Ways to Get Involved
At The Heretic, we want to amplify the voices of the heretics of the world. It is a place for the activists of the world no matter their age, ethnicity, nationality, or industry.
​
We do not aim to instruct people, but offer an alternative lens through which to question and examine systems and habits that may not be serving us anymore. Some of those questions may be bold and uncomfortable, but are necessary to confront.
​
We also aim to provide a grounded perspective for our readers and move away from pop psychology and mainstream buzzwords for the sake of collecting audience. We noticed the strong hunger for clarity in grounded and sound resources and voices, but have also seen how flooded the bubble of social media and networks are with unrealistic, unattainable, and vapid advice in response to that hunger to make sense of changing landscape.
​
We do not have all the answers, and we will not settle for selling snake oil in response to difference. Through this publications we want to amplify the voices of the heretics of the world, those that want to productively question, sit with the discomfort and confusion, and explore what they notice. We want to pose provocative questions, but not necessarily provide answers, for we believe that the quest is almost more important than the destination. And there the answers reveal themselves.
If you resonate with this, and work as a coach, psychologist, social development practitioner, social activism, or find yourself anywhere in between and would like to get involved, contact us and we can have a chat.

You are welcome to independently submit your pieces anytime before the set dates, however we think you may benefit from engaging our editors before doing so. We believe in the power of human conversations and we think we may all benefit from hearing each other's thoughts and perspectives before submission.
