Interview / panel pitch
Hi [name],

I noticed [publication/event] covers [relevant theme: mental health, female founders, social impact, tech for good] regularly. I'd love to contribute from the field.

I'm Danique Motzheim, founder of BYOU. Instead of just raising awareness about mental health, we're building a new access system: a platform that brings together therapy, coaching, mindfulness, nutrition and beauty, plus a foundation reaching young people and communities who cannot yet afford care.

Three possible angles for an article or panel:
1. "Mental health needs a system, not another campaign."
2. "Why the future of wellbeing will be community-driven."
3. "The female founder building both a company and a foundation around wellbeing."

I'm available for interviews, panels and commentary. My press page is ready: https://daniquemotzheim.com/press
