You’ve Got Migraine? We Can Relate.

So do celebrities, authors, doctors, presidents and a billion people worldwide. It’s so common, yet so hidden. We started Migraine World Summit in 2016 to unite a global community of people just like us whose lives had been seriously affected by this evil disease. We’ve both lived with chronic migraine that affected our health, identity, relationships, work and finances. Yet by researching and interviewing over 200 world-leading experts in the field, we’ve found control. Greater freedom. And you can too.

Why is MWS Launching a Substack?

While we release a new Summit each year, we’ve built a library of incredible health and wellness resources to share with people like you. Substack is a place full of curious souls, avid readers, and listeners. It just made sense to launch an extension of our MWS content here, accessible on demand anytime, anywhere. And if you want even more, check out MigraineWorldSummit.com. You choose what works best for you.

Join our growing global community

By joining our Substack, you’ll be one part of a global community of over 100,000 people in 200+ countries who find the answers we all need to get the migraine and headache care we deserve. You’ll meet people who deal with migraine, cluster headaches, new daily persistent headaches, vestibular disorders, and sinus headaches, to name a few. We’ll discuss the comorbidities that often affect us, including sleep disorders, anxiety, depression, and more.

Because migraine and headache disorders are so individualized, we ask that you be kind, respectful, evidence-based, and encouraging in your comments.

What you can expect from us

You’ll get evidence-based content from world-leading experts that we’ve vetted. Their opinions are their own, as are ours, and none of us can provide individualized medical advice in this forum. We can answer (and often do in our interviews, live webinars, and Ask Me Anythings) your questions about research, treatments, living, and working with migraine.

Watch this space and your inbox for posts at least every week. Free subscribers get access to our weekly newsletter, each of which features a single topic based on an interview with a world-leading expert.

Paid subscribers can access:

  • Our full 30-minute audio interviews with world-leading headache specialists and doctors from organizations like Harvard, Stanford, Mayo Clinic, UCLA, and Kings College London.

  • Exclusive downloadable Migraine Guides on various topics, including Migraine Triggers, Nutrition and Dining, and Migraine Supplements

  • Our 7-session Migraine Masterclass Course features videos of 50+ experts with learning objectives, quizzes, and certification.

Annual Paid Subscribers save money and also receive an exclusive newsletter, the MWS Quarterly Research Report — a roundup of the latest and most important research affecting your health and life, in plain English.

  • Access to our Full MWS Talks Migraine Archive anytime and anywhere.

  • Quarterly Ask Me Anything Private Webinars with Paula Dumas and Carl Cincinnato in which you’ll get at least one of your questions answered live and a full transcript of the conversation. These are especially helpful for people who have hit a roadblock, lost hope, need a different treatment option or a solution for a tricky problem that migraine has created.
