Our standards
Editorial Standards
Our focus
The Becoming Times covers one subject: people becoming more than they were before. We write about personal transformation, identity, mindset, voice and communication, leadership, and the stories of people rebuilding their lives. When we cover a world news story, it is because it says something about that journey.
How articles are written
Our articles are produced by The Becoming Times Staff using AI writing tools, under the direction of our publisher, Gerard Grogans. Every article is written in our own words and draws on his teaching and books, and on recorded interviews.
Sources and quotes
When an article is based on reporting by another outlet, we name that outlet and link to the original story. We never invent facts, figures or quotes. Quotes in our interviews and member stories come only from the recording, which we publish with the article.
Photos and images
The Becoming Times uses realistic AI-generated editorial images to visually represent certain world-news and commentary stories. These images are created for editorial presentation and are not photographs taken at the actual event. Real photographs of Gerard Grogans, members, events, and other documented subjects are identified and used separately.
Independence
The Becoming Times is published by Gerard Grogans, who also runs The Transformational Life Coaching Experience. We say so wherever an article links to his work.
