In a world where 190 million people with endometriosis face an average 6-12 year diagnostic delay, we envision a future where chronic pain is met with immediate understanding, not dismissal. Glide responds to the critical gap between symptom diagnosis and medical validation, a void filled with confusion, isolation, and silenced suffering. How can we design an empathetic digital mentor that empowers people to articulate their experiences with chronic pain, offering consistent daily guidance and helping them communicate more effectively with healthcare providers?
