Share the goods.

A newsletter format with the title "Must Subscribe PR Newsletters"

We get it, you are super busy. Being in PR means your days are booked. You have media lists, interviews, pitches, press releases, client calls, and everything in between. Last on your to-do list is learning and reading up on what can make you better. Although it might be last on your list, professional development should always be a priority. Here are some kick-ass PR newsletters to get you started. 

Michael Smart PR

This guide gives you all the deets on media relations do’s and dont’s. Michael Smart is a public relations coach with years of experience. Michael Smarts’s PR newsletter gives you many different resources. When you subscribe you receive a guide to winning subject lines formulas for pitches. With this comes a ton of PR tips. Michael Smart PR newsletter also offers a monthly series “Good Lessons from bad PR Pitches”.  

The Sword and the Script Monthly Newsletter 

The Atlanta based PR agency goes above and beyond other regular PR newsletters. The Sword and the Script monthly newsletter breaks down the top PR, marketing, and social media news so you don’t have to go through the boring content. Let’s be real, no one has time for that so they just email all of the top content directly to you.  Even better, you only get one email a week with links to the best articles and blogs. Although the Sword and the Script Monthly newsletter has a larger focus on technology, it is still a great topic to read up on since technology rules the world these days. 

The Daily Skimm 

Daily Skimm is a fast way to get updated on all the things, from national headlines, politics to industry specific news. It provides small blurbs on all the news of the day to keep you up to date. The Daily Skimm skips all the unnecessary story headlines and gets to the real juicy content. Filling you in on hot topics and pressing news (with a bit of sass, which you know we love) keeps you intrigued and informed. 

Meltwater

Meltwater newsletter provides tips on communication and business strategies. Their newsletter  helps break down brand management, social media news, and gives insights on the top tier influencers. Meltwater is a great place to start if you want to know more about the PR world. 

These are just a few of the ones to read on a regular basis. Check out other recommendations by Muck Rack.

Something on Your Mind?

We love Dr. Karen May’s mission.

What if we taught our daughters AND our sons about women’s health, hormones, and pregnancy? Not as a whispered “talk” or a one-time awkward conversation. Just normal dinner-table stuff.

The girls deserve to know what’s coming (perimenopause shouldn’t be a surprise party nobody wanted). And the boys? They’ll be partners, dads, coworkers, and bosses to women going through all of it.

Thank you, Dr. May, for sharing your best practices to keep the women’s health conversation going at our Uncomfortable Conversations | The Pause event.
Showing up to an interview with an iced coffee? Not the move… unless it’s for @bodespeaks

… and we wouldn’t have it any other way.

Meet Joey, one of @bodespeaks’ nine rescues and 8THIRTYFOUR’s self-appointed office manager. She’ll happily accept head pats and belly rubs, but make no mistake: she’s always watching.
The Women’s Owners Network (WON) is built for smaller businesses that are ready for the next level and need the right support to get there, whatever that looks like.

The six-month program combines the practical side of business with the emotional side. Participants work on leadership, finance, operations, and access to capital. They also get structured support for isolation, emotional volatility, and decision fatigue that come with owning a business.

WON is designed by entrepreneurs who have been there. They know that lasting business growth depends on personal growth and the resilience it takes to keep going.

This program gives women business owners thoughtful, well-rounded support to reach their next chapter, however they define it.

Who is WON built for?
Women founders who are in the thick of it and are:

- Past the idea stage: actively generating revenue and serving customers
- Committed to growth: ready to invest six months in the work, starting in November
