48 – How This Pharmacist is Helping Other Pharmacists Get Paid to Write Health Content

On today’s episode, I invited Dr. Megan Freeland back to give us updates on what she’s been up to, and as usual, my girl did not disappoint!

If you’ve been following along with the podcast, then you already know from Episode 15, that Megan’s ultimate career goal was to become a public health pharmacist working for the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention. If not, listen to her story here!

She accomplished that goal on multiple occasions — supporting divisions related to medication safety, health communications, and emergency preparedness and response — but realized she was missing the opportunity to apply a creative flair to her writing career.

So what did she do next?!

Dr. Freeland set out on her own to build a health content marketing company. Through StockRose Creative, LLC, she supports innovative health organizations, helping them use the power of words to reach their target customers and clients and turn them into raving fans. She uses a strategic approach to develop culturally-relevant content for digital health companies and health information websites.

At the same time, Megan runs the Health Professionals to Health Writers program, an accelerator program to help pharmacists and other health care providers learn how to replace a portion of their income through freelance health content writing.

Earlier this year, Megan also began lending her talents to an in-house communications team for the nation’s leading provider of sexual and reproductive health care and education.

When she’s not writing, reading about writing, or teaching others how to write, she’s binging podcasts (like this one!) and new music, scoping out the latest Peloton apparel drops, and laughing hysterically with — or at — her two young children and husband!
