ST. PETERSBURG, FL – September 17, 2026 – Influential Women has now published more than 10,000 profiles, interviews, and magazine features focused on women who are leading in their fields. The growing body of work spans business, technology, healthcare, education, nonprofit leadership, and many other sectors.
The platform produces a print and digital magazine registered with the Library of Congress, a regular podcast series, and digital editorial content. Its purpose is practical. The goal is to create professional quality stories that women can share, cite, and use as part of their professional narrative.
“Visibility still doesn’t come easily for a lot of women who have already put in the work,” said Jodie O’Brien, Host and Editor at Influential Women. “We’re trying to do something concrete about that. We produce real editorial pieces. The women involved get the chance to review and approve their stories before they go out. And we try to be straightforward about how the process works, including the fact that some participation is free and some involves optional paid support for production and distribution.”
Influential Women offers two clear paths. Some women are featured on a complimentary basis. Others choose optional paid programs when they want additional support for production, design, photography, distribution, or broader visibility around their feature. The company keeps this distinction transparent so no one is left unsure about what is required and what is optional.
“We believe strong work deserves to be seen,” O’Brien said. “That’s why we maintain complimentary opportunities. At the same time, producing high quality magazine features, thoughtful interviews, and professional distribution has real costs. The optional paid programs exist to cover those costs for women who want that higher level of support. We try to be very clear about both options so people can decide what makes sense for them.”
The company is based in St. Petersburg, Florida. It maintains detailed public pages that explain its selection criteria, the difference between free recognition opportunities and optional paid production packages, and how to verify that any outreach is genuine. Those resources are collected at influentialwomen.com/info and are updated as the platform evolves.
Influential Women has been referenced by national media outlets and continues to grow both its magazine and podcast. The team views the milestone of more than 10,000 published features as evidence that consistent editorial work, paired with clearer public information, is the most effective way to build credibility over time.
The platform was created to address a real gap. Many accomplished women still struggle to get the kind of professional visibility that helps advance careers and open doors. Traditional media coverage is limited, and purely promotional recognition programs often leave people feeling uncertain about what they are getting. By focusing on editorial quality and transparency, Influential Women aims to offer a practical alternative.
“Every feature we publish is about the woman’s work, her path, and what she has built,” O’Brien added. “That focus has stayed the same from the beginning. Reaching 10,000 features shows that the approach resonates, and it pushes us to keep improving how clearly we explain the process to everyone who comes across us.”
