About


Welcome to Unorthodoxy

Thank you for visiting! Whether you’re a new subscriber or a long-time follower, we’re glad you’re here. Let us introduce you to the essence of Unorthodoxy.

Unorthodoxy explores the spiritual dimensions of contemporary events and everyday life, providing a holistic perspective that acknowledges the interconnectedness of all aspects of existence. Our guiding principle is “examining spirituality within our material reality.” By integrating spiritual insights with practical wisdom, we foster a deeper understanding of the world around us.

The journey began with a personal quest for understanding. Initially writing on Medium in 2019, I was banned in 2021 due to my unconventional views on the pandemic. This led me to Substack, where Unorthodoxy was officially born in February 2022. Inspired by “The Personal MBA” and driven by economic shifts, I embarked on a three-year plan to develop businesses aligned with spiritual and natural principles. Now, in the first year of this journey, Unorthodoxy has grown, and I look forward to our continued evolution.

My name is Franklin O’Kanu, also known as The Alchemik Pharmacist. With a Doctorate in Pharmacy and extensive experience in the health sector, my background is rooted in both science and spirituality. Raised in a Pentecostal Christian household, I later embraced Eastern philosophies, quantum physics, Jungian psychology, and alchemy. This diverse background allows me to see the interconnectedness of all things, a perspective I share through Unorthodoxy.

Unorthodoxy offers a spiritual lens on various topics, from current events to personal growth. Our content is divided into free and paid tiers. Free content (5-7 minutes read) covers a broad range of subjects, while paid content (8-15 minutes read) dives deeper into spiritual aspects. Articles draw insights from influential books like “Getting Things Done” by David Allen, “Thinking Fast and Slow” by Daniel Kahneman, and many others.
