There’s a photo of me as a toddler “reading” a magazine and I’ve loved them ever since. I would love a physical version of your content!

Great ideas. I feel my heart rise. I write a Substack called "Soulshine Stories" about the intersection between stories and self-awareness. https://jennywells.substack.com/. I love visuals and want to implement IRL events in 2026. But since I write a lot about popular culture, most of my visuals so far are trailers or stills from the stories. If you want to provide a color palette, have at it! I would treasure your work.

I adore your content!

I am not interested in a magazine, but I'd love branding ideas for a therapy practice! I'd love for it to feel gender neutral, nature-y, easy. I see primarily new moms and dads, couples walking through infertility, or pregnancy loss. I want it to feel breathable since life can be so overwhelming, but I can only think of light blues for some reason which are too beachy or hospital sterile.

I’ve got to say, when I stumbled onto Feeling and all your publications it was like “that’s my ultimate goal”. Being able to have a digital space while extending it into the wild with a mailing club. That’s just the perfect balance. But in a way I don’t really know where to start? I wanna talk about so much stuff (recipes and address I discovered, trips when I do some, and more personal reflections of a 26years old in the middle of a professional crisis..) so, if you have any advise, tips, I’d love to hear about it!

I used to have a sticker shop, and I kinda miss it also…

I don’t know, loads of random reflexion but you truely are inspiring!

Ever since I discovered Feeling!, I've felt so inspired and have thought extensively about creating my own regular newsletter for my students; I'm an English language teacher. I love the feeling, colours, the visuals and the tone!!!

I started sending a weekly email to one of my groups in particular after our regular Friday night intensive class with a round-up of our "Homework Menu" with options for if they felt like/had time for "main meal" tasks or just "snacks" or something more light and fun like "desserts". I've thought a lot about making it into something bigger to inspire more learner engagement and autonomy for studying and learning outside of the classroom but haven't known how to start. I did try to ask them to submit their own ideas for things they have done outside of the class e.g. films/series they've enjoyed watching in English (not dubbed, obviously!) etc but it never took off in the way I had hoped.

So, a very welcome starting point 🤞 thank you!

I adore the homework menu idea. It sounds like it would make homework feel less like a chore and more like exploring an exciting subject!

Feeling! Mag very soon made its way through my heart. Everything I wanted is in your thoughts it’s so magic to me.

My Substack is a beach-like publication, emulating the wildness of an Island. I’m talking everything spirituality, wellness, fashion. #SALT is for sure a brand, and the limits really help my creativity flow.

Anyway! Coming back to your wonderful post, now. Thank you so much 🫶

Adore your magazine!! My goal this year is to really dive into my branding and offer more for my readers! Would love to hear your thoughts on color palettes! My Substack is called Messy Mercies… it’s a space for moms who don’t want perfect motherhood but grace for the tough moments… I also want to start sharing things connected to this: recipes, rhythms, favorites lists! Would love any thoughts you have!! Thanks for sharing this behind the scenes look!

I love this!!! I’m also starting on Substack with a developing dream of a magazine as end goal. I’d love to see what colors you come up with for me: All The Happy is about finding joy and creativity no matter the circumstances. So main focuses are joy, being creative/creativity, faith, and a focus on chronic illness (that’s the “no matter the circumstances” part) as that’s my life.

Looking forward to see what colors that brings to mind for you!
