Soulibration is a weekly live wellness and lifestyle show streaming LIVE (virtually using Wistia) via BlackDoctor.org’s Facebook (2.7M followers) and YouTube platforms, and I am seeking U.S.-based health, mental health, wellness, and lifestyle experts of color as well as celebrities for upcoming September and October episodes. I'm also seeking guests all the time, so feel free to pitch even if you don't fit into the topics below. Here are some of the specific topics I am currently booking, along with the types of guests we are seeking: Sickle Cell in Adulthood: Pain, Treatment, Self-Advocacy, and Receiving Appropriate Care (Hematologists, sickle cell clinicians and researchers, patient advocates, adults with lived experience) Why Are My Eyes So Dry? Screens, Hormones, Medications, Allergies, and What Actually Helps (Ophthalmologists, optometrists, dry-eye specialists) Candles, Diffusers, and Essential Oils: Could They Be Affecting Your Health? (Allergists, pulmonologists, environmental health experts, toxicologists, evidence-based aromatherapy experts) When Money Is Used as a Weapon: Recognizing Financial Abuse and Rebuilding Independence (Licensed therapists specializing in domestic violence and coercive control, financial therapists or counselors, legal-aid attorneys--I already have a survivor/community advocate for this one) Putting It on Paper: Journaling for Emotional Healing and Self-Discovery (Licensed therapists who incorporate therapeutic journaling, expressive-arts therapists) Tech Neck and Desk Posture: Can Years of Slouching Be Reversed? (Physical therapists, physiatrists, ergonomics experts) Prostate Cancer and Black Men: Screening, Family History, and Self-Advocacy (Urologists, oncologists, patient advocates, survivors) I am also interested in celebrities and public figures with specific stories or angles related to health, wellness, caregiving, relationships, reinvention, or personal growth. Upcoming projects are welcome, but please include the actual Soulibration conversation angle rather than only sending a bio or project announcement. Again, other lifestyle, wellness, and health topics related to emotional and physical health, self-care, and healing are welcome for consideration. Please send complete, topic-specific pitches rather than general lists of clients or subjects. I get a lot of pitches, but I also keep every single one, so you may still hear from me at some point!
