SHOW NOTES

In this episode, we feature Jocelyn Wood, a Pediatric Speech-Language Pathologist, media contributor, and owner of Everyday Language Co, to discuss media pitching as an intentional, sustainable visibility system rather than a one-time hustle.

Jocelyn defines media pitching as approaching outlets such as podcasts, local media, magazines, or blogs with ideas that serve their audiences while representing your services.

She shares how pitching expands reach beyond social media, and how a repeatable system can make pitching quick, lead to ongoing editor relationships, and even create paid opportunities.

Jocelyn outlines two approaches—responding to editorial requests and cold pitching—and recommends building a spreadsheet of target outlets, brainstorming timely and evergreen topics, and using short, audience-focused pitches.

She also notes common mistakes, explains SEO and backlink benefits, shares outcomes from features, and describes her Pitch Rx program and where to connect with her.
