We're Starting a Newsletter (And It Won't Be Garbage)

Most company newsletters are filler. Recycled blog posts, product announcements dressed up as insights, and a lot of "exciting updates" that aren't exciting to anyone except the marketing team.
We're not going to do that.
What You'll Actually Get
We're launching The ILTY Newsletter — a periodic email with things that are genuinely worth reading:
- Mental health insights that aren't obvious. Not "exercise helps depression" (you know that). More like what the research actually says about specific techniques, why certain approaches backfire, and what nobody tells you about managing your mental health.
- Product updates that matter. New companions, features, and changes. No filler. If we didn't ship anything interesting, we won't pretend we did.
- Practical advice you can use today. Short, actionable, based on evidence. The kind of thing you read and think "I'm going to try that" instead of "yeah, I already knew that."
What You Won't Get
- Weekly emails (we send when we have something worth saying)
- Clickbait subject lines
- Toxic positivity or "good vibes only" nonsense
- Your email sold to anyone, ever
Why a Newsletter
We've been publishing blog posts for weeks now — over 50 articles on everything from anxiety management to how AI therapy apps actually work. But not everyone checks a blog regularly. A newsletter lets us bring the best stuff directly to you.
It's also a way to share things that don't fit in a blog post. Quick observations, links we found useful, behind-the-scenes context on what we're building and why.
Subscribe
It takes five seconds. One field, one button, no hoops.

The Real Answer to 'How Are You?' (And Why 'Fine' Stopped Working)
Most of us answer 'fine' or 'good, you?' on autopilot. Then we walk away from the conversation feeling lonelier than before. Here's why the polite answer keeps failing us, what an honest answer actually sounds like, and how to know which version belongs in which moment.
How to Change Your Mindset: What Actually Works (and What's Just Self-Help Theater)
'Just think positive' isn't mindset change — it's suppression. Real mindset change involves specific cognitive mechanisms, and knowing them is the difference between rehearsing affirmations and actually shifting how you see the world.

"Think positive, be positive" is a meme, a mug, and a mantra — but the research on positive thinking is more nuanced than the platitude suggests. What actually works, what backfires, and how to tell the difference.
