Looking for Caregivers/IHSS Workers to Interview Hello! I am a student journalist at UCSB who is looking to interview IHSS workers and caregivers working in the Santa Barbara county. I am writing an article covering the new three year contract approved by the Board of Supervisors this past week that gives caregivers a slight pay increase. The interview would be centered around how this increase in wage might impact workers’ livelihoods, the ongoing demand for caregiving services, and honest thoughts regarding what can be done to further help both the communities in need of these services and those that provide them. Please reach out with any questions or concerns, I’m happy to answer.

Gen Z Case Studies on Boston Affordability for Boston Globe

Boston Globe reporter looking to talk with Gen Zers for a story on affordability Hiall. My name is Shannon, and I'm a reporter at the Boston Globe. For a story, I'm looking to speak with Gen Zers living in the Boston area about how they're making it here. How are you dealing with the high cost of living? What are your "struggle" meals? What is your housing situation like? Where do you get your work clothes? How do you afford your medicine and other expenses? What does your average night out with friends look like? If you'd be up for talking with me about any of the above, please send me a message or send a note [email redacted]. Thanks so much!

Senior Women Needed for Career Journey Interviews

Moving from the US to the UK has definitely been a learning experience...the two countries share a lot culturally, but one key difference I really appreciate is the British don't have the same tendency to equate career with identity. When I first arrived in London from the US, I didn’t even realise I was so stressed. I thought that was just adulthood. ⏰ Urgency = importance. ⏰ Calm felt suspicious. ⏰ Being available at all hours was just how things were. ⏰ Obviously you still work on vacation. ⏰ The ping of an email notification causes the blood pressure to spike. But the people I was meeting in London were different... People talked about how much they enjoyed their weekends. Meetings started without apologies for not having worked late. When I met new people, the conversation didn’t immediately turn into an inventory of former employers. I started noticing that people genuinely left work at work. Not in a lazy way. They just had…boundaries. Whoa. I know this can be easier said than done, but for myself, I’ve slowly realised that easing back on my Go-go-go approach has actually made my work better. Turning off the work brain makes sleep come easier and when I come back to work, my thinking is better. When I meet new people, I now ask them about their LIVES, not just their careers. Because we are all so much more than just our job titles. And when emails come in on the weekend? I usually read them and then mark them Unread until Monday. Gone are the days of Email Ping = Tightening Chest of Urgency. Honestly, I know I’ll send a more thoughtful email on Monday morning and the delay is not going to hurt anyone. I’ve still got plenty of American shortcomings, I won’t deny that! And I’m still driven; I still care deeply about my work. But I am grateful to be getting better at letting go of the tendency to equate identity and work, urgency and importance. Moral of the story: regardless of where you live, be less American. Give yourself space to breathe. Give yourself permission to be more than your career. -- P.S. I’m Rachel — leadership coach for people carrying a little too much. I help you get clear, make decisions, and build momentum without doing everything yourself. 🔎 in January, I am looking to interview women in senior roles about their careers: what got them here, where they want to go, what they’d do differently if they could do it all again. If you’re interested, send me a DM!
