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!

Children's Mental Health Charity - A-level & GCSE Results Day Support

We're putting together a series of articles on Results Day at Tutorful, looking at how young people can navigate the anxiety and pressure that comes with A-level and GCSE results. I want to make sure the advice we publish is genuinely useful and not just generic reassurance. If you work for a children's mental health charity, or you're a therapist or counsellor who supports young people through exam stress, I'd love to hear from you. We're keen to include expert commentary, practical coping strategies, and signposting to real support services, not just the usual "it will all work out" lines students hear every August. If you or your organisation would be open to contributing a quote, a short interview, or a collaboration on this series, drop a comment below or send me a message. Keen to make this genuinely helpful for the young people reading it, and their parents too.

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

Remediation Professionals - Treat Not Relocate Contamination

In this 59th episode, I discuss the topic Relocation aka "Dig/Vacuum and Haul" is NOT Remediation. The old traditional default thought to dealing with contaminated soil is to dig and haul it off to a waste disposal facility. Similarly, vacuuming up contaminated water and transporting it to a disposal facility. In both of these case, the contamination is only being relocated. It is NOT being remediated. In order to remediate the contamination, it has to be treated in order for it to be broken down and the contaminate(s) has to be acted upon by a means of changing its form from being hazardous to non-hazardous. Relocating the contamination is a quick and easy fix to be moved out of sight and out of mind. It is NOT Remediation. It's removal from the current location to another. In this case, it is stored at a waste disposal facility still in it's hazardous form, in theory to be dealt with at some future time. We CAN NOT keep doing this forever! We have natural resources that we require to live. It is in Everyone's best interest, to change our thought processes, from the quick easy fix of digging/vacuuming and hauling to a disposal facility as being the method of last resort, instead of being the default first choice. It is vital to our survival as a species. We must have the first thought to actually remediate the contamination and use waste disposal facilities as a method of last resort. "Thank You" for tuning in and to Our Ongoing Sponsor Hanby Environmental for the continued support of our podcast having a positive impact on The Environmental Remediation Industry! Send in any future podcast topics or questions to [email redacted] and follow us on FaceBook, Linkedin and X. If you are not following this podcast and are in the Remediation Space, "You SHOULD Be!"

Adults With New Food Allergies & Intolerances - Causes & Diagnosis

Have you developed a food intolerance or allergy as an adult, even though you grew up eating that food without any problems? For my upcoming piece for The Indian Express, I'm writing about adult-onset food intolerances and allergies, inspired by my own experience of developing an intolerance to milk and dairy products in my late 20s. What began as a personal health puzzle has made me curious about how and why this happens to so many adults. For this story, I'm looking to speak with: • People who developed food intolerances or allergies in adulthood, particularly to foods they had eaten comfortably for years (such as milk, wheat, eggs, nuts, shellfish or others). • Gastroenterologists, allergists/immunologists and other clinicians who can explain the science behind adult-onset intolerances and allergies, how common they are, whether they can be prevented, and what people should know if they suddenly start reacting to familiar foods. If this resonates with you, or if you know someone whose experience could add valuable perspective, I'd love to hear from you. Please comment below or send me a direct message. #journorequest

People in Their 20s in India - HPV Vaccination Decisions

Hello! I'm working on a story about HPV vaccination in India and am looking to speak with people about their experiences, awareness and decisions around the vaccine. The government offers free HPV vaccination for eligible adolescent girls, but many who missed that age window would ideally need to get "catch-up" doses privately. I'm looking to understand what influences that decision: why people choose to/not to get vaccinated. Is it awareness, cost, access, a doctor's recommendation, or misconceptions? If you're in your 20s and are willing to share your experience, I'd love to hear from you. I'm also looking to speak with parents of eligible children, healthcare professionals, public health experts, and anyone with official data pertaining to HPV vaccination in India. If you're open to speaking, or can connect me with anyone who can, please comment below or DM. Thank you! 📧You can also reach out at: [email redacted] #journorequest #hpvvaccination

Adults Who Nearly Broke - Stories of Survival & Recovery

For a while now, I’ve had an idea that’s been sitting in the back of my mind. It’s a real passion project of mine, and I’m excited to finally bring it to life. I’ll be doing a little more chatting… even when I’m off the air. Introducing “The Hardest Story with Jay Shipston” A few years ago I hosted a podcast where I sat down with some incredible people and talked about their lives. This time, I want to go a little deeper. I want to hear about the chapter of your life that nearly broke you. The moment you wondered, “How am I going to get through this?” Maybe it was losing someone you loved. Maybe it was addiction, illness, mental health, the end of a relationship, a bad decision, or something you’ve never spoken about publicly before. But this isn’t a podcast about being defeated. It’s about what happened next. It’s about resilience. Growth. Finding strength you didn’t know you had. Because I genuinely believe the people who’ve walked through the darkest moments often have the most powerful stories to share. If one conversation helps just one person realise they’re not alone, then this project has done exactly what I hoped it would. So, if you’ve got a story that deserves to be heard, or you know someone whose story could help others, I’d love to hear from you. 📧 [email redacted] Let’s tell the stories that matter.

Former Muslims - Leaving Islam Stories Podcast

Podcast looking for guests; if you've left Islam and want to share your story, I want to hear from you Hi, I host Everybody’s Wrong https://www.youtube.com/@EverybodysWrongPod, a video/audio podcast where guests have a platform to share their stories that go against the grain, things they were judged for, choices they stand by even when others didn't understand them. I believe leaving Islam tends to be exactly that kind of story. So far my guests have had stories of illness at birth, unhealthy family dynamics, fasting and biohacking, and drug addiction. I am interested in everything that sounds controversial but is often actually misunderstood, everything that makes us human. Some of the things I'd love to explore: What did the process of leaving Islam actually feel like from the inside? What do people (on either sides) consistently get wrong about your experience? What did you lose, what did you gain, and what's more complicated than either of those? How do you see it now, looking back? I am based in the UK and would love to do an in-person podcast, but online works just as well. Whether irl or online, you can stay fully anonymous by using pseudonym, voice and face alteration etc. Do not hesitate to reply to this post, dm me on reddit or email [email redacted] Thank you very much for your time :) Josie

US Family Care Providers - Dropping Public Coverage & Solutions

Healthcare and Coverage in the US Hello everyone! I am a graduate student working with a lab about ECE and I am currently working on an article about healthcare premiums and now that so many people are dropping out of programs like Covered California and Medicare is it common for this community to choose to be uninsured? I am curious if anyone is picking up a second job to get coverage that way or what are the alternatives? I saw that medicare enrollment dropped significantly this year and I immediately worried about all the family care providers out there. I am just curious if anyone has insight on this? Thank you!

Rural Americans - AI Impact On Healthcare Access & Wearables

Do you live in rural America? I'd love to interview you! My name is Arielle Zionts, I'm a rural health reporter at KFF Health News, a U.S.-based national, nonprofit media outlet. Do you live in rural America? If so, I'd love to set up a phone interview with you for a story I'm working on! I'd ask what you think about artificial intelligence (AI) in rural healthcare. For example, do you think AI will help keep rural hospitals open and make it easier for rural people to access care and improve their health? Would you (or do you already) use health-related AI, like wearing an AI-backed smartwatch or other "wearable" that sends data to your doctor? Or letting your doctor use AI to "listen" to your appointment to help them save time with their notes/charting? I can let you know more about these and other kinds of AI health tech if you aren't famliar with them. You can learn more about KFF Health News here and see my stories here. If you're interested in doing an interview please email me at [email redacted] so we can set up a time to chat. I will not use any written responses under this post or any past posts in this group, I'll only use info I get from people who agree to do phone interviews. Thank you! Arielle

Current & Former SSRI Users - Mental Health Journeys & Stigma

True resilience often requires us to ask for help. Sometimes, that help comes in the form of medication, and we need to normalize talking about it. For years, I navigated my day-to-day life with the help of anti-anxiety medication, and spent over a year on SSRIs. Today, while I am no longer taking them, I frequently reflect on that chapter. I think about the burnout and stress that led me there, the stability the medication provided, and the healthy mechanisms I rely on today to manage my well-being. We don't talk enough about the reality of managing mental health while keeping up with the demands of life and career. I want to change that on the SMC Podcast. I am looking to interview individuals who are open to sharing their own mental well-being journeys regarding anti-anxiety medication or SSRIs (past or present).

Massachusetts Tenants Without AC - Impact Of Max Indoor Temp Policy

Living without air conditioning in this heat wave Hello all! Hope you're doing well and staying cool in this heat wave. I'm a reporter at The Boston Globe working on an article about the push for Massachusetts to implement a maximum indoor temperature, which could require landlords to provide an air conditioner capable of keeping the apartment cool. I'm looking to speak to tenants in the state who do not have AC in their apartments or have inadequate cooling (e.g. a window unit that isn't powerful enough to cool the space) about how this policy would impact them. Hoping to ask what impact the heat has on people (sleep, health), how they try to stay cool, etc. If anyone in this group is in this position and has thoughts, please reach out!

Households of 2+ - Transform Health by Cutting Ultra-Processed Foods

Hi everyone, I hope this is okay to post here - admins please delete if not. I work on C4's **What Not to Eat** and we're currently casting for series 2. We're looking for households of at least two people who want to genuinely transform their health through diet - whether that's tackling fatigue, joint pain, brain fog, weight, or simply wanting to feel better day to day. The evidence around cutting out ultra-processed foods is remarkable - better energy, reduced inflammation, improved gut health, clearer skin, sharper focus and more stable mood are just some of the benefits people experience. We pair households with real expert guidance and practical support to make that change. This could be a brilliant opportunity to share your story and help others. If you're interested or know someone who would love to take part, please email **[[email redacted]](mailto:[email redacted])** Thank you so much, Hope x

Owners of Dogs Fed Kirkland Nature's Domain - DCM Cases

Last summer I lost my dog Felix — a four and a half year old, healthy, pedigreed Weimaraner who'd been screened for cardiac issues by his breeder. The diagnosis was acute dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM). He died in my arms the afternoon he was diagnosed, straining to breathe. Being a reporter, I needed to understand how this could happen to an otherwise healthy and well-cared for dog. What I found led me to the manufacturer of the dog food I used, an FDA investigation, and a class action lawsuit that will take place early next year. Last week, a federal class action was filed againstCostco Wholesale over its Kirkland Signature Nature's Domain grain-free dog food — including the Salmon and Sweet Potato formula— alleging the same cardiac risks I found in my own research. I'm writing about it — and I'd like to hear from anyone who's had a similar experience.
