Publication terms
Become a
heroine.
“A woman is more than any one of her roles”
We accept applications to our waiting list: the editors will contact you within 24 hours and offer an issue date. The archive of issues No. 1–15 is open to read. We write about women who author their lives: building a business, a career, a new life in another country. The editors choose heroines for their results and decisions, not fame. A place in the magazine is never for sale.
Editorial selection
We don’t publish everyone. We choose.
Every heroine and every story is chosen by the editors. We look at a result you can name, the decision that created it, and the truthfulness of the facts. Fame, followers or taking part in CLIRIUM® ME programs don’t guarantee publication — and a place in the magazine can’t be bought.

What you get
Your story — in the magazine.
From interview to publication — 3–6 weeks. The editors choose the heroines; we offer an issue date from the waiting list.
General rules
For all heroines.
Facts, dates and numbers in the text are real. We don’t publish invented stories or other people’s achievements.
The story is told in your voice. The editor adds comments but doesn’t rewrite your life.
The final text is sent to the heroine before release. Personal details — only with your consent.
We don’t publish medical advice or guaranteed results — only personal experience.
High-quality portraits or participation in a shoot are needed. The editors prepare the cover.
The piece is published in Clirium’s Magazine and may be used in CLIRIUM® channels with credit to the heroine.
We publish nothing without an agreement. A publication agreement is signed with every heroine.
Work on an issue follows a schedule. If you’re busy or not interested right now, please don’t apply: we work with those who want to tell their story.
For invited heroines
Selection criteria.
One condition
The issue is free. One condition — a permanent link to your issue.
After your issue comes out, you place a link to it where it will stay: on your website — in the “Press” or “About” section, on LinkedIn — in “Featured”, and if you have no website — in your profile bio or a pinned post. Everything is prepared for you: the “Featured in Clirium’s Magazine” badge with code for your site and a text for your “Press” section — the editors send all of this to you personally, via a private link, after publication. How you present the link is up to you — but it can’t be removed: the link to your issue stays forever, this is a condition of the agreement. If you’re not ready to keep a permanent link, tell us before the interview: it’s fairer for both sides.
01How do I get into Clirium’s Magazine?
Fill in the heroine application on the “Become a heroine” page. The editors choose heroines by their results and decisions; CLIRIUM® ME participants apply to the shared waiting list. We reply within 24 hours.
02Is publication in Clirium’s Magazine paid?
No. A place in the magazine is not for sale: the editors choose the heroines. One condition for every heroine — after publication, place a permanent link to your issue on your website or profile.
03Who do the editors choose?
Women with a result you can name: business founders, women who built a life and career in another country, and those who began a second act — after 40, a divorce or a difficult relationship.
04What does a heroine get?
An interview with the editors, publication in Russian and English, an original cover, “Rules of Life”, the “Featured in Clirium’s Magazine” badge with code for your site and a text for your “Press” section.
05How long does publication take?
From interview to publication — 3–6 weeks. The heroine approves the text and cover before publication.
06How is Clirium’s Magazine different from paid placements?
In many magazines a heroine’s place is bought. Ours is not for sale: the editors choose the heroines, the interview is conducted by the magazine’s founder Victory Naydenova, a publication agreement is signed with the heroine, and she approves the text and cover before release. The story stays in the magazine’s open archive in two languages.
