Daily news can be a tricky thing to navigate. With so many different sources and perspectives, it can be difficult to know who to trust and what information is truly important.
That's why Rob set out to create a newsletter that he wished was in his inbox every day, one that cut through the noise and delivered the most pertinent information in a format that was easy to digest.
Tip News is a well-rounded daily brief that you can trust, with practical life tips, fun recommendations and a dash of humor thrown in for good measure. Their experts comb through hundreds of sources every day to present you with the most important stories, without any of the sensationalism or clickbait that you might find elsewhere, and because they are independently owned and operated. You can be sure that you're getting the facts, not someone else's opinion.
Youāll quickly feel how empowering it is to stay āin-the-knowā, without supporting multi-national, centralized, news conglomerates. Imagine a quick, organized and enlightening news brief that actually supports your mental wellness, instead of weaponizing your emotions against you (like normal news).Ā

Now, you may be wondering, how does this all relate to personal development and self-improvement?
The answer is simple: knowledge is power. By keeping ourselves informed on current events, we can better understand the world around us and make more informed decisions. Yet it's not just about staying informed on what's happening in the world, it's also about how we process that information.
By consuming news that is free from bias and sensationalism, we can avoid falling into the trap of confirmation bias and instead, approach each topic with an open mind.
Additionally, by subscribing to Tips News, you'll also gain access to practical life tips and fun recommendations that can help you in your personal and professional life.
Here are just a few of the benefits you can expect from subscribing to Tips News:
- Stay informed on current events without feeling manipulated by sensationalism or clickbait

At Tip News, they recognize the cultural and psychological harm of promoting an āus vs. themā mentality when delivering the facts. They imagine a world where everyone can be kept well informed without the need to put others down because of who they are or what they believe.

When Rob set out to create Tips News, he had a simple goal in mind, to create the newsletter he wished was in his inbox every day. Over the past few years, he, like many of us, had become increasingly frustrated with the unyielding bias of major media outlets. The news shouldnāt be telling us how to interpret the facts, it should just be delivering them, plain and simple.
Being bombarded with consistently skewed news has very real consequences on culture. The mainstream media industry capitalizes on intentional divisiveness and has become centralized to the point of directly steering public opinion. Rob co-founded this company because he cares deeply about societal mental wellness and creating the conditions for a more compassionate, regenerative future.Ā
After using Tip News myself, I can confirm his team is over-delivering a valuable solution.
As a subscriber of personal development and self-improvement content at Forward Steps, you're likely always on the lookout for ways to grow and improve yourself. I believe that staying informed and educated about the world around you is a crucial part of that journey.
