TEAM
We are a team of moms (and an awesome youth intern) spread across five time zones who have combined our various expertise to bring this children's magazine to life. But a magazine would not be complete without a diverse and inclusive pool of talented contributors. We aim to curate content from far and wide and bring in perspectives beyond our own so that the pages in Mighty Kind reflects the diversity we value so much.

"To be 'mighty kind' means to muster whatever strength, capacity, means, or influence we have and purposefully make choices to bring love, support, hope, friendship, inclusion, or any other variation of compassion to someone else."
Rachel Speirs | Co-Founder, Editor-In-Chief | Oakland, California
Mom, Writer/Editor/Photographer, nature-lover, maker.
“I’m so inspired by the enthusiasm of kids. If anyone can make the world a better place, it’s them. This magazine brings out the best in us. I think kindness is catching and I’m here for it.”
Victoria Stephens | COO | Draper, Utah

"There is no longer room to be simply kind and politely nice. Those things are important, but our world needs a wave of caregivers and kids who are mighty kind-- moving into a world of action."
