SUNDAY SPECIAL: Mia Freedman & Why Redundancy Was One Of The Best Things To Happen To Her

Whether you're navigating a redundancy right now or just want to be prepared, we’re going to change your perspective of redundancy.

Today we have a really juicy Sunday Special. In this episode of BIZ, Mia Freedman takes us behind the headlines of her very public redundancy that led her to founding Mamamia (you won’t believe the job they offered her instead…).

You'll hear Mia in conversation with Michelle Battersby and then insight from our career coach Soph Hirst, and you'll get practical advice on how to create a narrative that positions you perfectly for your next role and how to rebuild your confidence and reputation after a career setback.

If you want your work life issue solved, send us a voice note or email us at podcast@mamamia.com.au.
