Investors say they pumpbed $1.2 million into Wondermind and claim they were misled about Gomez's involvement

In 2021, Selena Gomez, her mother Mandy Teefey, and The Newsette founder, Daniella Pierson, launched Wondermind with the goal of making costly mental health tools more accessible.

The media platform’s website, which has a sign-up for its newsletter, describes its origins: “One day, we were all talking about it and realized there was no easy, inclusive space where people could come together to explore, discuss, and navigate their feelings. So we thought, why not make it happen? And Wondermind was born.”

Now, five years after it began, Wondermind and its founders are being sued by investors who claim they pumped nearly nearly $1.2 million into Wondermind Global Inc. after they were fed false promises about the company’s infrastructure, leadership, and resources.
