About Us
We believe that wellness is not a product to be bought or a protocol to be followed. It's a relationship—with your body, your surroundings, your choices, and the questions you're willing to sit with.
Pursuit of Living Well was created as a more thoughtful kind of lifestyle and wellness platform—one that honors growth, but not in a rushed or performative way. One that values conscious choices, but without turning everyday life into a constant self-optimization project. One that makes room for curiosity, reflection, and practicality in equal measure.
We wanted to create something that feels both intelligent and human. A place where personal growth is discussed with sincerity, where wellness feels expansive rather than prescriptive, and where conscious living is treated not as an aesthetic, but as a meaningful way of moving through the world.
This site is rooted in the belief that living well is not about arriving at some polished final version of yourself. It is about paying attention. It is about choosing with care. It is about building a life that reflects what matters to you—thoughtfully, steadily, and with enough self-awareness to let it evolve.
Slower. Deeper. More yours.
To make the pursuit of living well feel accessible, honest, and genuinely worth your time.
What We Cover
Pursuit of Living Well is built around three connected areas of life that shape how we feel, how we grow, and how we move through the world.
Personal Growth
We explore growth as an ongoing, deeply personal process — one shaped by self-awareness, emotional honesty, mindset, habits, relationships, and the quiet work of becoming more fully yourself. Our content in this space is designed to support readers who want to reflect more clearly, develop with intention, and make thoughtful changes that feel sustainable.
Conscious Living
Conscious living is about moving through life with greater awareness of your choices, values, attention, and environment. Here, we cover topics that help readers live more deliberately — from creating more supportive routines and spaces to exploring boundaries, digital balance, values-based decision-making, and a more meaningful relationship with time, consumption, and daily life.
Holistic Wellness
Wellness is never just one thing. It is physical, emotional, mental, social, and often spiritual too. Our approach to holistic wellness is broad, grounded, and human. We explore rituals, well-being practices, rest, nourishment, emotional resilience, energy, and care in a way that feels realistic, expansive, and supportive rather than rigid.
Editorial Values
Grounded over performative
We believe growth and wellness should feel rooted in real life. We value practical depth over polished perfection, and substance over presentation.
Insight with usefulness
A beautiful idea matters more when it can be lived. We aim to pair reflection with practical application so readers leave with something they can truly carry into daily life.
Respect for the reader
We write with warmth, clarity, and trust in our readers’ intelligence. We do not talk down, overstate, or oversimplify. Thoughtful guidance begins with respect.
Intention in the details
The way we speak, structure ideas, and frame advice matters. We care about nuance, emotional honesty, and the small distinctions that make content feel genuinely valuable.
Who's Writing for You
Simone Ellery
Senior Personal Growth Editor
A former clinical psychologist turned writer, Simone left practice to tell the stories she saw too often go untold. Her work explores identity, transitions, and what it means to change your mind about yourself.
Isabel Wren
Wellness Living Editor
Isabel spent five years as a sustainability researcher before turning to long-form writing. Her essays on intentional living, consumption, and slow travel have earned a devoted readership who describe her work as "the kind of article you re-read twice a year."
David Montgomery
Mindfulness Educator and Conscious Living Editor
David writes about conscious living, mindfulness, attention, and the subtle ways awareness can reshape the quality of daily life. His work explores themes such as presence, digital balance, mental clutter, values-based choices, and the importance of creating space to think, notice, and live more deliberately.
Clara Fontaine
Relationships & Inner Life Editor
Clara's background in philosophy and her decade of practice as a mindfulness facilitator gives her writing an unusual quality—it's both precise and tender. She covers the interior landscape: emotional habits, attention, the stories we tell ourselves, and how to gently revise them.
A Note on Living Well
To us, living well is not a finish line. It is not a fixed identity you either achieve or fail to achieve. It is a way of relating to your life with more awareness, more honesty, and more care.
It is learning what supports you. It is noticing what drains you. It is becoming more discerning about what deserves your energy and attention. It is allowing your life to reflect your values more clearly over time. It is giving yourself room to grow, while still appreciating what is already good and worthy in the present.
There is something very steadying about approaching life this way. Not as a constant project to perfect, but as something to inhabit more thoughtfully.
That is the spirit behind Pursuit of Living Well.
Share Your Season
Every season of life carries its own lessons, rhythms, and quiet turning points. Sometimes growth looks like a fresh start. Sometimes it looks like slowing down, paying closer attention, or returning to what supports you best. However it’s unfolding, living well is something we keep discovering in real time.
If there’s a practice, perspective, or small daily rhythm that’s helping you feel more like yourself, we’d love to hear it.
