MediaSource

Within a couple weeks time, we celebrated our 28th anniversary in business and made the Columbus Business First 2026 Largest Central Ohio Women-Owned Businesses List 🎂

Our agency was founded in 1998 by former television journalist Lisa Arledge Powell, with a simple belief: important healthcare stories deserve to be seen – via video – and heard. Long before video became essential to modern communications, it was central to ours.

After years inside TV newsrooms, Lisa saw firsthand that even the most powerful healthcare stories could go unheard because organizations didn’t know how to visually create them and distribute them to earn attention. She built MediaSource to change that: an agency that knows how to discover the stories, visually bring them to life and make them impossible to overlook.

28 years later, we pair our storytelling DNA with data and emerging technology to help healthcare brands break through everywhere people and machines discover, trust and share information.

We couldn't do it without our incredible team, clients and partners. Thank you for an amazing 28 years 💜

MediaSource is certified as a Women's Business Enterprise (WBE) by the Women's Business Enterprise National Council - WBENC. Read more about the Columbus Business First Largest Central Ohio Women-Owned Businesses List here: https://bit.ly/4yfV6TB

Championing women in healthcare? We're there 👋

Proud to have sponsored the American College of Healthcare Executives of Greater Ohio Women in Healthcare Leadership Breakfast where Dr. Kimryn Rathmell, CEO of The OSUCCC-James Cancer Hospital and Solove Research Institute, shared her story - from the curiosity that first drew her to medicine to the conviction that fuels her leadership today.

A genuine reminder that the best leadership often begins with staying curious.

Congratulations to Dr. Rathmell and the entire team at The James.

We're honored to be supporting this great event hosted by the American College of Healthcare Executives of Greater Ohio 💜

For 28 years, we've had the opportunity to ​work with incredible women in healthcare leadership at The Ohio State University Wexner Medical Center, The OSUCCC-James Cancer Hospital and Solove Research Institute, Nationwide Children's and other health systems around the country. ​

We'd love to see you on September 11!​ Tickets are still available: https://ohioache.org/event/women-in-healthcare-leadership-breakfast/

Back-to-school can come with big changes, from schedules to more challenging subjects, friendship dynamics and more. Not to mention health topics that parents are concerned about heading into the school year.​

We worked with Nationwide Children's and its pediatric mental health initiative, The Kids Mental Health Foundation on an integrated PR campaign ​to equip families with expert-backed tips and tools to prepare them for the challenges a new school year can bring.​

Some of our key moves that achieved award-winning campaign goals? 🏆 Purpose-driven storytelling, video, media relations and advanced market intelligence.

Thank you PR Daily for your continued recognition of this important campaign. Fingers crossed for a win in December!
