Logo Meaning

The logo is built around a flowing S shaped curve that represents the personal sobriety journey. It is not linear or rigid, but intentional, showing movement, progress, and self control over time. The curve reflects staying steady through change, choosing awareness over impulse. At the center, the eye symbolizes awakening and clarity. It represents conscious choice, self awareness, and the moment of seeing life clearly without substances. Together, the symbol communicates inner control, presence, and the power of staying awake to yourself and your path.

1. User Understanding

Identified the core user as someone navigating sobriety while still wanting structure, clarity, and autonomy. The key problem was mental overload and lack of simple daily support during moments of craving, anxiety, or self doubt.

2. Strategic Framing

Translated that problem into a low friction product concept: one card per day, no hierarchy, no judgment. The 31 card format removes decision fatigue while reinforcing consistency, making the practice feel supportive rather than demanding.

3. Intentional Experience Design

Designed each card to act as a mental pause point. Short, direct prompts encourage awareness and self regulation, helping users reconnect with intention instead of reacting impulsively.
