After an inspiring chat with Dex at the #CreativeInnovators hub, the team gathers to discuss a new direction for their startup: Focusing on creating services that enhance digital well-being.
They recognize that in an increasingly connected world, mental health and a healthy relationship with screens are becoming essential issues for young urban folks.
Dex subtly guided the team, showing that digital well-being isn’t just about taking breaks from screens; it’s about building a tech environment that supports a healthy and balanced lifestyle.
“Consider how your solutions can help people better manage their online time, reduce stress, and foster a healthier relationship with technology,” he advises.
The squad decides that their value proposition will focus on three main aspects:
Providing users with information and resources to better understand the impacts of technology on their mental health and well-being.
Developing features that help users manage their online time, promote healthy habits, and facilitate access to support services when needed.
Creating a safe and welcoming space where users can share experiences, find support, and cultivate digital well-being practices.
During their brainstorm sesh, the crew busts out idea boards and digital gear to cook up their plans. They’re talking about adding stuff like screen time trackers, chill-out reminders, mood diaries, and easy links to mental health pros.
Dex is all about getting the squad to think about how they can wrap all these dope features into a slick and user-friendly platform that’s lit AF. He’s saying they should whip up some basic mock-ups of their sickest ideas and vibe-check them with potential users to get that instant feedback.
As the meeting wraps up, the squad has a clear outline of how their digital wellness services can make a difference in people’s lives.
They recognize that the next crucial step will be validating these ideas with their target audience, ensuring that the proposed solutions meet their real needs and expectations.
With a plan in hand and Dex’s support, the team gears up for the validation and refinement phase of their ideas, eager to contribute to a future where technology promotes not only connectivity but also well-being.
