Creating Harmony Through Mindful Technology

At District 3, we're excited to highlight Cedulify, an innovative pre-seed venture in the Social Innovation sector founded by Anne-Pascale Ménard. This compassionate entrepreneur is developing solutions in the Wellness space that address fundamental challenges in maintaining balance and preventing burnout.

The Challenge

In today's fast-paced world, many people experience significant psychological distress and burnout, particularly during major life transitions:

• Career shifts and professional changes
• Taking on new responsibilities
• Managing competing priorities
• Navigating personal and professional identities

These challenges often lead to diminished well-being and a disconnection from one's authentic self and values.

The Innovation

Anne-Pascale has created a holistic solution that goes beyond typical wellness apps:

• A mobile application functioning as a mindful planner
• Tools that guide users through meaningful self-reflection practices
• Actionable frameworks for improving overall well-being
• Resources for finding harmony across different life domains

Cedulify's unique approach combines psychological insights with practical planning tools, helping users take concrete steps toward greater balance and fulfillment.

Professional Expertise

As an occupational therapist, Anne-Pascale brings valuable professional expertise to Cedulify's development. Her background provides deep insights into:

• Creating environments that foster personal well-being
• Understanding the complex factors that influence daily functioning
• Designing tools that promote harmony and balance
• Developing practical interventions for real-life challenges

This foundation in healthcare and wellness gives Cedulify a distinctive approach grounded in both science and compassion.

The District 3 Impact

District 3 has played a pivotal role in Cedulify's development journey:

• Providing crucial validation for Anne-Pascale's initial concept
• Offering opportunities for essential skill development
• Creating access to a supportive community of like-minded innovators
• Fostering an environment that values social impact

Vision for the Future

Anne-Pascale's ambitions for Cedulify extend beyond immediate business goals:

• Fostering more conscious living in an increasingly disconnected world
• Creating deeper connections between people and their authentic values
• Developing tools that future generations—including her own children—can benefit from
• Promoting a broader cultural shift toward redefining success through life balance

"District 3 was really helpful in validating my idea, giving me new skills, and using the same language as I use in terms of creating social impact in the world. So that felt amazing because I felt like I belong somewhere, that I feel supported by a community. D3 creates those spaces, virtual and physical, where you can get the mentorship and the coaching, but also be inspired by other startups and entrepreneurs."
