You know Millennials and Gen Z are having a cultural moment when the BBC, the Telegraph, and the Guardian can’t seem to stop writing about us.

So instead of another think piece, I’ve pulled together some blogs that Millennials and Gen Z actually love reading.

As the founder of the UK’s first Millennial and Gen Z blog, I’ve spent the past 15 years researching, writing about and commenting on generational behaviour, culture and consumer trends. My work and insights have been featured in The Guardian, BBC Woman’s Hour, Forbes and Grazia Magazine.

1. Slash Career

Slash Career is a blog/newsletter about creative money, portfolio careers, mindset and building a life around multiple income streams rather than one fixed job title. Its tagline is “Income > job,” with writing on money, work, ambition, creative living and the emotional side of becoming more independent.

It’s for people who want more freedom, more income options, and a career that actually fits their brain.

2. FLESH WORLD

Jessica DeFino is an award-winning beauty journalist.

She started FLESH WORLD five years ago to report on the absurd world of beauty culture and cover what traditional beauty publications don’t, won’t, or can’t — whether that’s to appease advertisers, preserve brand relationships, or cling to the conventional wisdom, outdated ideals, and marketing myths that keep consumers consuming.

It’s since become the newsletter “the beauty industry fears,” according to The Herald.

3. Lucky Attitude

Lucky Attitude is the UK’s first Millennial & Gen Z blog written by Tanya Korobka. It covers generational behaviour, work, money, culture, consumer trends and the strange business of trying to build a life that doesn’t look like your parents’ template.

Sharp, first-hand commentary on Millennials and Gen Z from someone who has been writing about these generations since 2013.

4. Career Contessa

Whether you’re beginning your career, navigating a transition at work, or negotiating your next raise, Career Contessa has the resources you need to make the most of it.

Practical career advice that is actually usable: scripts, templates, negotiation tips and sensible guidance for dealing with the awkward bits of work nobody teaches you properly. It’s especially good for Millennial and Gen Z women trying to build careers with more confidence, clarity and control.

5. Salty

Unapologetic and intersectional, Salty is not here for censorship or the corporate brand of feminism. This volunteer-run, independent website is dedicated to amplifying the voices of women, trans, and nonbinary people on topics others may otherwise shy away from.

It’s especially good for readers who like feminism with bite, first-person essays that actually say something, and cultural commentary that understands the politics of being.

6. Feed Me

Feed Me is a daily newsletter about the spirit of enterprise. Part of the publication focuses on genuinely interesting original reporting, with a focus on American subcultures through the lens of business.

The author Emily Sundberg values clarity, relevance, inside stories, and the art of debate.

Wait But Why  the blog I don’t quite get. It talks about all kind of weird things. It’s definitely millennial. Or anti-millennial.

8. A-Mail

A-Mail is Anna Codrea-Rado’s blog/newsletter about work, money, ambition and the emotional messiness of modern careers.

You’ll like it if you want thoughtful, funny writing about what work actually feels like — envy, disappointment, status, burnout, reinvention and all the strange little feelings that sit underneath a “career”.

9. The Hyphen by Emma Gannon

The Hyphen is a newsletter/blog run by Millennial poster girl, Sunday Times Bestselling author Emma Gannon.

A cosy space for curious readers. Here you will find musings on work, wellbeing and creativity. I am a firm believer that you can create your own career path.

13. Amie McNee

Amie McNee is a writer, podcaster and creative advocate whose Substack is for people who want to take their art seriously without apologising for it.

You’ll like her if you’re tired of the idea that creativity should be squeezed politely around “real work”. She writes about art, self-belief, money, rest, rejection and the uncomfortable business of wanting a creative life badly enough to actually build one. It’s emotional, direct, very good for anyone trying to make peace with wanting more than a job.

14. Millennial Marketing

Millennial Marketing team provides insight and commentary on the latest Millennial consumer and marketing trends.

Editor JEFF FROMM is known as the “Millennial Marketing Guy”™.

15. Elite Daily

Elite Daily was and is massively popular among the Millennials.

The Voice Of Generation-Y; news from your world delivered the way you want to hear it.

Elite Daily feels like Buzzfeed without pets, or Millennial Huff Po.

16. Workbaby

Workbaby.com is a smart, practical workplace blog/newsletter by Soph, an ex-Google senior manager, written for people who want to get better at work without becoming corporate robots.

You’ll like it if you want clear scripts, sharper communication, office politics explained plainly, and advice on how to be taken seriously at work — especially early in your career. It’s useful without being cringe, strategic without being soulless, and very good on the tiny work moments nobody formally teaches you.

17. Frugal Chic

Frugal Chic by Mia McGrath is a money newsletter about building wealth in your 20s without making your life feel small.

She gives practical writing on investing, financial independence and spending intentionally but without the usual beige “stop buying coffee” energy. It’s for people who want to be sensible with money while still enjoying nice things, and good taste.

18. Broke Millennial

Broke Millennial is the journey of a 26-year-old Erin learning to be a fiscally responsible member of “Generation Me.”

“Since my fateful first lesson in economics I’ve become fascinated with building wealth and understanding money. Unfortunately, some of my fellow millennials don’t find money so empowering.

I started this site to increase financial literacy — mostly through telling funny financial tales from my own life and sneaking in an actual money lesson.”

19. Life After College

Life After College is a blog by Jenny Blake who inspires you to WAKE UP to your life – not to sleepwalk through it, or live it based on others’ expectations.

Jenny wants you to LIVE BIG – to go all out, to take great leaps, and to take big risks even if you are afraid of failure…especially when you are afraid of failure. Finally, she want to help you to live the life of purpose and greatness.

20. Our Era Magazine

Our Era Magazine is a Gen-Z-led print and digital magazine focused on fashion, politics, music, social justice, mental health, and identity. Our goal is to highlight incredible youth doing groundbreaking work in all creative industries.

21. Autostraddle

A past winner of the GLAAD Media Award for Outstanding Blog, Autostraddle has transformed the lives of lesbian, bisexual, and queer women (as well as non-binary people) for nearly 10 years.

Covering LGBTQ+ news, TV, film, dating, politics, identity, relationships and internet life, it describes itself as a major independent website for lesbian culture that is inclusive of trans and nonbinary people and queer women.

It’s smart, funny, deeply online writing that treats queer culture as culture –  personal, political, pop-cultural and community-minded, with the kind of voice that feels like it was built by actual readers rather than a brand team.

22. Link in Bio

Link in Bio by Rachel Karten is a social media blog/newsletter for people who want to understand what actually works online now.

You’ll like it if you want smart, current thinking on brand voice, platform behaviour, internet culture and why some posts travel while others die quietly in a content calendar. It’s especially good if you work in marketing, run a brand, or simply enjoy watching people try to make social media look more effortless than it is.

23. Gen-Z Magazine

The site Gen-Z Magazine is an online magazine/blog focused on culture, trends, fashion, lifestyle, arts, and entertainment

24. A Low Desire To Please

A Low Desire To Please by Jameela Jamil is a funny, furious and deeply personal newsletter about bodies, shame, social justice, relationships, ageing, failure and the general chaos of being alive.

You’ll like it if you want writing that feels unfiltered without being empty noise: part confessional, part cultural rant, part emotional debrief. It’s especially good for readers who like their feminism loud, messy, human and allergic to being palatable. Jamil describes it as a varied insight into her brain, covering the human condition, loneliness, bodies, health and the things that shape our decisions.

25. Mark Manson

MarkManson.net is the blog of bestselling author Mark Manson, known for sharp, funny and painfully honest writing about psychology, relationships, self-awareness and modern life.

It’s very Millennial in the best way: allergic to fluff, suspicious of toxic positivity, and much more interested in telling the truth than making everything sound inspirational.

26. Mic
