Elise Marchetti
Founding Editor
Elise shapes what we cover and why. Her rule for every piece: would this genuinely help a reader on their hardest day?
Our story
Built on the belief that calm, honest information is care in itself.
Solenne began in 2018 as a quiet response to noisy, hurried wellbeing content. We wanted somewhere readers could exhale - and still leave better informed.
Independent since 2018
Our mission
Good information should be easy to find and easy to trust.
Everything we publish is made to genuinely help the reader. We research properly, write plainly, and update as the world changes - so what you read here reflects how things actually are now.
We're deliberately small and deliberately slow. That's not a limitation; it's the point. It's what lets us treat tender subjects with the dignity they deserve, and lets you read without being rushed.
What guides us
Four principles, quietly held
Accuracy
We get the facts right and cite where it matters. Trust is the only currency that counts.
Clarity
Plain language, the answer first, no padding. You should never need a second read.
Independence
Reader-first, never hype-first. We publish what helps, not what trends.
Dignity
Several topics touch grief and disability. We write with stillness and deep respect.
The people behind it
A small studio, fully accountable
No anonymous content mill. Just a handful of people who care about getting it right and making it clear.
Rowan Devi
