Get ready for an unforgettable chat with the amazing Katelyn Aslett - a woman of many talents and a flair for philanthropy. You'll be amazed as we unravel her remarkable journey embracing diverse careers in travel, textile, and costume design, her adventures in self-sustaining living and bait-to-plate dining, and her philanthropic endeavours that are making waves in the world.
We kick things off with a toast to Katelyn's passionate involvement in the fundraising initiative Dancing CEOs, a cause that supports the Women's Legal Service. You’ll hear all about Katelyn’s humble beginnings in Townsville, where she discovered her entrepreneurial spirit and a passion for cooking. We also bond over our shared experiences as ambassadors for Women's Legal Service and the immense success of the Dancing CEOs campaign. What's more, Katelyn has some fascinating tales of her daring adventures in Africa and her mastery of felting in a sheep district in New South Wales - you won't want to miss them!
Our conversation wouldn't be complete without discussing Katelyn's fashion design journey, including a runway parade between the twin towers in Kuala Lumpur and her ingenious idea, The Giving Table. The Giving Table is a platform that allows people to host dinner parties and donate the proceeds to a charity of their choice – an idea that’s as creative as it is generous. Katelyn's life is an extraordinary tale of adventure, creativity, and generosity. Hit play now – you won't regret it!
