Creating deeper connections through curiosity, introspection and reflection.
We believe
At Archley's, we believe that getting to know oneself is a lifelong process, and that the relationship we cultivate with ourselves shapes the quality of our lives.
Our passion lies in creating tools that not only make space for this relationship to flourish, but also foster curiosity and mindful thinking. We see journaling as one of the most powerful tools for improving mental health, while also offering a framework for deeper exploration and critical thought.
At the heart of what we do is the belief that curiosity creates connection—both internally and externally. The depth of the relationship we nurture with ourselves influences the depth of our connections with others. When we engage in self-reflection, we develop a greater sense of empathy, understanding, and openness, which naturally expands into the connections with the people around us.
Who we are
We create journals & journalling tools that encourage reflection, introspection and conversation. You can find our products in 40+ stores around Australia.
Our goal is to make the process of self-reflection and exploration accessible and interconnected, integrating practices that span beyond the page and into conversation. Journaling sits at the heart of what we do because writing accesses core aspects of our cognition, shaping the world around us and, in turn, shaping the interactions we have and the relationships we build.
In a world filled with distractions, taking care of our inner environment has never been more important. With so much focus on external relationships—particularly in the digital space—it’s essential that we nurture the conversation that sits inside of ourselves. By deepening that relationship, we create a foundation that enhances all of our interactions with others, leading to more meaningful connections and richer experiences.

Hey, my name’s Jess, and I created Archley's off the back of tools and ideas that I’ve used to help myself. I started journaling when I was 11. It’s been a process that’s always brought me comfort and exists in my life as a friend.
“I write because I don't know what
I think until I read what I say.”
Flannery O'Connor
When I was 16, I was introduced to Cognitive Behavioural Therapy, a thought-based therapy that truly changed the game for me. Reframing my thoughts was a new concept, and I realised journaling was already powerful—but even more so when paired with simple guidelines.
This is what brought about the want to make these ideas more accessible. All the products we’ve created are designed to help you improve aspects of your behavior, whether it’s navigating disagreements, building healthy habits, or simply getting to know yourself better. I’ve worked closely with psychologists and coaches to ensure everything we create meets academic standards and, most importantly, that it’s helpful.
My hope with Archley's is to make foundational ideas from psychology and mindset both inviting and beautiful, because our thoughts deserve a nice home.
Thanks for stopping by, and if you have any questions, feel free to reach out. I’m always open to a conversation.
