We produce video programs, books, and live events with trusted voices in trauma, addiction, healing, and personal growth. Day to day, that means writing, editing, design, video production, animation, sound, photography, marketing, social media, community work, and all the tasks required to run a small, active creative team.

We are not a client service company. We are self-funded. No one hires us or pays us to create our programs. We choose our projects, our collaborators, and how we work. This allows us to focus on quality, honesty, and usefulness as we define it. We do the best work we can manage, and we treat our team and partners well. In short, we do what we want, on our terms and timeline.

Yes. Some of our team are full-time, some are part-time, some work on contract, depending on their skills and availability. We care about finding the right people and building around them. We do not have mindless positions that require checkbox qualifications.

Most of our work happens in person, at our office and on production shoots. We believe working together in person makes the work stronger and the team healthier. Some work can be done remotely when it makes sense, but if you are looking for a remote job, this is not the right fit.

We do not run on a strict schedule. Some people work early, some later. What matters is having enough overlap for collaboration. The key is trust and good judgment. We are flexible. The key is reciprocity: if you prioritize Wholehearted, Wholehearted will prioritize you. As a team we decided to work Tuesday to Friday, so that every week has a three-day weekend.

Yes. We do not believe in free work. Interns are paid for their time and treated as part of the team. We do not offer formal internship programs right now, but we are open to ideas if you have one. We accept volunteer work too, but that is up to you.

Not really. People here wear multiple hats and contribute in many ways. We care more about how you think, work, and collaborate than about what is printed on your business card.

Creative thinkers. People who can dream big and then break it into steps that get things done. People who balance vision with practical action. Strong organization and communication. Flexibility. The ability to work on short-term needs while building toward long-term goals.

Talent combined with good judgment. What does that look like? It looks like having a great idea and the skill to pull it off. It looks like setting a clear goal, then working backward to map out the steps to get there. It looks like building in time and space for things to change along the way, and knowing you will need to adjust when new challenges appear.

This is not just what helps people thrive here. It helps anywhere in life.

Utilizing the simplest tools, like a notepad. Write things down: to-do’s, process notes, reminders, ideas, specs, priorities. It is amazing how much clarity a written list can bring. Small victories lead to success.

We do well with people who care about what they do. Who are creative, curious, and emotionally open. Who want to contribute and learn. Who value integrity and team spirit. If you are looking for a place where your voice is heard and where you can actively contribute, this might be for you.

Clock punchers, coasters, and slackers, please apply elsewhere. People who just need a paycheck and want to find the easiest work available, Wholehearted is not the place for you. Someone that sees Wholehearted as a short-term stepping stone to something else, that is not fair to us. People who are seeking remote and unaccountable work, we do not have any positions for you.

People who struggle to collaborate, take feedback poorly, or stir up conflict. People who bring an "all about me" attitude. This is a team. Compromise and mutual aid are foundational here.

If you have serious unresolved issues, feel the need to tell others how to address you, need to get your way to feel validated, or bring strong ideological pressure that affects the team, you will not do well here. But we do offer programs that can help you.

Wholehearted is not a vessel for imposing a worldview on others. We are supportive and gentle when things come up, but it is important that your values and interests already align with what we do and how we do it.

We are not rigid. But to be able to dance together, it helps to start on the right foot with music we are both into.

It depends on the role, but it usually starts with a written introduction. We want to understand your experience, your work style, and your values. You will need to submit:

• A strong, personally written cover letter. Not AI generated. Not to show off or convince us you are a descendant of Shakespeare. Just to show you can communicate clearly about yourself, why you think you would be a good fit, and to start a conversation. (We’ve also received and enjoyed comic strips, video, and other alternatives to a written letter.) It does not have to be poetry or perfection. It just needs to be real.
• Your resume, portfolio, and a short note explaining what you are sharing and why it matters.

If we feel a connection, we may ask you to complete a short, custom questionnaire. If that looks promising, we will set up an initial 15-minute conversation to do a pulse check. If that goes well, you will be invited for a full conversation and interview with our founder and team lead, AJ.

Yes. If you have skills, ideas, or experience you think could help us, we want to hear from you. Tell us who you are, what you do, and how you think you could contribute.
