Showcasing young writers and artists of all genders, colours, dimensions, persuasions, and abilities, good girl magazine’s intelligent, thought-provoking content explored perspectives on youth, genders, politics, fads, pop culture, and feminisms.

We challenged the status quo in all of our processes, from editing to advertising, and provided an ethical alternative to the mainstream women’s media.
