Content guidelines
Original
All content submissions must be 100% original to you. We do not accept syndicated posts or posts that have been previously published elsewhere.

Your content must be fact checked. You must also be able to provide sources. For example, if you claim that 7 out of 10 Americans are in debt, you have to include a source for that research.
Imagery
You can use images in your post if you want, but it isn’t required. If you use images, we recommend checking out sites like Unsplash, Rawpixel, Pexels, and Kaboompics, as most images on these sites are free to use.
Voice + tone
Don’t be afraid to be honest and authentic. Let your personality come through in your writing.
