Massachusetts College Students Out-of-State - Lose Therapist Access

Ever had to leave a therapist you love in MA? Hello all! I’m a reporter at The Boston Globe working on a story about the interstate counseling, social work, and psychologist compacts. These compacts allow mental health professionals to practice across multiple participating states without obtaining a separate license in each one. Massachusetts is not currently part of any of the three compacts. College students are one of the populations most impacted by these policies, as they frequently move home for summer / out of state for a job. I'm hoping to speak to some students in Mass. who live out of state / graduate and move for a job, etc. and are unable to continue seeing a therapist or counselor with whom they had already built a relationship. How did that affect you and your care? If you’d be willing to share your experience, please email me [email redacted]. Thank you!

I’ll be in Costa Rica for a women’s ayahuasca retreat in late November through early December, which I’m so excited about. Psychedelics and plant medicine have been shown to help people get through their grief, so I’m attending not only to research articles I’m working on, but also to work on my own healing. Because I get more hotel invites in Costa Rica than in nearly every other destination in the world, I wanted to put the word out early. I’ll be at the ayahuasca retreat for six nights, but I’m open to checking out another hotel for two nights before or after. I’m especially interested in hotels that have recently opened or been renovated and that emphasize sustainability, accessibility, or longevity. I’m seeking hotels with a strong focus on sustainability, accessibility, or longevity If you’d like to pitch your hotel, here are the details: To pitch: Respond to this email and update the subject heading Subject line: Costa Rica + INSERT YOUR HOTEL’S NAME Pitch by: Tuesday, July 14 EOD

CHROs & CMOs - AI Ownership & Digital Fluency Lessons

#journorequest for UNLEASH 🗞️ I am working on a piece about what CHROs can learn from CMOs in the age of AI. Is this HR's CMO moment? The premise is that CHROs now need to rethink their AI and digital fluency, and ownership & accountability around AI tools in the same way as CMOs did with the advent of digital marketing (where they effectively became Chief Digital Officers). This is inspired by a conversation I had recently with Workday's Daniel Pell. I would love to feature a few voices on this topic - if you have views on this, including a counter argument to this premise, then please do reach out (alexandra [at] unleash [dot] ai). I am looking for views from CMOs themselves, as well as HR practitioners, vendors, analysts, other experts on this topic. I am still working out the precise questions, so just get in touch with general interest at this stage. #CMOsandCHROs

401(k) & 403(b) Participants - Plan Fees & Alternative Investments

Do you track your 401(k) fees? Help ProPublica investigate what’s really happening to your money. Hi r/Retirement401k, We’re reporters at the nonprofit investigative newsroom ProPublica. If you’ve never heard of our work before, we report stories in the public interest. Right now, we’re in the process of reporting on 401(k) retirement plans and we want to hear from you. Some people have their retirement in investment funds with relatively high fees and costly add-ons – and they may never know it. The Trump administration also wants employers to include less-regulated “alternative” investments like private equity and cryptocurrency in 401(k) plans. We want to learn more about the financial products companies are pushing. You can help us report by sending your plan’s annual disclosure: https://www.propublica.org/getinvolved/share-401k-fees-retirement-investment The disclosure lists your 401(k) plan’s investment options, the historical performance of those investments and information on fees — all details that every company is required by law to give an employee, but aren't always made public. \\Note: We aren’t asking for anything that shows your account balances or personal information. And if you have a 403(b) plan and work for a private, tax-exempt organization, we’d also like to hear from you. The more people we hear from, the better informed our reporting will be. Thank you for the time. If you have any questions, please feel free to email [email redacted].

Gen Z Women 18-28 - Mothers' Menopause Impact on Body & Bonds

📣 Call out alert! I'm reporting a feature for Women's Health Magazine about Gen Z women who have watched their mothers go through menopause or preimenopause - and what that experience taught them about their own bodies, their health and overall relationship with their mothers. This is going to be one of the most important pieces that I have written in my career, and I can't do without getting commentary from Gen Z themselves. I'm looking for two Gen Z women (ages 18-28) who are open to sharing their experience for this piece. You'd be a great fit if: → You've watched a parent navigate perimenopause or menopause → You had to figure out what was happening → It changed how you see your mom, your body, or both → You're willing to talk about it honestly Race, background and family communication style all matter to this story. I'm especially interested in hearing from women whose families didn't talk about this openly, and from women of color whose also suffers from this form of silence. If this is something that speaks true to your heart and would love to share it with the WH community, I'd love to hear from you. Send me a DM, email me or drop your email in the comments and I'll reach out directly. Thanks 🧡 📧 [[email redacted]] 📰 For: Women's Health Magazine https://lnkd.in/ewuv2mmH

Leaders Practicing Modern Leadership - Podcast Interviews

It's been a big week in podcast land. We finally hit 1000 downloads, had an episode listed on Listen Notes as a top podcast episode about Nancy Kline (although oddly it wasn't our episode that was literally all about Nancy Kline) and we had a fun awayday to plan our next season all about leadership. I've loved podcasting this year - it is a great way to really pull together your thinking on a topic and to keep up to date with latest research and ideas. I've also loved meeting listeners and hearing how useful they've found it- especially when it has been people I don't know. And I've loved all of the chats and laughs with Maddie Fox as we've pulled it all together. It's a very odd thing putting content out with absolutely no idea of who is listening, so please drop Maddie or me a line if you have been enjoying it. You will make our days! If you haven't listened along yet, our top 5 most popular episodes this season have been: - Conflict at Work: Good Fights, Bad Fights, and the Ones You're Taking Offline - How Culture Is Shaped: Leaders & Founders - Belonging: Who Gets To Speak? - The stories running your culture (and how to rewrite them) - Trust Falls and Other Workplace Injuries (How to build, break and repair trust at work) Next season is all about leadership. As part of it, we would love to interview leaders who really 'get' how to lead in our modern world. So if you have worked for or with someone who you think is a brilliant leader, please let us know below or via DM!
