the story
Breakups can leave you shattered. The grief is heavy. The spiral feels endless. Even with therapy and support, moving forward can feel impossible. If you’ve ever felt stuck, you’re not alone.
I’ve lived it. After a relationship that left me depleted, losing my father, and moving to a new city, I felt broken. I tried everything. What kept me afloat were small daily practices that actually moved the needle.
I couldn’t find one tool that brought those practices together, so I built it.
