Medical Students & Early-Career Doctors - Climate Medicine Careers

🌍Climate medicine is still rarely taught in Korean medical schools — and we want to change that. We are To Be Doctor, a South Korean medical student organization publishing a magazine for medical students and physicians. Our upcoming issue focuses on climate and medicine, a topic that remains relatively unfamiliar in Korea despite its growing importance in global medical education, clinical practice, public health, and healthcare systems. For this issue, we are preparing a feature that introduces climate medicine as an emerging career field to Korean medical students. We are looking to hear from people working at the intersection of medicine, climate change, and health, including: (1) medical students, residents, or early-career doctors pursuing climate medicine (2) combining clinical practice with climate-related research, advocacy, or education (3) physicians working in climate-related NGOs, global health organizations, or international institutions (4) fellows or graduate students in climate & health, planetary health, or healthcare sustainability programs (5) professionals working on climate resilience, health equity, or sustainable healthcare What we are asking A short email interview — about 5 questions, 10–15 minutes to answer. We will ask about your career path, your current work, and what advice you would give to medical students who are beginning to explore climate and health. Deadline We would appreciate responses by May 29. In Korea, climate medicine still feels distant to most medical students. Many of them have never encountered this field in their curriculum, and have no idea that it could be part of their future as physicians. Your voice could be the first time a Korean medical student hears that this career exists! Even a few sentences from you — about how you came into this field, what you do, and why it matters — could open a door for someone who is just beginning to ask "what kind of doctor do I want to be?" If you would be willing to participate, or if you know someone whose perspective should be included, please comment below or send me a direct message. Thank you for helping us bring climate medicine to the attention of future doctors in Korea. #ClimateMedicine #ClimateAndHealth #PlanetaryHealth #PlanetaryHealthAlliance #SustainableHealthcare #MedicalEducation #GlobalHealth #ClimateHealthEquity

Counselors & Theorists - Psychic Apparatus & Sustainability Regime

Why I’m looking at the "Psychic Apparatus" through the lens of Critical Theory. As a clinician, I spend my days navigating the complexities of the human mind. But as a researcher, I’ve become increasingly interested in how our social and economic "regimes" shape the very structure of our subjectivity. In my current work—and for my upcoming books, 'Therapy Yet to Come' and 'The Psychic Apparatus'—I’m exploring the intersection of clinical psychiatry/psychotherapy and the Frankfurt School. Specifically, I’m looking at how the "psychic apparatus" is influenced by what I call the "regime of sustainability." Is our current model of mental health simply helping individuals adapt to a specific political economy, or can therapy become a site of genuine critical resistance? I’m excited to be diving deeper into these questions, especially as I await the results of my application for the Horkheimer Fellowship at the Institute for Social Research. I believe that for therapy to truly have a "future," it must first reckon with the "unilectical" subjectivity fostered by modern institutional psychiatry. I'd love to hear from fellow counselors and theorists: How do you see social structures manifesting in the clinical encounter? #CriticalTheory #Psychotherapy #FrankfurtSchool #MentalHealth #Philosophy #ClinicalPsychology

Celebrities & Semi-Well-Known Figures - National Newspaper Slots

What I'm looking for from PRs right now... I thought it might be helpful to outline what I'd like to see in my (email) inbox from PRs, organisations and business owners. And on the flipside, what I can offer you. What I'm looking for: + More celebrities/well-known people to interview for regular slots in national newspapers. (I need people who are well-known (or semi well-known) to the average person). + Tech/human rights/sustainability/travel/environment stories in/around Mexico City. Tip: Don't just email me about an organisation. Tell me what the story is. + From July: Sustainability-focused stories from outside of the regions I'm reporting on. These need to be feature ideas (I don't cover press releases - unsure what I mean? Come along to one of my workshops or check out my portfolio page on my website). + From July: Regular or ad hoc work involving interviewing and writing up case studies. Have any other content work? Drop me a DM. + Travel and sustainability stories from the Netherlands (pitches from June). I am planning to be there in October/November. (I will be looking for a place to stay, ideally around Oud West, so shout if you know anywhere). + Hosting opportunities: Moderating panels, hosting fireside interviews and round-table opportunities from July '26. Can be abroad as long as it doesn't involve flying (I love a train journey, though) as I can't justify a flight (for environmental reasons) for a panel discussion. Last year I hosted the fireside chat interview at Semrush's conference in Amsterdam (pictured) while I was already there for a six-week stint. There's a blush-worthy testimonial from the organisers on my LinkedIn profile. What I can offer: + Help bolstering your press coverage and relationships with journalists via my popular How to Secure Media Coverage workshop, which thousands of PRs and business owners have attended. The next sessions are in Newcastle, Manchester, London and Zoom from June. I am also available for private sessions, in-person and online. There's also an online course packed with loads of resources and templates. Testimonials all over my website. Links below. + Power Hours with me or another specialist hack in my journalist content agency. Want to pick a journalist's brains on how to improve a pitch? Like to drum up story ideas? Have a journalist write a knock-out thought leadership post? More details below but you can also DM me. + A free bi-monthly newsletter offering insider intel on working as a journalist, PR tips, and industry news. Join thousands of readers by subscribing via the link below. + And if anyone is looking for a seaside break, I rent out my loft apartment in Margate (two mins from the sea/Turner etc) when I'm not there.

Mexico City Locals - Sustainability & Human Rights & Travel Stories

After a month in Costa Rica, today I'm heading to Mexico City for five weeks. Oh, the joy of staying in one place, not unpacking/packing every few days, returning to my old gym there, and seeing some familiar faces. And one of the main draws - devouring Mexican food. I actively avoid non-owner occupied Airbnbs as I know the impact they have on communities so I'm happy that I found a sublet (owner is going on holiday) and it's about five minutes from where I was based last year. The flat actually belongs to the owner of a bakery that was directly opposite my place last year. Anyhow, I'm looking for sustainability, human rights and travel stories in and around CDMX. Drop any details below and will follow up if they're of interest. #journorequest Picture: me sat in the garden of cooking class organisation Aura Cocina Mexico.

[...] My inbox is always open [email redacted] and I especially love strong opinions.

Mastercard Spokesperson - Sponsoring White Christian Nationalist Event

Pete Hegseth to headline the event "rededicating our country as One Nation under God."

Question: How does Mastercard reconcile sponsoring Trump's white Christian nationalist event, presented by a president who is fomenting racist hatred and violence, with the company's mission established by the Center for Inclusive Growth? Shamina Singh is Founder & President, Center for Inclusive Growth EVP, Sustainability at Mastercard. Center for Inclusive Growth: "We’re putting Mastercard’s powerful assets in service of people and the planet, using insights and influence for impact."

Physicians Who Sold Practices to Private Equity - Care Impact

Today, Working Healthcare hits 100 episodes. And for episode 100, I wanted to take on one of the biggest forces reshaping American healthcare: Private equity in medicine. I sat down in my Delray Beach podcast studio with Anna Sobkiv, MBA, executive director of Commercial Healthcare Services at J.P. Morgan, for a conversation about physician practice ownership, healthcare finance and the future of independent medicine. The question at the center of this episode is not abstract. Is private equity helping physician practices survive? Or is it quietly redefining who controls medicine? Anna works with physicians and healthcare businesses on growth, acquisition and succession planning. In this episode, she explains why private equity continues to accelerate in healthcare, why certain medical specialties attract investor interest and what these deals can mean for physician autonomy, practice ownership and long-term sustainability. We also talk about what happens when Wall Street moves closer to the exam room. Because this is not just about business structure. It is about clinical decision-making. It is about access. It is about whether independent physicians can continue to practice medicine without becoming employees inside a financial model they did not create. And, ultimately, it is about patients. Anna also shares her perspective as a woman building a career in healthcare finance and advising clients at the highest levels of banking in a field where women remain underrepresented. One hundred episodes in, this is exactly why I created Working Healthcare. To explain the system. To question the power structures. To call out what is not working. And to give physicians, patients and healthcare leaders a place to talk honestly about what is happening behind the scenes. Listen to episode 100 of Working Healthcare: 🎧 Spotify: https://lnkd.in/eaE4PiR2 ▶️ YouTube: https://lnkd.in/eZ8f8bSG 🍎 Apple Podcasts: https://lnkd.in/erAXfWSC Have you worked in a medical practice affected by private equity? Are you a physician who sold, stayed independent or is weighing what comes next? Are you a patient who saw care change after investors entered the picture? I want to hear your story. 🌐 Share your private equity story with me here: https://lnkd.in/ec3YN37s Thank you to every guest, listener and person who has helped Working Healthcare reach 100 episodes. We are just getting started. #WorkingHealthcare #PrivateEquity #IndependentMedicine #HealthcareFinance #PhysicianOwnership

Association Meeting Planners - Tiered Programming & Evolving Skills

Association friends: I'm working on the next set of Associations Now Deep Dives, and I'm looking for sources/examples for two pieces on meetings: 1) For one, I'm looking for examples of associations that have successfully introduced premium experiences or other forms of tiered programming. That can include specialized workshops, VIP meetings with big-name keynote speakers, but I'm eager to hear about more outside-the-box ideas. 2) For the second, I'd love to hear from association meeting planners themselves about how their required skill sets have changed. Yes, AI, but what about data analytics, sustainability, experience design, and on and on? What does a planner need to know now that wasn't even a consideration 5-10 years ago? If you have any leads, or want to volunteer yourself, leave a comment or drop me a line at [email redacted]. Thank you!

Sterile Processing Leaders - Microplastics From Sterilization Wrap

We move thousands of pounds of it every week. Almost no one is asking what it's doing to our bodies. Non-woven sterilization wrap is 99% polypropylene — plastic #5. Here's what the data is quietly telling us: THE SCALE — Roughly 225 million pounds of blue wrap is thrown out by U.S. hospitals every year (Practice Greenhealth) — 19% of all operating room waste is sterilization wrap (U.S. Environmental Protection Agency) — Less than 1% of polypropylene is actually recycled THE MICROPLASTIC QUESTION — Non-woven polypropylene was named in peer-reviewed literature this year as a major hidden source of micro- and nano-plastic pollution (Environmental Science & Technology, 2025) — Disposable polypropylene masks — the same Spunbond-Meltblown-Spunbond construction used in blue wrap — shed between 66 and 1,867 microplastic particles per mask — Mechanical friction is the single biggest driver of fiber shedding. Our processes are nothing BUT friction: folding, wrapping, loading case carts, transport, opening trays, re-draping THE EXPOSURE — Humans ingest an estimated 74,000 to 113,000 microplastic particles every year — Sterile Processing Department technicians and operating room teams handle this material daily, for full shifts, often in warm humid environments where fiber release accelerates Here's the question I can't stop circling back to: Are we concerned about microplastics in non-woven wrap? Not theoretically. Practically. For the tech opening a case cart. For the surgeon snapping open a tray chest-high over a sterile field. For the patient on the table. Rigid containers exist. Reusable wraps exist. But most of us haven't even named this as a risk yet — let alone measured it. I'd love to hear from: — Sterile Processing Department leaders: is this on your radar? — Infection Prevention: where does this sit against your other priorities? — Sustainability officers: any facility-level microplastic data in healthcare? — Researchers: what studies specifically examine blue wrap shedding inside the sterile chain? Let's talk about it. #SterileProcessing #InfectionPrevention #HealthcareSustainability #Microplastics #OperatingRoom #PatientSafety #LeanHealthcare #AAMI

Timber Importers & Compliance Teams - EUDR Impact on Supply Chains

Journalist request: I’m working on a story about the EU Deforestation Regulation (EUDR) and its impact on timber supply chains. I’m looking to speak to people in the industry about how this is playing out in practice: – Timber importers / traders – Sawmills / processors / manufacturers – Compliance / sustainability / due diligence teams – Anyone working on traceability or geolocation requirements I’m interested in both the preparation challenges and practicalities (systems, costs, data, readiness, etc.). Happy to keep comments confidential where needed. DM me or comment below if you’re open to a short chat. #timber #EUDR #deforestation #regulation

Hoteliers & Travel Designers - Mindful Sustainable Journeys

Hello everyone, I’ve been quietly building something close to my heart - "The Conscious Escapade" to be aired on Spotify. This isn’t a travel podcast in the traditional sense. It’s a space for slower, more intentional conversations around how we explore the world - thoughtfully, responsibly, and with meaning. As I shape the upcoming episodes, I’m looking to feature a few carefully chosen voices: – Hoteliers rethinking luxury through sustainability – Travel designers crafting more mindful journeys – Conservationists and cultural custodians – Founders building with purpose in travel If this resonates with your work, or someone comes to mind, I’d love to hear from you. Not looking for volume - only conversations that feel aligned. #TheConsciousEscapade #TheEscapade

Urban Planners in Asia - Infrastructure & Sustainability Projects

I’m looking to hear from people doing thoughtful work that deserves stronger editorial treatment. Through The Future Atlas, I’m especially interested in projects, ideas and practitioner perspectives related to cities, infrastructure, sustainability, energy, water, materials and long-term change across Asia. That may take the form of a project feature, an essay, an interview, a visual story, or simply a line of enquiry that is not getting the attention it deserves. I am particularly drawn to work that is grounded, well observed and useful—not just promotional. If you are working on something along those lines, feel free to message me or [email redacted].

CSOs & Heads of Sustainability - Leadership Profiles

Here's why I absolutely love interviewing CSOs: 💚 Passion: You've got to be passionate to be a #ChiefSustainabilityOfficer. These people have dedicated their careers to making a positive impact on the world, and it shows. 👁️🗨️ No-nonsense: At the same time, years of struggle to get internal buy-in and adapt to external realities have taught them to be extremely realistic. They tell it like it is - which is always a plus for a journalist. 🙇 Humility: No matter how much they have achieved, CSOs always credit their teams, NGOs and other stakeholders that have supported these milestones. They know sustainability is a team sport, and they leave their egos at the door. These fascinating conversations result in engaging, down-to-earth profile articles that others in this field truly appreciate for their honesty and the practical advice they contain. See our most recent example here with David Grall: https://lnkd.in/e2bENw4i So if you're a Chief Sustainability Officer or Head of Sustainability, please get in touch to tell me your story: you'll make my day, and you'll contribute to building other senior sustainability leaders up to face this collective challenge.

Lagos Wecyclers Founder - Cargo Bike Rewards Recycling Model

Lagos has 21 million people, and it produces 9,000 tonnes of its waste every single day. Somewhere in that chaos, someone saw a goldmine, a cargo bike. In 2012, Bilikiss Adebiyi-Abiola flew back from MIT and looked at the waste challenge through a different lens. Where others saw an overwhelming environmental problem, she saw an opportunity to redesign how value flows through communities. That insight led to the creation of Wecyclers, a rewards-for-recycling platform that reimagines waste Wecyclers Corporation was built as a low-cost waste management infrastructure that combines mobile technology with cargo bike logistics to make recycling accessible within underserved communities. By introducing incentives, the model encourages households to adopt environmentally responsible habits while simultaneously creating economic participation at the community level. This is a reminder that circular economy models don’t begin with waste; they begin with how you design value.💡 This is part of my ongoing series #HowSustainabilityWorks, where I break down circular economy models, ESG frameworks, and the ventures building a regenerative future. I’m mapping circular economy ventures across the globe, and if there’s a venture I’ve missed, I’d love to hear from you.

Indian Print SME Practitioners for Net Zero Certification Research

⚠️ What Years in Certification Taught Me About Print Verification At a major certification body, I audited hundreds of print factories. Here is what I learned: 📌 1. DOCUMENTATION IS NOT EVIDENCE. It is a claim that requires verification. 📌 2. WHAT GETS MEASURED GETS MANAGED. But only if the measurement is trusted. 📌 3. THIRD-PARTY CERTIFICATION ADDS CREDIBILITY. But only if the auditor understands the context. 📌 4. SMALL IMPROVEMENTS SUSTAINED BEAT BIG PROMISES ABANDONED. Consistency matters more than ambition. 📌 5. THE FACTORIES THAT IMPROVED MOST HAD LEADERSHIP COMMITMENT. Not just compliance pressure. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ 🔴 NOW I AM RESEARCHING NET ZERO FOR INDIAN PRINT SMEs. The same principles apply. Carbon data without verification is not accountability. It is assertion. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ ❓ I WANT TO HEAR FROM YOU: 1️⃣ Which lesson resonates most with your experience? 2️⃣ Have you seen certification drive real change — or just compliance? 3️⃣ What makes an auditor credible in your view? Drop a comment or send me a message. Building this with practitioner input. ━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━━ #Audit #Certification #PrintIndustry #NetZero #Sustainability #ESG #IndianManufacturing #netzeroprint #indianprint

Women Executives in Luxury - Anonymous Career Change Interviews

Quit or stay? She stayed almost a year. Crying every morning on her way to work. She had what looked like a perfect start: Permanent contract straight out of the school. Top-tier audit firm. Clear career path. But every day looked the same: Spreadsheets she didn’t understand. Tasks without context. A job that made no sense, and nobody to explain why. Alignment with her values: 1/10. Then she lost a parent. While grieving, she still heard things like: “Already leaving?” at 9pm. “You really don’t look good today” — from people who knew exactly what was happening. She didn’t call it harassment at the time. She calls it that now. She asked to move to a role closer to her values, still inside the firm. The answer: “You were hired for this job. You stay.” That “no” made the decision for her. She resigned on the last day of her trial period. No signed contract. Just a verbal promise elsewhere. A few years later: → Sustainability role in the luxury sector → Satisfaction: 8.5/10 → Salary: +66% The numbers look like a clean success story. But years later, her nervous system hasn’t fully forgotten. The body keeps the score. The risk wasn’t leaving. The risk was staying too long. Now tell me, if a woman tells you “I’m in a ‘good’ job that’s destroying me, but I’m scared to leave after only a few months”, what would you tell her? A. Push through for the CV B. Leave as soon as possible C. Negotiate an internal move first I am buiding Amaya Ora to turn real decision patterns into structured insights. An anonymous library of comparable professional trajectories, designed to help women navigate high-stakes career dilemmas with real data, not opinions. During this first phase, I am focusing on the luxury industry, a sector where careers are prestigious, yet decisions can be slow and complex. I am looking to interview women who are: → 30-45 → Corporate mid to senior level → Who made a significant career decision in the past 3–5 years 30 minutes. Fully anonymous. DM me or comment “Interested.” #CareerDecision #WomenInLeadership #LuxuryIndustry #AmayaOra

Sustainable Tulum Hotels with Dive Access for Escaping NY

Seeking Cancún + Tulum Hotels ASAP I previously requested hotels in Cozumel, and I retract that request. I spoke with a dive shop there and learned that it’s rough-water season and that the port was closed for 3 days this week. The same thing happened last time I was in Cancún, when I tried (unsuccessfully) to get to Cozumel to dive. As such, I’m shifting my diving plans to the “mainland” side, and I plan to base myself in/near Tulum and the Sian Ka’an Biosphere. I’m open to hosting at a property there, but only if it falls into one of these categories: A strong focus on sustainability Strong connection to scuba diving (on-site shop or can dive from shore) Has unique accommodations (geodome, treehouse, lux tipi) To pitch me: Subject line: Tulum Hotels + Property Name Email: [email redacted] Pitch by: EOD Tues, Feb 10
