Sharon Wright, musician, certified life coach and naturopath, is passionate about supporting people to live a soulful life. Her philosophy is to consistently evolve in love through relationships that offer observation and space. She’s passionate about holistic wellness and feels a holistic connection between the body and its environment through vibrational awareness and presence. Sharon is committed to consistent learning and has completed many energy healing modalities, but she also understands that theory isn’t everything and love must be lived! She realised that the energetic quality of the body’s movements directly effect the quality of thoughts. She would guide her daughter with gentle reconnecting voice techniques during panic attacks that she suffered as a teen and later added these soulful voice techniques to her coaching programs to help her clients reconnect and express themselves through a body moving in the grace of truth, transparency and love. Sharon’s working life is varied but beautifully creates a unique tapestry that helps her serve her clients. She performed in pop bands in her early 20s, but finally settled in Spain where she met her husband and taught music and English both privately and at an International School in Madrid. After an impromptu move back to the UK in 2011, Sharon completed a level 5 HR management diploma and flourished in her role as she developed her communication, people and relationships skills. She went on to become the company director. Her love of people led to her completing an ICF accredited diploma in transformational coaching which perfectly complemented her career and later, her business. Sharon is speaking in the annual ‘Lead With Your Voice Summit’ and is currently writing her debut book ‘Bully’ which is a story about imposition and how the voice can be used to harm or heal. She also writes music to clear buried emotions. The songs are produced with energetic integrity to facilitate healing. “Energetic integrity means making love the first movement of your day-to-day. From the food you eat and won’t eat to the commitment to purpose in life and all who are a part of it, energy is everything.” Sharon lives in the South of Spain with her husband of 33 years.

April Saunders is a Registered Dietitian with over 15 years of experience supporting individuals and families to make healthier food and lifestyle choices.   April has a wealth of experience with supporting different populations with healthy eating.   She’s hacked her way through jungle foliage and cooked while watching hairy tarantulas overhead in a remote community in Guyana, South America. While there, she worked with a non-profit group to provide healthy eating workshops to breastfeeding mothers and support subsistence farmers with their acouchi ant problem.   April has also shared a hot bowl of whale blubber soup with community elders in a remote First Nations community in Canada’s great white north in the territory of Nunavut. While in Nunavut, she was the inaugural dietetic student to work alongside community members to serve the breakfast program to underserved populations and learn first hand about the inequities and systemic barriers that prevent adults but particularly the children from having access to healthy food, while honoring their culture and heritage.   For most of her career as a dietitian and Certified Diabetes Educator, she has seen how challenging it can be for people to make healthy food and activity choices.   Fueled by her interest in how policies and the built environment affect people's ability to “make the healthy choice the easy choice”, she completed her Masters of Public Health at the University of Waterloo in Waterloo, Ontario. And then things changed for April when she finally acknowledged her own struggles with gluten intolerance.   For years, April ate bowls of cereal, pasta galore, regular bread, buns, etc. And was totally fine. Until she wasn't. It started with burping and bloating but then progressed to include painful nausea and fatiguing brain fog.   For years, April would be doubled over in bed while their boys and Jason rode bikes to the park - painful in more ways than one. She hated missing out on doing things with her family and was so frustrated with the fact that she couldn't figure out what was going on with her stomach.   April finally decided to look into the stomach issues that she was living with for so long. The breaking point wasn’t the phone call from the surgeon giving her the results from a gastroscopy and biopsy (inflammation of the stomach lining likely caused by non-celiac gluten sensitivity.)   For her, what hit home was when April’s hubby said: “I can’t remember a time when your stomach WASN’T bothering you.” Yikes. That was her wake up call. Fast-forward to when April finally cut gluten out of her life for good and she now feels like herself again.   Now, April’s on a furious mission to get the word out about gluten intolerance and help you shortcut your way to feeling better way faster than she did.   After years of supporting people 1:1, April has increased her impact and reach by supporting her audience with her digital products, seasonal recipe books, and sharing easy, gluten-free recipes on her blog and YouTube channel.   Think gluten is a problem for you too? Get a jump start on feeling better fast and going gluten-free without the headaches by grabbing her PDF List of Foods to Cut Out NOW.   April lives in Southwestern Ontario in Canada with her husband, 2 hockey playing sons and her stuffie-obsessed red retriever, Brinnley.

Donna Goldman is a Culinary Intuitive, Health Supportive Private Chef, mindfulness and sustainability coach, and the creator behind Recipes 4 Survival, a multimedia platform exploring mindful meals and sustainable living. With more than 26 years of professional culinary experience as a high-net-worth private chef, her perspective has been shaped by an extensive personal archive of recipes, techniques, and kitchen solutions that have stood the test of time. She believes that eating well should be both deeply pleasurable and practical—and that the choices made in the kitchen can ripple outward into the way we live and consume. Donna’s work extends beyond the plate. She is the Director of The Refill Revolution, a systems-level initiative focused on challenging the disposable culture embedded in everyday consumer goods. Its vision is simple but consequential: to develop a new model of consumption that makes it possible to refill, reuse, and rethink what we consume—and ultimately erode the mindless throwaway mentality built into modern life. Her perspective connects individual mindfulness with larger cultural and systemic change, from what we put on our plates to what we put in our shopping carts. Through her writing, teaching, podcasting, and culinary work, Donna encourages people to question the assumption that convenience must come at the expense of health, sustainability, or the planet. Her approach is grounded in curiosity, practicality, and the belief that meaningful change can begin with something as ordinary—and as powerful—as what we choose to eat, use, and consume every day.

While the primary purpose is to promote the event, it goes beyond a mere advertisement by focusing on the newsworthy aspects that would capture the media's interest. The benefits of a press release for an event A press release is an official statement issued to media outlets to communicate newsworthy information. When it comes to events, a well-written press release helps generate buzz, attract attendees, and secure coverage from journalists, bloggers, and influencers. Press releases are still one of the most effective ways to: Gain visibility in search engines One of the key benefits of a press release for an event is the potential for increased online visibility. When optimized with relevant keywords and distributed across press release platforms, your event can gain higher rankings in search engine results. This helps people searching for related events, news, or activities to discover your event more easily, driving traffic from various online platforms. Reach local or targeted audiences A press release allows you to reach both local and targeted audiences effectively. Whether you're aiming to attract local community members or a specific industry group, a press release helps tailor your message to those most likely to be interested. By sending the release to local news outlets, niche blogs, or industry-specific media, you can ensure your event reaches the right audience, increasing the likelihood of attendance and engagement. Build your brand’s credibility Issuing a press release for an event enhances your brand’s credibility. Media coverage lends authority and trustworthiness to your event, which can help your organization stand out in a crowded market. When a reputable journalist or publication covers your event, it signals to the public that your event is worth paying attention to, bolstering your brand’s image. Drive traffic to your event A well-written press release with a clear call to action can drive significant traffic to your event page or registration site. By including essential links within the release, you encourage readers to take the next step—whether it's purchasing tickets, signing up, or learning more about the event. This direct engagement can help boost attendance and ensure that your event reaches capacity. Boost social media engagement A press release can serve as a foundation for your event’s social media promotion. Once your press release is distributed, it can be shared across your social platforms to increase exposure. Journalists and influencers who pick up the story may also share it with their followers, which can lead to more social media buzz, greater engagement, and a broader reach for your event. Establish relationships with the media Sending out a press release helps build relationships with journalists, bloggers, and influencers in your industry or local area. Over time, consistently sharing newsworthy press releases increases the chances that media professionals will cover your events, creating ongoing media support for future announcements. Create a lasting digital footprint Press releases can remain accessible online for a long time, providing a lasting digital footprint for your event. Even after the event concludes, a well-crafted press release can continue to serve as a record of your organization’s activities, helping to establish a long-term narrative of your brand’s involvement in key events or initiatives.

Get published Different types of event press releases Event press releases can vary depending on the type of event being promoted, each with a slightly different focus or tone. Here are some of the most common types: Product Launch Event Press Release Conference or Seminar Press Release Charity or Fundraising Event Press Release Grand Opening Event Press Release Award Ceremony Press Release Cultural or Entertainment Event Press Release Community Event Press Release Virtual Event Press Release Each of these press release types has its own focus and audience, but they all share the same goal: to inform, engage, and generate interest from media outlets and potential attendees. How to write a press release for an event Writing an effective press release for an event involves understanding its key components and following a structured approach. This guide outlines the essential elements every event press release should include, along with step-by-step instructions for crafting a compelling announcement. 1. Start with a compelling headline The headline is your first impression, and it must be attention-grabbing and instantly engaging. A compelling headline should capture the essence of the event in just a few words, piquing interest while conveying key details like the event's unique angle or primary attraction. Aim to make it active and specific, with language that motivates action—whether it’s joining, experiencing, or discovering something exciting. By keeping it to 60-80 characters, the headline remains concise yet powerful, delivering a clear sense of what attendees can look forward to. This quick, catchy introduction is crucial for making your event stand out among others. Example: "Don’t Miss Out! [Event Name] Brings Excitement to [Location]" "Get Ready for [Event Name]: A Must-Attend Event in [Location]!" "Experience [Unique Feature] at [Event Name] – Perfect for [Audience]!" "Join [Event Name] in [Location] for an Unforgettable [Main Attraction]" "Celebrate [Theme] at [Event Name] – Limited Spots for [Audience]" 2. Craft an engaging lead paragraph The dateline sets the stage by providing the location and date of the press release. Following this, the lead paragraph establishes the "who, what, when, where, and why" of the event. It acts as your hook, offering the most newsworthy information right away. Keep it engaging and informative, summarizing the event's core details in a few sentences. Example: “On [Date], [Organization] is hosting [Event Name] in [Location], aimed at [Purpose or Target Audience]. This event promises to be an unforgettable experience centered around [Key Theme].” 3. Provide detailed event information Now, dive into the specifics of the event. Start by explaining the purpose of the event, detailing why it is happening and who it is intended for. This helps readers understand the significance and relevance of the gathering. Next, highlight the agenda by mentioning any keynote speakers, performances, or workshops that will take place, emphasizing the value and insights attendees can expect to gain. Finally, provide clear details about how people can attend the event, whether it is in-person or virtual. Include the physical location, date, and time for in-person events, and ensure that virtual access details, such as links or registration requirements, are clearly explained so that participants can easily join. 4. Add a quote from a key stakeholder A quote from the event organizer, sponsor, or a special guest adds a personal touch and builds credibility. This quote should reflect the importance of the event and provide insight into what attendees can look forward to. A meaningful quote helps convey the event's value and enhances its appeal to potential attendees. Example: “We are excited to bring together innovators and enthusiasts at [Event Name], where we’ll explore the future of [Topic],” said [Name, Title]. “This gathering is a unique opportunity for [Target Audience] to connect and share ideas.” 5. End with a clear Call to Action The call to action is crucial for guiding readers on what to do next. Whether it’s registering for the event, visiting a website, or contacting for more information, make your CTA clear and direct. This encourages immediate action and makes it easy for readers to take the next step. 5. End with a clear Call to Action The call to action is crucial for guiding readers on what to do next. Whether it’s registering for the event, visiting a website, or contacting for more information, make your CTA clear and direct. This encourages immediate action and makes it easy for readers to take the next step. 6. Don't forget boilerplate information The boilerplate section provides background information about the event’s organizer or host. This brief paragraph typically describes the organization’s mission, expertise, and relevant achievements. Including a link to the organization’s website allows readers to learn more about them. This helps establish credibility and context for the event. 7. Include contact information Conclude the press release by providing contact details for someone who can answer media inquiries. Include the name, email address, and phone number of the primary contact person. If there are relevant social media accounts for the event or organization, consider listing those as well. This information facilitates communication and allows interested parties to easily reach out for further information. By following these steps and including these key components, your event press release will be clear, informative, and engaging, making it easier for readers to understand the event's significance and take action.

Get published Common mistakes to avoid when writing a press release for an event Burying the lead Don’t wait too long to provide essential details. The most important information, including the who, what, when, where, and why of your event, should be front and center in the headline and first paragraph. If readers have to dig through the press release to find out what the event is, they’ll quickly lose interest and move on to something else. Being too salesy Press releases are meant to inform, not to advertise. While it’s tempting to use promotional language to hype up your event, this approach can turn off journalists and readers. Focus on the facts and the newsworthiness of your event, providing compelling reasons why it deserves coverage without sounding overly promotional. Using jargon Keep the language simple and accessible. Readers may not be familiar with industry-specific terms or acronyms, which can alienate them. Opt for clear and straightforward language that conveys your message effectively, making it easier for anyone to understand the significance of your event. Not including a CTA Always include a clear call to action (CTA) so readers know what to do next. Whether it’s registering for the event, visiting your website for more information, or contacting someone for further details, a press release without a CTA is a wasted opportunity to engage your audience and drive action. Neglecting the audience Always consider who will be reading your press release. Tailor the message and tone to your audience—whether it’s local media, industry professionals, or the general public. Understanding your audience's interests and preferences will help you craft a more impactful and relevant press release that resonates with the intended readers. When to send out a press release for your event Timing is crucial when it comes to sending out a press release for your event. Ideally, you should aim to distribute your press release at least 4 to 6 weeks before the event date. This allows journalists and media outlets enough time to plan their coverage, which is especially important for larger events that may require more extensive lead time. For smaller events or last-minute announcements, a 1 to 2-week notice may suffice, but it's best to err on the side of giving more notice. Consider the timing of your release in relation to other significant events or holidays. Avoid sending your press release on days when major news stories are likely to dominate headlines, as your announcement may get overlooked. Monitoring the media landscape and selecting a strategic day to distribute your press release can significantly enhance its visibility and likelihood of coverage. How to distribute a press release for an event Start by identifying your target audience, which may include local journalists, media outlets, bloggers, industry influencers, and community groups relevant to your event. You can build a targeted media list based on this audience. Leverage your own channels such as your website, social media platforms, and email newsletters. Sharing the press release through these channels not only increases visibility but also encourages your existing audience to share it within their networks. Lastly, don’t hesitate to follow up with key journalists and media contacts to remind them about the event and answer any questions they may have. Engaging personally can enhance your chances of getting coverage. Need a press release for your event? Looking to get your event noticed?

It’s an opportunity to showcase your expertise, reach a wider audience, and enhance your credibility. However, achieving this goal requires more than just submitting an article—it demands strategy, persistence, and an understanding of how the publishing industry works. Here’s a step-by-step guide to help you craft a winning pitch and boost your chances of getting published. 1. Identify the right magazine Before you pitch your article, it's crucial to find magazines that align with your topic and target audience. Research publications that cater to your niche and readership. Consider their style, tone, and the types of articles they typically publish. For instance, if you’re writing about health and wellness, look for magazines that focus on these subjects rather than general lifestyle publications. Understanding the magazine's mission and values will help you tailor your pitch and increase your chances of getting accepted. 2. Develop a unique angle Ask yourself: what fresh insights can you offer? What experiences or knowledge do you have that others may not? Developing a unique angle not only makes your article more compelling but also shows the editor that you’ve put thought into your submission. 3. Create a compelling pitch Your pitch is your first chance to grab attention, so it should be clear and engaging. Start with a strong hook that outlines your article's main idea and why it's relevant. Include a brief summary of what your article will cover and how it aligns with the magazine’s content. Don’t forget to highlight your qualifications and why you’re the best person to write this piece. A well-crafted pitch can make all the difference in whether your article gets noticed. 4. Highlight your expertise Establishing credibility is vital when trying to get published. Make sure to showcase your expertise on the topic at hand. Include any relevant credentials, experiences, or previous publications that lend weight to your authority. If you have data, case studies, or personal anecdotes to back up your points, include those as well. Editors want to know that they’re featuring a knowledgeable source, so providing evidence of your expertise is essential. For example, instead of simply saying, “I want to write about sustainable fashion,” frame it as, “As the founder of a sustainable clothing brand that has won several industry awards, I want to share actionable steps for building eco-friendly wardrobes.” Backing your claims with specific achievements adds weight to your submission and builds trust with editors. 5. Keep it concise and focused Your article should be well-structured, concise, and to the point. Avoid jargon and unnecessary details that could dilute your message. Instead, focus on delivering impactful content that engages readers from the beginning to the end. A clear, focused piece that respects the magazine's word limit is more likely to be accepted.

Be open to feedback If you’re fortunate enough to receive feedback from an editor, be receptive to it. Constructive criticism is an opportunity to improve your article and make it more suitable for the publication. Whether it’s a request for changes or additional information, showing your willingness to adapt demonstrates professionalism and a commitment to quality. Editors appreciate contributors who are flexible and eager to collaborate. For example, if an editor suggests shortening a case study or tweaking the tone, embrace the opportunity to refine your work. Being flexible and receptive to feedback demonstrates professionalism and increases the likelihood of being published again in the future. 7. Network with editors and writers Building relationships within the industry can significantly enhance your chances of getting published. Attend writing workshops, industry conferences, or networking events where you can meet editors and fellow writers. Engaging with them on social media platforms like LinkedIn or Twitter can also help you stay on their radar. Establishing genuine connections allows you to better understand their needs and preferences, increasing your chances of successful submissions. 8. Promote your published work Once your article is published, don’t just sit back and relax. Take an active role in promoting your work through your social media channels, website, and professional networks. Share the article and engage with your audience by discussing its key points or insights. This not only enhances your visibility but also shows editors that you can drive engagement and interest. A strong promotion strategy makes you a more attractive contributor for future publications. 9. Study past editions Immerse yourself in the magazine’s back issues to understand its recurring themes, tone, and style. This research helps you craft content that feels tailored to their audience. For example, a business magazine might prioritize actionable tips and expert interviews, while a lifestyle magazine may favor personal narratives and trend analysis. Taking the time to study past editions also shows editors you’ve done your homework, increasing your credibility as a contributor. 10. Address gaps in their content Review the magazine’s recent issues and identify topics they haven’t explored or areas where you can offer a fresh perspective. For example, if a travel magazine hasn’t covered lesser-known destinations in Europe, pitch an article on hidden gems in the Balkans. Editors value contributors who can identify and address content gaps, as it enhances the publication’s breadth and relevance. Turn publicity into profit 85% of people will research you online before deciding to work with you, become an Executive Contributor with Brainz Magazine and grow your brand. Find out more 11. Time your submission wisely Editorial calendars often revolve around seasonal themes, holidays, or trending topics. Research when magazines publish specific types of content and align your pitch accordingly. For example, pitch wellness-related content in advance of New Year’s resolutions or gift guides well before the holiday season. Being mindful of timing shows editors you understand their planning process, increasing the likelihood of your pitch being accepted. 12. Build a portfolio If you’re new to writing, start by contributing to blogs, smaller publications, or local outlets. This allows you to refine your skills, build credibility, and gather writing samples to include in future pitches. Over time, your portfolio will demonstrate your versatility and reliability to larger publications. 13. Include a Call-to-Action Articles that provide actionable advice resonate more with readers. Whether you’re encouraging them to adopt a habit, visit a resource, or consider a new perspective, a clear call-to-action (CTA) makes your article more engaging and impactful. Editors appreciate content that inspires readers to take action. 14. Follow up thoughtfully Don’t be discouraged if you don’t hear back immediately. Editors are often inundated with pitches, so a polite follow-up a week or two later can help your submission stand out. Reiterate your enthusiasm and willingness to adjust your article if needed. 15. Stay persistent and patient Rejection is a normal part of the process, but it doesn’t mean your idea lacks merit. Use each rejection as an opportunity to refine your pitch, explore other outlets, or seek feedback. Persistence pays off, and over time, your skills and network will grow, leading to more publishing opportunities.
