Write for Us Lifestyle: Lifestyle Blog Guest Post Guidelines
Yes, lifestyle guest posts are accepted on this blog. The reader is a business owner or founder who wants their life to work as hard as their business does, so posts on wellbeing, routines, travel, home and money habits all fit. What gets declined is generic listicle advice with no real story behind it, plus content written for search engines rather than a person living the routine.
Lifestyle content usually fails because it repeats the same ten tips every other blog has already published, with no proof the writer has lived any of it. Readers can tell within a sentence when a routine has never been tried, a trip has never been taken, or a money habit has never been followed through. What this blog wants instead is one specific change you made, what it cost you in time or money, and what happened next, written by someone who did the thing rather than researched it.
I built this blog for business owners who also have to eat, sleep, travel and pay bills like everyone else. My readers are founders and marketers who want their personal life to run as well as their business does. They read lifestyle posts here for the same reason they read my business posts: for one idea that changes how they spend a Tuesday, not another list of things they already know.
60-second lifestyle guest post check
A strong submission can answer yes to all five points:
- Have I lived this routine, trip or habit myself?
- Does this post name one specific change and what it cost or saved?
- Would a tired business owner read this on a Sunday night and act on it Monday?
- Is every example real, with no invented names or numbers?
- Have I checked this has not been published anywhere else first?
Read the guidelines and submit your guest post.

How to submit
Send your pitch or draft through the contact form. Include the topic, the one specific problem the post solves, and a line on your first-hand experience with it. One idea per pitch works best. You will hear back on whether it is a fit before you write the full draft.
What a strong lifestyle pitch looks like
A weak pitch says I would like to write a post about the top ten life hacks for entrepreneurs. A strong one says I cut my morning routine from ninety minutes to twenty five and want to write about the three things I dropped and what changed. One is a brochure. The other is worth reading.
The angles that get accepted fastest
- A specific routine change with a before and after number
- A travel trip that went wrong and what it taught you about planning
- A money habit that freed up a fixed amount of time or cash each month
- A home or family system that removed one recurring stress
- A burnout recovery story with what worked, not just rest

Frequently asked questions
Does Lilach Bullock accept lifestyle guest posts?
Yes, lifestyle guest posts are accepted on this blog. We publish first-hand pieces on wellbeing, routines, travel, home and money habits, written for business owners and founders who are juggling a full working life alongside everything else. The bar is real experience: a routine you tried, a trip you took, or a habit you changed, with what happened as a result.
What lifestyle topics do you accept?
Wellbeing and energy management, daily and weekly routines, travel that fits around work, home setups that support long hours, money habits and budgeting, sleep and burnout recovery, and family life alongside running a business. Anything with a specific, personal angle and a real outcome is worth pitching.
Can I include a link back to my own site?
One contextual link back to your own site is fine when it is relevant and useful to the reader in that spot. Posts written purely to build links, with no real story or value, are not published. Keep the link natural and in context, not bolted on at the end.
Do you accept previously published content?
No. Every submission needs to be original and not published anywhere else, including your own blog, Medium or LinkedIn. Republished or reworded content is declined, even if it was your own writing to begin with. We check before anything goes live, so save the piece for a first outing here instead.
How do I submit?
Send your pitch through the contact form before you write a full draft. Include the topic, the specific change or experience the post is built on, and a line on why you are the right person to write it. One idea per pitch works best, and you will hear back before investing time in the piece.
Do you accept sponsored or commercial partnerships?
Sponsored and commercial partnerships are handled separately from editorial guest posts. If you are pitching on behalf of a brand or want a paid placement, say so on the contact form and you will get the right process back rather than an editorial guest post reply.
How long should a lifestyle guest post be?
There is no fixed word count, but posts that land tend to run long enough to walk through one routine, trip or habit change in real detail, usually around a thousand to fifteen hundred words. Depth and a real story matter far more than hitting a number.
What makes a lifestyle pitch stand out?
A specific change with a number attached, whether that is time saved, money saved or a habit dropped, stands out immediately. Editors are looking for one true story told well, not a broad overview of wellbeing or travel that could have been written by anyone.
