunity to learn from people who have already faced redundancy as well as those flourishing in their fields.
