Mendful

Help compassion
go viral
AND, finally feel heard
and understood
​Mendful.world is a new app-in-progress that will provide on-demand conflict resolution. We think the best way to demonstrate what Mendful can do is to show rather than tell — with videos!
​
We’re seeking volunteers (small compensation offered — see logistics below) for four types of videos:
-
Different viewpoints around social or political issues that lots of people share — mediating between two people who represent different sides of a large issue can have ripple effects that impact far beyond just the two mediants. We're currently arranging mediations for Israel-Palestine, Democrat-Republican, and any other highly contested issues with folks willing to come to the table.
-
Interpersonal conflict resolution — we'll mediate a real-life conflict between you and someone else so that you both feel heard and understood.
-
“Do-overs” — revisit a one-time or ongoing conflict with another, and let us help you find a new path forward.
-
Celebrity stand-in — participants play the role of two public figures (living or dead) in conflict. Examples: contestants on Love is Blind, AOC and Andrew Jackson; or Justin Baldoni and Blake Lively.
-
Other types of conflicts — we’re open to ideas. One might be that two of enact a conflict you've had before, even though it's resolved; or that you enact a conflict you've seen others experience.

Logistics
-
All participants will be asked to sign a release allowing us to use the videos for education and marketing purposes on Mendful.world.
-
If you’d like, we’ll include a brief bio (2 lines max) with a link back to your website.
-
We can’t guarantee that we’ll use any particular video.
-
Once we publish your video, you’re welcome to use it anywhere you want.
-
All participants will receive three $100 gift certificates that they can use (or give away) for services on the Mendful app, regardless of whether or not we use your video.
-
The Mendful app is slated to launch toward the end of 2026.​
