I've noticed something strange on wellness websites.
Nobody seems to age.
Everybody is permanently six months away from becoming a better version of themselves.
Read enough of these sites and you'd think life is one long queue leading directly to better sleep, more energy and inner peace.
Just stick around.
Your turn is coming.
What never seems to make the page is the alternative.
The prospect who does nothing.
Not because they're lazy.
Because most people do what most people do.
They wait.
They wait until work settles down.
Until the kids are older.
When summer's over.
Just wait till January.
Then another January.
An asthma coach isn't competing against bad breathing.
They're competing against "I'll deal with it later."
A sleep coach isn't competing against insomnia.
They're competing against another year disappearing into the same morning routine.
Alarm. Snooze. Regret. Repeat.
That's the part I rarely see wellness founders talk about.
Everybody loves the transformation.
Nobody mentions the tab that's been running in the background the entire time.
Which is odd.
Because that's usually the reason people buy.

There's a trip you keep meaning to take. A person you keep meaning to call. A version of your life you assume you'll get around to — later, when things settle down.
We all do this. We treat time like it's infinite, because the alternative is uncomfortable to look at. "Someday" stretches out in front of us, soft and endless, so we move the things that matter into it. There's no rush. There's always next year.
But almost none of us actually know how much time we're working with. We picture "the rest of my life" as a vague, generous cloud — we've never seen it counted out.
The Rest of My Time counts it out. You enter your birthday and the age you want to reach, and it shows you the time in between — not as a warning, but as a picture of what's still yours, and a prompt to actually plan it.
The design challenge
My first versions were dark, accurate, and awful. Nobody opens an app that makes them feel like sand running out of an hourglass. So the core of the design work wasn't the interface; it was reframing the exact same numbers to point at possibility instead of loss.
Most products fight for your time. This one tries to give it back to you — by making the invisible visible, so you can stop saving your life for later.

Life Compass
AI-Powered Direction for Personal Growth
Website live link: https://delightful-crumble-a984f6.netlify.app/
Overview
Life Compass is an AI-powered personal growth platform designed to help people discover where to focus their attention to create meaningful change in their lives.
In a world filled with productivity tools, self-help content, and endless advice, many people are not suffering from a lack of information—they are suffering from a lack of clarity.
Life Compass helps users identify the one area of their life that deserves attention right now by visualizing life as an interconnected system.
Rather than trying to improve everything at once, users receive personalized guidance toward the highest-leverage opportunity for growth.
The Problem
Millions of people feel stuck despite being ambitious, capable, and motivated.
They often ask themselves:
What should I focus on next?
Why do I feel overwhelmed?
Why am I working hard but not making meaningful progress?
Which area of my life deserves attention right now?
Existing solutions focus on:
Productivity
Goal tracking
Habit building
Time management
However, these tools assume users already know what matters most.
The real challenge often comes earlier:
People lack direction.
Without clarity, even motivated individuals struggle to create meaningful progress.
Life Compass was built to solve this problem.
The Solution
Life Compass acts as a navigation system for life.
Through a guided reflection process, users explore key dimensions of their lives, including:
Career
Relationships
Health
Purpose
Energy
Confidence
Learning
Financial Wellbeing
The platform analyzes these dimensions as an interconnected system and identifies:
Areas of strength
Areas of opportunity
Relationships between life dimensions
The highest-leverage direction for growth
The result is a personalized Life Compass that helps users understand where to focus and why.
Key Features
Guided Reflection Experience
Users begin with a thoughtful assessment designed to feel more like a conversation than a survey.
The experience encourages reflection and self-awareness while collecting insights across multiple life dimensions.
Interactive Life Compass
The Life Compass visualizes the user's life as a living system.
Each life dimension becomes a connected node within a dynamic map.
Users can explore how different aspects of their lives influence one another and gain a deeper understanding of where change can create the greatest impact.
Compass Reveal
The Compass Reveal is the emotional centerpiece of the experience.
Rather than presenting scores or analytics, Life Compass reveals:
Strongest Area
Biggest Opportunity
Next Direction
This transforms reflection into clarity and provides users with a meaningful starting point for growth.
Future Self Simulator
Users can visualize how small, consistent actions may influence their future over time.
The Future Self Simulator helps transform abstract self-improvement into a tangible and motivating experience.
Design Philosophy
Life Compass is inspired by the belief that every life is its own universe.
The visual system combines themes from:
Navigation systems
Astronomy
Connected ecosystems
Personal reflection
The experience was intentionally designed to feel:
Calm
Reflective
Premium
Hopeful
Human
The interface uses cosmic environments, glowing connections, depth, motion, and immersive storytelling to reinforce the idea that every aspect of life is interconnected.
The goal was to create an experience that feels less like software and more like self-discovery.
Figma Workflow
This project was built using Figma's ecosystem of AI-powered tools.
Figma Design
The product journey, information architecture, user flows, and interface design were developed inside Figma.
Multiple iterations were explored to refine onboarding, storytelling, interaction patterns, and visual hierarchy.
Figma Make
Figma Make was used to rapidly transform concepts into functional interfaces.
Using natural language prompts, layouts and interactions were generated, tested, and refined, allowing more time to focus on product strategy, user experience, and storytelling.
Figma MCP + Cursor
Figma MCP was connected with Cursor to bridge the gap between design and implementation.
This workflow enabled design context to remain intact throughout development, accelerating iteration and improving consistency between design and code.
Figma Weave
Figma Weave was used to explore visual concepts, create immersive mockups, and generate creative assets aligned with the Life Compass vision.
These assets helped communicate the product story and establish a cohesive visual identity.
Impact
Life Compass is an exploration of how design and AI can help people make better life decisions.
The project demonstrates how thoughtful user experience, visual storytelling, and AI-assisted workflows can transform complex personal challenges into actionable clarity.
The long-term vision is to create a platform that helps people navigate uncertainty, discover meaningful direction, and build lives with greater intention.
What Makes Life Compass Different
Most personal growth tools ask:
"What should you do more of?"
Life Compass asks:
"What matters most right now?"
That shift—from productivity to clarity—is the foundation of the product.
Because people do not always need more information.
They need direction.
Built for Config Makeathon 2025
Designed using Figma Design, Figma Make, Figma MCP, Cursor, and Figma Weave.
Life Compass explores how AI-powered design workflows can be used to solve meaningful human problems through thoughtful product experiences.
