Our Sponsorship Philosophy
We view sponsorships not just as transaction, but as trusted partnerships. Our commitment to our audience means we only work with brands that align with our values, our standards, and our actual experience.
What We Stand By
1. Authenticity First - We only promote products or services that we genuinely use, trust, and believe will bring value to our community. Every sponsor is vetted, and every partnership is earned.
2. Value-Driven Partnerships - Our sponsors must serve our audience. If a brand or offering doesn’t meet the bar of strategic relevance, utility, or integrity, we simply don’t engage.
Why We May End a Sponsorship
We reserve the right to discontinue a sponsorship if:
- The brand no longer wishes to continue the partnership
- We discover or switch to a superior product or solution
- New information causes us to change our stance or trust in the brand
- The brand is acquired or merges with an entity we do not support
- The brand fails to uphold the values we share with our audience
Transparency and Content Updates
When a sponsorship ends:
- We remove the sponsor’s ads from our website catalog
- We remove sponsor links from all our materials
- Due to platform limitations, previously recorded sponsor segments on social accounts may remain in the content but will no longer be linked or promoted
Note: These changes may take time to reflect across all platforms. For the most current list of active sponsors, please refer to this page regularly.
