Example - Hi, I'm Claire and I write Creatively Conscious - https://creativelyconscious.substack.com - I love to interview creatives who are living life on their terms with a whole heart. I'm launching a short podcast series later in the year about generosity of spirit online. It will be 6 episodes and I'd love three of those to have guests. If you read my work and you're keen, you can email support@creativelyconscious.co.uk or reply here.
Hi David, I love the sound of your series. Slow living is something I’ve become very passionate about over the last few years. I’d love to collaborate 🥰
Hi David! If you're open to it I'd love to share how I integrate a seasonal, ayurvedic approach in my personal, and business practices - including how I nourish, create, and rest. I'm at https://holisticyogatherapist.substack.com/ if you'd like to connect.
I write about reconnecting with nature, living off the grid, living in a tiny house.
I have a written interview collab series about different lifestyles and I'm still looking for people to join, so let me know if you'd be keen and you have an alternative lifestyle you'd like to share.
I'm also always keen to collab with others and be approached with any ideas you may have.
Hello! I’m Sophie and I write Finding Simple and Calm.
It’s a space for creative business owners, mothers and neurodivergent folks to come and feel safe and understood. We’re exploring whether slow living is possible for people like us - real people.
The community we’re building is beautiful and I’d love to collaborate with you via a guest post if you have anything to say about motherhood, neurodiversity or being a creative business owner.
Good morning sparklers 👋✨ this is my Substack - https://shelfhelpclub.substack.com - I’m Toni and I’m a London transplant, now living the country life on the east coast of the UK in Norfolk. I run a self-development platform, The Shelf Help Club, which is all about celebrating self-help and working on our inner selves and our mental health in community, and Substack is where we host our community and book club read-alongs. I want to use Substack to grow the Club globally, online AND offline, supporting connections here as a way to create connections and self-help book club meet-ups IRL around the world. Which is my (and Claire’s 😝) challenge for 2025.
Collaboration wise I’ll soon be adding a ‘meet local members’ index to my SS website and so I would love anyone here (who is in to self-help!) to help me populate some of the destinations as we start 🇬🇧 🇺🇸 🇨🇦 🇦🇺 🇮🇳 🇪🇸 .
I’m also looking for Live interview appearances from authors and well-being experts on the platform who can speak on personal development (mental/emotional/spiritual).
See above. I am 83 and offering myself as someone to be interviewed. I am an ex-American, have lived in London since 1968 and, as it happens, wrote a book a very long time ago about self-help groups.
Hey there! I’m Vas, my Substack is all about empowering people to care for themselves. Currently, I’m writing a memoir sharing my story in overcoming chronic illness after being diagnosed with MS at 24. (Now 42 ☺️) I’d love to connect to see if there are any opportunities to collaborate. This year, my goal is build more robust offerings for my subscribers and actually get my communicate to communicate on here 😝. Self help saved me, I love encouraging others to do the same. 🤍
Hi! I’m Cheyanne, an American in Paris. I write A Traveled Table - atraveledtable.substack.com all about life abroad, burnout, and intentional living. I’d love to do more collaborative posts this year and I’m looking to build community with fellow writers in this space. 🫶🏻
Yay - are you looking for folks who also explore these topics, live abroad? Would you like fellow mums? Are you open? How do you see it being of service to your readers? Eg - I did a Big Dreams and quiet ambition series and framed the questions to explore that topic with a range of creatives - https://creativelyconscious.substack.com/s/big-dreams-begin-with-me
Such good questions. I’m super open to collaborating and co-creating with people in the same space.
I’ve also been thinking about a small series called “Course Correction” (still thinking through it) where we share inspiring stories of coming back to ourselves in the big and small ways. The moments we realize something in our lives are off and how we get back to living on our own terms.
In my case it meant quitting my job, leaving my life in Seattle and moving abroad. But for so many of us it also happens in smaller ways. I can look like picking up art as a hobby, releasing the expectation to have kids, deciding to walk in nature every day, etc.
I want someone to have the inspiration and the tools to say, I can live the life that is my own.
Hi Cheyanne! I'm a yoga therapist and I'd love to collaborate on an intentional living focused post. I'm happy to share how yoga can offer a powerful framework for this, if that would be of interest :) I'm at https://holisticyogatherapist.substack.com/
Hi Cheyanne I'm Lucy, a Brit in Singapore. Happy to work on a collaborative written post, I'm sure between us we have some great experiences to share! My newsletter is at https://decidedlyaveragelife.substack.com/
Hi all, I'm Lucy and I write A Decidedly Average Life - https://decidedlyaveragelife.substack.com/ - which is about enjoying life's little moments, living life on your own terms and aiming for a livelier second half of life! I moved from the UK to Singapore in Southeast Asia over a decade ago. I'm a couple of months into my Substack journey and looking forward to building a community here. Happy to collaborate on interview posts on each others newsletters, giving you space to share your stories. Prefer not to use video or podcasts here, I'm all about the written word.
I just had to pop in here to say hi!! I moved from Canada to Thailand 9 years ago, and will be heading to Singapore in late May/June for a trip 😍 We're so close!
I'm Ann Richardson and I write The Granny who Stands on her Head (which I am and I do - and you can see me do on a pinned post on my site). I write about being older (I will be 83 in 3 weeks) but life is too interesting to be limited to that, so I write about anything that takes my fancy, even orgasms. My next post (going out next Wednesday) is entitled Remember Joy? and is intended to remind you that there is still joy to be had in the world. I am open to being interviewed by anyone looking for someone a little different on their site.
Does your head stand practice from from yoga? If yes, I'd love to interview you about your experience with the practice :) I'm a holistic yoga therapist so the potential yoga connection is resonant. I'm at https://holisticyogatherapist.substack.com/ if you'd like to connect.
Yes, indeed. I have been doing Iyengar yoga weekly (and, for a period, more often) for over 30 years. I started at age 50. You can DM me or write to ar@annrichardson.co.uk. It's getting tougher to keep doing all the poses (and some have gone by the wayside), but I am a huge believer in Just Keep Going https://arichardson.substack.com/p/just-keep-going
My nick name is Tate which evolved from Piata- Tate- Tate.
My children tease me as my main focus in life is our family trauma healing and so they call me ‘Trauma Tate’. I will try to deliver my posts on a Tuesday so I’ve named them as ‘Trauma Tate Tuesdays’ 😊.
I write to try to contribute to a shift so:
1. Self care isn’t seen as selfish but an essential part of grief recovery and trauma healing.
2. A parent’s trauma healing feels possible as it’s an important part of trauma informed parenting.
3. Trauma informed parenting is seen as part of whole family grief recovery and trauma healing.
4. This is a biggy and may challenge many readers so I’ll go slowly and gently with this- with an understanding of the nervous system using the Polyvagal theory, I learn that suicide is not a selfish act but a nervous system that is in an overwhelmed, heightened, distressed, disturbed, anxious or shut down state due to the impact of trauma.
Trauma is sometimes difficult to see as it may happen before memory or even be inherited from a previous generation.
I mainly write to offer and seek a sense of feeling seen and for connection as family healing after loss by suicide is a particularly challenging and a lonely path to follow alone.
Hi, I’m Shinjini and I write Studio Diaries - https://shinjinim.substack.com - I would love to exchange guest posts with creatives focused on themes related to creativity, art, and the creative life. If you’re interested, you can DM me on Substack or reply here.
Hi! I'm Mariah. I live in Tennessee and write about creativity, motherhood, and remembering our shared human connection at Heartbeats. My goal is to build a community around genuine connection and collaboration and the understanding that we're all out here human-ing as best we can! 💞
I'm also completing my first novel, The Pattern Shop, and looking for more writer friends who have experience publishing (traditionally or self) for some camaraderie! 📖
One of my personal goals this year is to start taking steps to eventually become freelance with my writing so that I can do what I love whilst earning a living. Don’t get me wrong, I’m grateful for the jobs that have led me to where I am, but I’ve longed to work for myself for what feels like an eternity.
Building my Substack community is a way that I know can lead me to that dream because I truly believe in the power of connection on here. I can connect with others who share the same dreams and passions 🤍 I write about nature, romance, travel and romanticising the small everyday, mundane moments — usually through poetry.
I’d love to collaborate on posts with florists/nature lovers, creatives in the wedding industry, people who love to travel, and I’d also love to write meditation scripts/wellness related posts.
Hi, I'm Niya and I write Be Well to Live Well (https://holisticyogatherapist.substack.com/). I'd love to interview, and collaborate with other wellness professionals and coaches who are approaching menopause in a holistic way. I'd love to learn more about your approach, what brought you to it, and how it's supporting the experience of this powerful transition. My vision is a rich conversation that reduces the isolation that so many people experiencing menopause are also struggling with, while bringing light to practices that western medicine and media don't showcase. If you'd like to connect, please email me at holisticyogatherapist@gmail.com or hit reply :)
Hi to all - I’m Brian and I write Brian Vs. Utah, a newsletter on the Humpday that delves into the many idiosyncrasies that make Utah what it is both in sports and in culture. Anything from 7-foot-2 Frenchman and NBA icon Rudy Gobert to how the LDS Church shapes pro sports is tackled. I also have a popular BVU Show podcast on Spotify and Apple Podcasts that goes out every weekend. I’ve been a working journalist for three decades and was a TV producer before I fell ill with Long Covid in 2020. I’m also an author of SPORTZZ FRUM HOME, a chronicle of my unique time spent working as a sportswriter from home, and spins some of the stories I was fortunate enough to tell. https://www.brianvsutah.com/
Nice to meet you Brian. My husband has long covid - we met someone here on Substack who suggested some beautiful new alternative therapies. Your work sounds really cool. ✨

Hi, I’m David, and I share heartfelt and often nostalgic reflections on living slowly, simply, and in tune with the seasons over on Rediscover · Reconnect · Re-Emerge https://alifemorecreative.substack.com/?utm_source=substack&utm_medium=web&utm_campaign=substack_profile. I’m particularly looking for more participants for my Slow Spotlights series over on the A Life More Creative website, for example, https://www.alifemorecreative.co.uk/journal/slow-spotlight-helen-izzard-interior-design The series ‘interviews' people about how they embrace slow, simple and seasonal living in their lives and/or businesses.
David this sounds magical! I’d love to collaborate 🥰
Super! Can you drop me a DM with your email address, and I can send the prompt sheet over 🌿
