What’s your story?

We’re seeking inspiring women in their 40s and 50s for our editorial interview program

Are you building a brand or business, carving out a niche, or changing the world in some shape or form? We want to tell your story — and our community wants to read it.

The opportunity

Build your personal brand with a long-form editorial interview (~1,000-1,600 words). We’ll publish your interview on jumbleandflow.com and The Midst Substack. We specialize in telling stories about women innovating in the arts, tech, publishing, women’s health, and entrepreneurship.

How it works

One of our writer-editors will conduct an interview with you (via Zoom) and also send questions for you to answer in a Google Doc or via email. The writer-editor will write an introduction, copy-edit the Q&A conversation, select feature quotes, and share the piece with you for review before we publish. Our editorial directors, Amy Cuevas Schroeder and Laurie White, will do a final edit and consult on SEO keyword strategy.

From there, we’ll publish on jumbleandflow.com (soon to become the-midst.com) as well as The Midst Substack. We’ll promote your profile in our newsletter and our social media.

Thanks to your votes, we now have an official logo for The Midst moving forward. We conducted several Substack polls and opened up voting on our socials as well. Soon we’ll use the above logo consistently everywhere.

To recap, here were the five original choices:
