Effective Date: July 11, 2025
At Anna on The Regular, we take pride in delivering content that’s honest, inclusive, well-researched, and emotionally intelligent. Whether we’re writing about relationships, life after bariatric surgery, product recommendations, or personal growth, our goal is always the same: to create content that informs, supports, and resonates with real people living real lives.
Here’s how we do it:
Our Content Creation Process
With so much information online, it can be hard to know what to trust. We’re committed to keeping things simple, transparent, and grounded in integrity. Our editorial team follows a structured content creation process that includes:
- In-depth research using reputable sources, including academic studies, medical insights, expert interviews, and user reviews
- A balanced approach to product recommendations, considering both affordability and quality
- A multi-step editorial review process to ensure clarity, accuracy, and tone alignment
- Frequent content updates to reflect new research, trends, or changes in products and services
- Transparent labeling of affiliate links and sponsored content
Every piece of content we publish is designed to be helpful, honest, and worthy of your trust.
Editorial Integrity
Our writers and editors are independent. We never allow personal bias, commercial pressure, or outside influence to dictate what we say or how we say it. Editorial content is never written in exchange for gifts, compensation, or favorable treatment.
We maintain a clear boundary between editorial and sponsored content. Anything that falls under the Sponsored category is labeled as such and does not necessarily reflect the opinions of our editorial team.
Inclusivity & Gender Neutrality
Modern life and relationships are beautifully diverse—and our content reflects that. We write for everyone, regardless of gender identity, sexual orientation, race, religion, or background.
- We aim for gender-neutral language throughout, using inclusive pronouns like “they” and “them”
- In cases where clarity requires, we may use “he” or “she,” but never to exclude
- Our examples, imagery, and stories are selected with diversity in mind
We believe everyone deserves to see themselves reflected with dignity and respect.
Diversity & Representation
Our community includes readers from all over the world, and so does our team. Our contributors bring a wide range of lived experiences, cultural perspectives, and personal beliefs to their work—but we are united by our shared commitment to kindness, truth, and responsible storytelling.
We do not discriminate, and we do not publish content that promotes harmful stereotypes, biased viewpoints, or exclusion based on race, religion, region, gender, sexual orientation, or socioeconomic status.
Tone & Voice
Our tone is what makes Anna on The Regular feel like home. We write with:
- A conversational, approachable voice
- Empathy and emotional intelligence
- Humor when appropriate, and softness when needed
- Zero tolerance for shame, judgment, or sensationalism
We’re not here to talk down to you or tell you how to live your life—we’re here to walk alongside you with stories, tools, and real talk.
Affiliate & Sponsored Content
Yes, we make money through affiliate links and partnerships—but our integrity is never for sale.
- Product recommendations are written independently and based on research
- Affiliate links are clearly disclosed and do not affect what we recommend
- Sponsored content is marked as Sponsored and follows strict editorial review standards
- We never accept ads or partnerships that promote harmful, illegal, or misleading products
