Comment PLAN if you’re already thinking "we should probably do something for National Forensic Science Week... I just don't know what yet...”

We made a lil’ something for you!⁠
⁠
This entirely FREE 5-Day NFSW Planning Challenge is designed to help forensic professionals build a simple, realistic plan for National Forensic Science Week...without the overwhelm or last-minute scramble.⁠
⁠
🔍 Here’s what we’ll do together:⁠

• DAY 1: Choose your focus for National Forensic Science Week

• DAY 2: Get key people involved early (so your ideas have support when you need it)

• DAY 3: Plan how you'll recognize your team (awards, spotlights, appreciation ideas, and more)

• DAY 4: Choose a realistic celebration activity (something that fits your staffing, budget, and operational needs)

• DAY 5: Build your week-at-a-glance plan (so everything is organized and ready to go)

By the end, you'll have a practical plan you can actually use.

👉 Comment PLAN below and we'll send it your way. 💌

As Mental Health Awareness Month starts wrapping up, we want your feedback.

This month we covered:

✔️ trauma exposure
✔️ cumulative stress
✔️ burnout culture
✔️ work/life balance
✔️ unhealthy coping mechanisms
✔️ career transitions
✔️ retirement and identity loss

But we know there’s still more to talk about!

So tell us:

What topics do you want us to dive deeper into?

What do you wish more people talked about in this field?

Because one thing this month reinforced for us is that mental health conversations in forensics cannot stop at surface-level awareness.

We want to keep creating content that actually reflects the reality of this profession!!

This Mental Health Awareness Month series has already reached so many forensic professionals!!

We love seeing how many people connected with these conversations, and it's been such a great reminder of us exactly why we started Forensics Unfiltered in the first place.

We wanted a space where forensic professionals could talk honestly about the realities of this job that people usually keep quiet.

If this series resonated with you, there are two HUGE ways you can support the podcast and help us continue this mission:

1.) ⭐ Leave a 5-star review for Forensics Unfiltered
Tell us what you’ve enjoyed, what’s helped you, or what conversations stood out.

2.) 📲 Share the episodes
Send them to another forensic professional. Post them to your stories. Start conversations inside your own circles.

Because the more people willing to talk about mental health in this field… the harder it becomes to keep pretending these struggles are isolated.

We appreciate every listen, every share, every comment, and every conversation more than you know 💕

And of course... we’re just getting started.

Okay… we’re finally sharing this 👀 We’re excited

Okay… we’re finally sharing this 👀

We’re excited to officially announce this year’s virtual summit ::drum roll::

Mental Health in Forensics Summit!!

Let's keep these conversations going beyond the podcast. We want to create space for real, practical discussions about what it actually looks like to support mental health in forensic science at both the individual and organizational level.

As always, the summit will be:

✔ Completely free to attend
✔ Held during National Forensic Science Week
✔ Designed specifically for forensic professionals

And if you've been around here for a while, you already know we don't do surface-level conversations. So expect us to dig into the real stuff people tend to keep as inside thoughts.

👉 Comment WELLNESS if you want early access and updates as soon as registration opens for your free ticket!
