Who Are We?

Last updated

Want to know who's behind Wengood? A team of passionate people in search of wellness. Here, we share with you our stories, our trials and tribulations and our advice to help you move forward on the path towards serenity.

"Happiness starts here"

Challenges, advice, personal stories, podcasts, videos... we accompany you on a daily basis to help you take life in the right direction. At this precise moment you must say to yourself "mmm, another psychology and wellbeing site - namaste", well no! What makes us different are our stories! No question of judging or tyrannizing you, here we reveal our anxieties, our problems and our little achievements.

Our goal? To allow you to identify certain behaviors, to become aware of them, to laugh about them and to accept or get rid of them according to your needs of the moment. You don't have to be perfect, happy are the crackpots who let the light shine through, as long as you love yourself just as you are.

And because we know the benefits of a session with a good shrink, we put you in touch with qualified coaches and psychologists by phone. Studies and shrinks themselves say it, by phone it works as well as face-to-face, or even better because the phone removes certain brakes or prejudices.

Our history

This site was born in early 2020 and based on the idea of bringing you a wellness and psychology space. We wanted a site in its own right to express ourselves and go through with our project, so here we are! 🙏

A hello from our Editors - Katie, Lauren, and Rosie

We're here and ready to open my heart to you on a daily basis.

What is Neuroatypicality? Why Is It Being Talked About?

If there’s one article I was eager to write for Wengood, it’s this one. I’m part of what’s called the “neuro-A” community, in other words, “neuroatypical” individuals.

Intense anger outbursts, disproportionate verbal and physical aggression… These are all signs that may indicate intermittent explosive disorder (IED).

My Sister Is Jealous Of Me

“In any case, you’re the favorite.” I’ve heard this phrase coming from my sister’s mouth over and over again.
