Humetrical ( https://humetrical.com ) -- A wellness platform that puts people's mental health first by showing work metrics that matter. Because burnout blindness leads to exit interviews.

It wasn't until we had a leadership retreat at my day job with a fantastic speaker (Woodrie Burich) that the idea for my platform spawned. She talked about how the $50B wellness industry is doing it wrong. Your company is giving you useless yoga stipends, when truth is they should be paying attention to your overall well being. One idea she presented that resonated with me was using a traffic light-like system to gauge where your employees are mentally at.

I took that to heart and verbally applied it to my team. Then I realized that a platform would give better visuals of the data and be easier to incorporate into everyone's day to day. A couple months later I finally released it.
