Hi all!
Welcome back my weekly newsletter of media opportunities.
The last week of the month is always a transition time for me. I’m wrapping up the last deadlines, invoicing, and pitching for the month ahead. This means this week, I don’t have any current open opportunities.
However, I’m always taking cold pitches, so feel free to send them my way via email: pitch@lindsaytigar.com.
What I’m looking for:
Trends as they relate to my beats.
Holidays/seasonal pitches as they relate to my beats.
Experts that can discuss topics as they relate to my beats.
Products that are seasonal/timely.
And to make it easy for you, here are my current beats:
Wellness, psychology, relationships/romance, fitness, health and nutrition topics for Real Simple, Sunday Riley, Eat This, Not That, and others.
Pet topics for Daily Paws.
Current career trends/topics as they relate to work/life for Fast Company.
Seasonal product round-ups guided by expert advice for CNN Underscored.
Parenting, pregnancy, and beauty topics/products for USA Today Reviewed.
Parenting and pregnancy topics/products for What To Expect.
Seasonal travel advice and content for Travel + Leisure.
Financial and female entrepreneur topics for HerMoney.
Wedding trends, relationship/romance advice and planning for Wedding Wire and The Knot.
Thank you, as always, for being so proactive and helping me meet my deadlines.
Other housekeeping notes below.
I’ll be back next week with lots of other opportunities for October deliverables.
Thanks!
Lindsay
Samples: Gift Guide Season is Here!
If you’d like to send me samples of your client’s products, please check with me first. Most of the time, I’m open to it, but I don’t want to agree to a product I would never cover. (That’s just unethical!)
Press Trip Invites
At this time, I’m not comfortable taking group press trips as the COVID-19 Delta variant continues to spur new cases. I’m fully-vaccianted, and I’m open to individual stays within the United States. As always, I can never guarantee coverage as a freelancer since I do not have say over the final edit of my stories.
I Moved… and I’m Pregnant!
Recently, my husband and I relocated to my hometown of Asheville, NC as we grow our family. I’m thrilled to share I’m expecting my first baby, due in March :)
If you represent a parenting/pregnancy brand, I’d love to connect. As you might have guessed from my story topics, I’m beginning to pitch tons of parenting content as we anticipate our little one’s arrival.

Recent Work
Below are links to my byline page for my current outlets. By clicking on these links, you can see the most recently published work. If you don’t see it here, it likely isn’t published. Unfortunately, freelancers never know when stories go live but when it does, it’ll be here. Generally speaking, please allow six weeks before inquiring about publication.
For a pretty good collection of recent bylines, check out my Muckrack page.
