Member’s Promo Film a Success!

The screening for the 54-minute promotional film for the docuseries, “The Change Unleasing the Wild Woman,” was a huge success for WIFT/H member, Linda Gibbs.  The event, recently held at The McGovern Theater in The Health Museum Houston, received great reviews from the mostly female audience.

The series advocates for holistic and evidence-based treatment options for women experiencing peri and post menopausal symptoms, emphasizing mental, physical and spiritual wellness.

The Q&A panel discussion post screening was led by Linda Gibbs, producer of the series through her company, Gibbs Media Group and included a nutritionist and two OB/GYN physicians.

Best of luck on this important docuseries, Linda!

TV Legend & WIFT/H Supporter to Retire

After 43 years in the newsroom and on-the-air, Houston’s Melanie Lawson has announced she will retire from ABC13.  The Chronicle’s Joy Sewing broke the news exclusively that Lawson plans to leave her anchor post January 31, 2026.

A profoundly respected journalist, Melanie has been a member of the WIFT/Houston chapter and helped support past events.  Most memorably, she was a moderator of our “Reel Stars of Texas” awards at The Hobby Center which recognized Houston natives, Chandra Wilson and Isaiah Washington of Grey’s Anatomy fame.

We’re thankful for her support of women over the years and especially her integrity and professionalism.  We’re sure many retrospectives will surface until her merited retirement when she signs off in January.
