Career Pivots and Pharma Copywriting with Alex Howson and Holly Hagan

Alex Howson and Holly Hagan preview their summit sessions on two distinct entry points into medical writing. Alex talks about pivoting into continuing medical education from academia, research, or clinical practice, and which existing skills actually transfer into the CME niche. Holly pulls back the curtain on medical copywriting in pharma, explaining the regulatory realities that shape the work and why it is closer to a creative, compliance-driven craft than the consumer advertising people assume it resembles.

Community as Career Infrastructure with Abigale Miller

Abigale Miller joins Nuria and Morgan to talk about why community is essential for freelance medical writers, especially as AI reshapes hiring, marketing, and the day-to-day of the work. She shares what she has learned from running AMWA's freelancer jam session and her own community, the Anthill, including why even twenty-year veterans still bring questions and doubts to their peers, and why intentional connection matters more, not less, as more learning moves online.

Inside the Early Career Medical Writers Summit

Nuria and Morgan introduce the Early Career Medical Writers Summit, running June 8 to 12 as an audio-first community experience on Slack with seven speakers, daily 20-minute sessions, and live Q&As. They walk through who the summit is for, including brand new writers, those a few years in, and folks considering a move from employed roles into freelance, and preview their own sessions: Nuria on how to talk to clients (and employers) about using AI, and Morgan on how to actually use LinkedIn once your profile is built without letting it take over your life.

79% of Voters Think the Government Has No Plan to Protect Their Jobs from AI

A Blue Rose Research report is tracking AI as a political issue, and the numbers are striking. AI is rising in voter concern faster than any other issue they track, including climate change, childcare, and abortion. At the same time, 61% of Americans say life has gotten less affordable, and only 25% feel confident in their financial future. Nuria and Morgan talk through what happens when those two anxieties collide, whether companies blaming layoffs on AI are always telling the full story, and what the GPS-and-taxi-drivers analogy reveals about which jobs are actually at risk. They also get into UBI, taxing AI companies, why Bernie Sanders is not the only politician with a position on this, and what it looks like to adapt your career around what AI is automating versus what it's leaving on the table.

Quit GPT: The Ethics of Which AI Gets Your Money

Morgan quit ChatGPT earlier this year and moved her work to Claude, and this episode explains why. The Quit GPT movement picked up momentum in early 2025 after OpenAI's president Greg Brockman donated $25 million to a Trump super PAC and launched a $125 million lobbying initiative targeting any state that tries to regulate AI. Then came reports that ChatGPT tools were being used by ICE, and the news that when the Pentagon pushed AI companies to remove limits on surveillance and autonomous weapons decisions, Anthropic said no and OpenAI said yes. Nuria and Morgan unpack what Anthropic's red lines actually were, what Sam Altman has said since, and the broader question of who should regulate AI if governments are too entangled with the billionaires building it.
