Ressort! Grief Support Platform Development

When two entrepreneurs affected by bereavement came to me with their vision for a grief support platform, I knew this project would be deeply meaningful. Together, we created Ressort! - a safe haven for those navigating loss.

The Challenge: Create a digital space that feels genuinely supportive, not clinical. The platform needed to foster authentic connections while providing practical resources, all within an interface that communicates empathy from first glance.

Community-first design: Moderated discussion groups, private messaging, and story-sharing features that prioritize emotional safety

Resource library: Curated podcasts, expert advice, and guided practices organized by grief stage and type

Intuitive user journey: From free sign-up to finding relevant support groups in just a few clicks

My Approach: Using Bubble.io, I designed and developed the entire platform end-to-end. This no-code solution allowed me to focus on crafting a truly empathetic user experience while building complex features like user profiles, group management, and content curation systems.

Design Philosophy: Every color, typography choice, and interaction was intentionally crafted to create calm. Soft palettes, gentle animations, and carefully integrated personal testimonials transform what could be a sterile platform into a warm, welcoming community.

Impact: The platform now serves as a trusted space where bereaved individuals can connect, share, and heal together - exactly what the founders envisioned from their own experiences with loss. With a goal of reaching 1,000 recurring users by the end of 2025, Ressort! is positioned to become a vital resource in the grief support community.
