About ALCHM
YOUR DIGITAL PROOF OF BECOMING.
ALCHM isn’t another app—it’s a rebellion against every system that told you to shrink yourself.
Built by Zadie Walker—a cycle-breaker turned founder—ALCHM was created for the kids who were labeled “too sensitive,” for the students who got behavior charts instead of reflection tools, for anyone who’s outgrown survival mode and is ready to build an identity on their own terms.
Founder’s Statement:
“I built ALCHM because I was done with the silence.
I’ve sat in rooms where the loudest people were the least self-aware.
I’ve felt the loneliness when therapy was too expensive—or too disconnected to feel real.
I’ve watched ‘wellness’ get flattened into fake positivity, mood dots, and color-coded worksheets that never touched the actual pain.
I wasn’t interested in helping young people mask their struggles better—I wanted to build the place where they could see themselves clearly, maybe for the first time.
Before ALCHM, I worked in youth spaces where identity was either erased or exploited. Where ‘unmotivated’ kids were just unsupported kids. Where every fire inside a young person was met with compliance checklists instead of clarity rituals.
ALCHM isn’t a wellness app—it’s an identity reclamation tool. A ritual. A daily resistance practice where your reflections become receipts of resilience.
Every feature is built on one belief:
You don’t need to be fixed.
You need to be witnessed.
You need frameworks—not filters—so you can reclaim your story and design your future.
That’s why we built ALCHM:
A GPT-powered reflection mentor that sounds like you—not like corporate therapy.
Cultural fluency is already baked in, because your identity deserves context.
Daily rituals that actually respect your complexity—no toxic positivity allowed.
This isn’t about ‘self-improvement.’
This is about survival alchemy.
Turning pain into power. Reflection into identity.
And receipts into your personal résumé of becoming.
ALCHM is for every young person who’s tired of being graded, diagnosed, or dismissed.
It’s for the ones who want to be seen.
It’s for the ones who are done performing—and ready to transform.
We didn’t build ALCHM to calm you down.
We built it to wake you up.”
— Zadie Walker, Founder of ALCHM
