Luxury Travel Hosts–Manifestation & Fitness Experts–Yahoo Editorial

I’m currently building my editorial slate for early next year in my role as a [url=https://substack.com/redirect/4221279c-cebb-47d7-843d-69016446b781]Yahoo Creator[/url] and am interested in stories and partnerships that go deeper than the obvious angle. Below is what I’m actively working on for January and beyond. If you have a pitch that’s a fit, I’d love to hear from you: [email redacted]. TRAVEL – Luxury properties in Central and North America and/or the Caribbean that are open to hosting my husband and me for a standalone review OR potentially for a spring break trip with our girls – Hotels, restaurants, or experiences in Los Angeles and Las Vegas, as I’ll be traveling there in mid-February SHOPPING – Products for a manifestation-themed gift guide (journals, candles, ritual tools, wellness items, etc.) – Products for a Valentine’s/Galentine’s Day piece focused on celebrating with your kids from a girl-mom perspective, including gifts for both moms and daughters – Products for a strength-training gift guide, including gear, shoes, apparel and training accessories EXPERTS (Please do not send commentary until I share specific questions — thank you.) – Manifestation experts for an article on setting intentions and manifesting goals – Certified fitness trainers to discuss and answer questions around strength training One important note: starting tomorrow, I’ll be fully offline and out of office through the holidays and won’t be responding to pitches or inquiries until January 5. If you send something before then, I promise it’s not being ignored: it’s just waiting for me on the other side of a real break!

Prize Donations Needed for Brooklyn Bike Charity Event by Nov 14

Can You Donate Prizes to My Charity Event? The main purpose of today’s newsletter is to promote an annual charity event that I organize called [url=https://substack.com/redirect/edf52059-5d8f-4b36-a80c-3ed63f67050b]Brooklyn Cranksgiving[/url], which celebrates its 10th anniversary this year. It’s essentially a super fun scavenger hunt bike ride where people race around central Brooklyn, answering trivia questions, performing goofy stunts, finding and taking pictures of BK- and bike-specific items, all while raising money for food access. If you live in NYC, I’d love if you join the ride. Otherwise, check the [url=https://substack.com/redirect/04286d17-1bed-424e-a728-5a18168bfc7b]Cranksgiving website[/url] to see if there is a ride near you (there are about across the country!) Before I transitioned to full-time writing, I worked in community development and food justice, focusing on improving access to healthy food in underserved communities. I also taught plant-based nutrition at several elementary schools in Harlem and the Bronx, and conducted food and fitness classes at senior centers in Brooklyn. Cranksgiving started as a race to buy Thanksgiving-themed canned/boxed food to donate to pantries, and that’s how most cities still run the ride. When I founded the Brooklyn ride 10 years ago, I shifted the structure to focus on fresh foods and then to donating money instead of food. While many of us grow up learning that you battle hunger by donating to food drives, this is an extremely inefficient use of funds, and it’s a band-aid solution for a massive systemic injustice problem. Working to improve food justice and overall access is a more long-term approach, so that’s why we raise money for organizations doing that work instead of collecting food to donate to pantries. This gives them greater purchasing power and allows them to buy exactly what they need, versus whatever someone feels like donating. A local TV news station did a [url=https://substack.com/redirect/e9b6cd7f-a31d-4ad0-9dac-d69bebc7f08f]short video segment[/url] about the ride last year if you want to watch. Anyway….this is the 10th anniversary of the ride (check out [url=https://substack.com/redirect/edf52059-5d8f-4b36-a80c-3ed63f67050b]the Eventbrite link here[/url] or see our [url=https://substack.com/redirect/488d151e-7a78-485f-ac22-dfbcd9ffc558]Instagram account[/url] for more pics and info) and I’m shamelessly seeking donations. Not only do donations get people excited about the ride, but when we get a lot of donations, we auction them off to raise more money for our food justice partners. Last year, the auction brought in an extra $500. As a bike-themed ride, of course we are interested in receiving bike helmets, locks, jerseys, and all things bike, but we are also happy to receive pretty much anything that riders could get excited about. In the past, we’ve received bottles of whiskey, backpacks, and clothing. Some of my subscribers here even sent random items like water filters (thanks, Brita, they were actually really popular!) The ride is on Sunday, November 16th, so I’d need to receive donations by November 14th. If you want to donate to the ride, please respond with “BROOKLYN CRANKSGIVING” in the subject, along with the name of the product/service you’d like to donate.

Expert Guest in Fitness-Faith-Finances-Fulfilment-Family for Moai Mastermind

Just recorded an incredible podcast with Sam Sutton for the Moai Mastermind, keep an eye out for the full release! Who agrees with Sam about the possibility of nature being prescribed by doctors? What are the chances we could start doing this in the UK? What conditions could it help treat? For thousands of years, men gathered around fire to tell stories, pass lessons, heal wounds, and build brotherhood. Modern science now confirms what our ancestors knew: looking into fire lowers blood pressure, reduces stress, and deepens connection. Inside the MOAI Mastermind, we don't sit in conference rooms. We sit around fire. The word Moai comes from Okinawa, one of the world's Blue Zones, where people thrive through lifelong circles of support. Moai literally means "a meeting for a common purpose." I have built that same model for ultra-ambitious entrepreneurs. This is elite-level life coaching inside a brotherhood - always in nature - focused on five critical pillars: Fitness, Faith, Finances, Fulfilment, and Family. We ARE nature. We come FROM nature. The science is clear on its healing power. In my military career, I learned that real growth is earned through initiation in the wild, not behind a computer screen. Modern man is disengaged and detached. The MOAI is where you experience a homecoming to what really matters. I'm actively looking for expert guests to come on and share their expertise around these five pillars with our brotherhood. If you're an expert in fitness, faith, finances, fulfilment, or family - and want to share your story, lessons, and insights with a group of ultra-ambitious men - drop me a message. Real conversations. Real growth. Real brotherhood. Join the waiting list, link in the comments
