Tadpole Press

At Compassiviste Publishing, we’ve had the privilege of working closely with Tadpole Press ~ especially around their writing contests and the launch of their new literary magazine. What we’ve learned: when two organizations decide to support one another rather than view each other as rivals, something remarkable happens. Ideas expand, creative energy multiplies, and everyone benefits.

This is what fills me with hope: These authors entered a short writing contest. Now their words are published in an international anthology whose profits support humanitarian and sustainability projects. That’s how you go from a contest entry to global impact.

We believe in the power of stories to drive change. Every episode of the Compassiviste Dialogues podcast is a platform for turning compassion into action. A space where diverse voices come together to inspire, educate, and challenge the status quo.
