Do you like reading emails in your free time or on the way to or from work? And what if these emails contain inspiring texts that regularly come to your inbox? More and more organizations, companies, and bloggers introduce newsletters covering all possible topics from career development to self-help and mental health. In the list below, we collected the top eight inspiring newsletters to check out and subscribe to in 2022.

Playing-it-safe

Playing-it-safe newsletter written by psychologist and passionate behaviorist Dr. Z invites you to get free from fears, worries, obsessions, and anxieties. It also encourages you to look into common ways of doing things and consider whether another "risky" method is more efficient. By reading the Playing-it-safe newsletter, you can learn research-based skills and actionable steps to make better decisions, adjust to uncertain situations, make bold moves, and do more of what matters to you.

Kick Ass Letters

Do you want to step out of your comfort zone but are unsure how? Then try to subscribe to the Kick Ass Letters. This newsletter will send you a new challenge every week that you better take on. More than 400 founders, parents, and generally challenge-seekers have already enrolled and got closer to becoming fearless because life's most significant moments happen outside of our comfort zone.

Startup Illustrated 

If you have a startup, work for one, or want to set up your own, the Startup Illustrated newsletter is a must for you. The newsletter explains startup concepts simply, shares advice, and gets delivered bi-weekly to your inbox. Startup Illustrated helps to better understand the startup journey by sharing simple process illustrations, visual thread walls, or question cards for other co-founders.

Down the Rabbit Hole 

Do you want to change your focus and read something surprising? Then check out the newsletter called Down the Rabbit Hole. Every Wednesday, you will read five and more mind-blowing ideas, tools, or quotes. You can also check the website for many interesting articles focused on psychology, mindfulness, or psychedelics.

Glowreel

Are you looking to read inspiring stories of women to get you in the mood? Then the newsletter created by the platform Glowreel might be the one you are searching for. Glowreel shares the stories of black, indigenous, and other women of color. The platform aims to celebrate the wins, build a community of amazing people, and encourage anyone who identifies as a woman of color to blaze their trail.

Read a Girl

If you like reading books written by female authors, the Read a Girl newsletter might be what you were missing out on before. The newsletters' goal is to promote the work of women writers. Once subscribed, you will get a book recommendation written by a woman every month. Read a Girl brings to light the work of excellent writers who, sometimes, get overshadowed by their gender.

Mentoring

Your best people are thinking about leaving. Mentoring is how you change that.

Your best people are not leaving because of the salary. They are leaving because they feel unseen, unsupported, and out of road. And the 2025 data makes that clearer than ever. This article breaks down why mentoring is the most effective answer to the retention crisis companies are quietly facing right now. From the numbers behind why people leave, to what good mentoring actually looks like in practice, to why women in particular are being underserved by most organisations, it is a practical, honest read for any HR or People leader who is tired of losing good people and ready to do something about it. The research is compelling. The cost of doing nothing is significant. And the solution is more straightforward than most companies think.

Can AI replace mentoring? What AI can do and what mentors still do better

AI is a powerful tool and we are not here to dismiss it. Use it to prepare, research, draft, and think out loud. But use it in your favor, as a starting point, not a substitute. Because there are things AI simply cannot do. It cannot know you. It cannot challenge you. It cannot sit with you in the harder moments and tell you the truth you needed to hear. It cannot grow with you over time and see the progress you cannot see yourself. That is what a mentor does. And no algorithm is coming for that anytime soon. Curious where AI ends and a mentor begins? The full article is waiting for you.

Career growth for women in Barcelona: startups, creative industries, and community

Barcelona is one of Europe's most community-driven cities, and that culture is what makes it unique for women building careers here. Professional relationships are built through genuine participation, not cold outreach. The startup and creative ecosystem is strong across tech, design, sustainability, and entrepreneurship, but growth does not happen automatically. The women who succeed fastest are the ones who invest in community as seriously as they invest in their skills, find mentors, and surround themselves with people who push them forward. Femme Palette is that community in Barcelona, bringing together ambitious women through mentoring, events, and a peer network that extends across Europe.
