Building a fertility treatment tracking app...thoughts?

Hi all,

Trying not to self-promote here, but would really value the input of any women in this subreddit who could provide feedback on my new app!

To give some context, I am planning to go through IUI fertility treatment in the summer, and whilst preparing for this, i've learned how difficult it is to navigate. The sheer amount of consultations, appointments and tests you need to undertake, before you even start the process is very overwhelming. Not to mention, I use various mediums to keep track of everything - my appointments kept in my calendar, I make notes in my notes app, i've receive test results via email or on paper... it all requires a lot of organisation.

Along the way, I also realised that most existing cycle tracking apps only track natural cycles and do not account for people going through fertility treatment. So, my partner taught me the basics of vibe coding and i'm in the process of building Bodie - an inclusive fertility treatment and cycle tracking app.

With Bodie, you can keep track of your appointments, notes, medication reminders all in one place and track where you are in your treatment journey.

Apologies for the long waffle! But I wondered, are there any women in this community who are going through/have been through fertility treatment and would value something like this? Openly welcome any feedback whilst i'm in the process of building!

The waitlist is open and happy to share the website with anyone who would like to sign up :)

Hire Me: I am specialized in bringing New Customers | Grow Online Business Visibility

Hello Businesswomen

I have been generating consistent, high quality leads for startups and MSMEs for over 15 years, through organic strategies that bring inbound customers every day.

If you are a business owner and do not have enough bandwidth, I can help you find new customers without spending on ads. These are organic methods, and you can also implement them yourself.

- First step: Create your online presence with a professional, informative website wordpress website [not with any website builder] that includes at least one landing page.

Create official business pages on at least 3 social media platforms such as Facebook, Twitter, LinkedIn, YouTube, or Instagram, based on your niche. Warm them up for a month.

By doing this, you send positive signals to Google and Microsoft that you are a serious business owner, not a part timer.

- Second step: Start with basic SEO and then move to advanced SEO. SEO is slow, but it is the foundation of your business’s online success.

Submit your website to online directories. Create informative posts on social media. I repeat, informative posts, not generic ones, otherwise your content will be buried among millions of others.

- Third and final step: From here, you will start getting leads. Post regularly on social media, create YouTube Shorts, and participate in Q and A forums to interact with potential customers.

Follow these 3 steps and your business will grow.

It may sound familiar to you, but execution is what decides the outcome.

Keep in mind - There is no shortcut, hack, or overnight success formula.
All successful businesses follow this process.

These processes are time consuming. They take around 8 to 9 hours daily, 7 days a week.

If your schedule does not allow it, I am here to assist you.

I hope this helps.

Thank you.

For the girlies who wants to make over 5 figures a month and work less!

Okay girls!

Are you sick of > working for a job that underpays you?, not getting time for yourself or loved ones?, constant burn out?, feeling blocked 24/7?

Because trust me girl I’ve been there and I’m only out of that phase.

I’m now 17 years old and have started faceless digital marketing 3 months ago and have already made 3k from just using AI influencers to help market my products and offer UGC services for brands in my niche.

I spend just 1 hour a day learning and 2 hours implementing and that’s it! And I still get to make at least 300 > 500 a day or even more if more time and effort is worn into this.

Anddd I don’t have to show my face because I love my introvert era 🙃

So girls > If you are an introvert girly (just like me) and wanna earn more while doing less and getting to get your life back without worrying about your personal financial needs in a negative way?

Then girl now is your time to comment under this post your Instagram or TikTok account so I can send you girl over a message or here’s my ai influencer account > @taliahale137 on instagram 💋

Mentally exhausted from years of misogyny in my career

As it says, I work with clients on a daily basis. Lately it’s just become so apparent to me how much “extra” work I have to do simply because male clients will write me off, disregard what I say, etc.

The other women I work with experience this too.

I work in the financial sector, and am very knowledgeable of my job, one of the best on my team.

I’ve seen though how easy my male counterparts have it dealing with their assigned male clients. It’s as simple as that”here’s what you need to do” and the clients just listen.

Me and the other women it’s always some sort of push back, clients not following through, us needing to follow up constantly.

Our communication is basically the same across the board in my role-regardless of gender.

I’ve found myself so many times having to get male management involved to simply just regurgitate the information I’ve provided clients so that they are willing to accept it.

It’s becoming exhausting.

Co Workers who don’t like you

We’ve recently had a shift in positions which has landed me some where roughly in middle management. Not a boss but ive been there the longest — putting me in charge of training new coworkers and directing old ones. I feel my personality is not fit to lead — but with the sudden gaps In position I’ve transitioned best I can.

Our work flow is akin to a river, someone start on a form and I, along with 2 new hires finish them up and process them. During this process I’ve had to be more direct and ask a lot more from my team. Two co workers, one new and the other seasoned, have been giving me a bit of an attitude — ive chalked it’s up to maybe a bad day.

WRONG, it’s persistent. We’ve recently had a new girl start (pretty grateful AS I was the only one for the longest time). I’ve noticed she doesn’t get that same sour face or kurt responses. I’m never angry or demanding, but i try and be direct as they are with me since they really seem to dislike any small talk.

anyone been through this?

Any good leadership book recommendations about working on a team, to then leading the team?

I was recently promoted and now I’m leading the team I previously worked on. I am younger than some of the people on my team and I was also friends with several of them, but now I need to manage them and I’ve had a rocky start, often feeling like I don’t have their respect as a leader.

Does anyone have any good book recommendations on this topic where I can learn a few tips?!

Hi from a team that makes stone things (trying not to make this self promotion)

First post here. We're Artisan Kraft — a female lead brand studio that makes marble bathtubs, marble and cast stone fireplace mantels, and kitchen range hoods. Mostly for homes, hotels and commercial spaces. This is not meant to be a self promotion thing but new to the space sooooo this might fall under self promotion. But honestly not looking to sell anything just trying to answer questions for those that may have them.

Our studio is run by women and staffed mostly by women, something that I am very proud of.

Excited to be here and learn from everyone. Happy to answer questions about the industry (stone manufacturing is a weird, old-world world) if anyone's curious.

If I have global clients, is UK GDPR compliance enough?

I'm offering advisory services to clients across different markets including the UK and I collect basic contact information (name, job title, company, work email).

I've drafted a basic privacy notice based on UK GDPR requirements but I'm unsure if that's sufficient given that my clients come from different countries.

So my question is: Is UK GDPR compliance enough as a baseline for a freelance consultant with a global client base? Or do I need to consider additional requirements depending on where my contacts are based?

Any suggestions or have you face a similar situation? Happy to know, would be really helpful.

Women Empowered by Business (WEB) institute at Hassan Business School University of Tennessee

Hi all

My 10th grader has gotten accepted to their summer program for a week. We are based in Maryland. Is it worth to attend this program? It is free of cost and they take care of food and lodging for the high school kids. It seems like a good experience but we would have to fly out there as well.

Does anyone have experience with this program?

Thanks.

AI adoption and uneven career risk for women. How to think about careers amid growing public warnings?

I came across a recent piece discussing how AI-driven automation might disproportionately affect certain types of roles, especially where women are more represented. Public comments like these, in this case from Reese Witherspoon, tend to hit a bit closer to home for me than I’d like to admit.

What I notice is that when public figures talk about risks like this, it often amplifies fears that are already there. Not necessarily because the prediction is clearly right or wrong, but because it speaks to existing uncertainty around careers, stability, and how much control we actually have as technology moves faster than we do.

Posting this here because I’m genuinely curious how others think about this from their own business or career perspective. Do statements like these make you feel stressed, motivated, or something else entirely?

I’m a Realtor in Saskatoon. I was tired of my phone "winning" over and over again, so at 50, I decided to build an app to fix it.

Honestly, if you told me a year ago that I’d be featured in a major tech outlet like MobileSyrup, I would have laughed. I’m a Realtor, not a coder.

But for a long time, my phone has been winning over and over again. I’d look up and realize I’d lost an hour to a "scroll trance." I tried the usual app blockers, but they felt like a "time-out" for adults—frustrating and a bit shameful. I don’t want to be punished for using my phone; I just want to stay in control.

So, I decided to build a solution. I call it Paced.

How I built it (without being a "tech person"): I used Google Gemini as my strategic partner throughout the whole process. It wasn't about using AI to write code; it was about using it to bridge the gap in my own knowledge. I used it for:

  • Market analysis and marketing expertise.
  • Educating myself on tech terminology so I could actually lead a professional development team.
  • Acting as a sounding board for the roadmap and social media strategy.

The result (The "Wait vs. Walk" system): The app gives you 30 minutes of time on your "distraction" apps, then initiates a one-hour cooldown. MobileSyrup called it a "gentle touch on the shoulder." You can either wait out the timer or move your body to earn time back—every 100 steps earns you 3 minutes.

It’s been a busy couple of months, but we’re actually seeing a 69% 30-day retention rate, which is nearly 7x the industry average. It turns out people stay when they feel empowered rather than punished.

We are officially launching on Product Hunt this Saturday, April 25th. I’m mostly just excited to show that you don't need a Silicon Valley budget or a CS degree to solve your own problems.

I’m happy to chat about digital habits, the "Wait vs. Walk" philosophy, or how I used AI to bridge the gap into a new career at 50.
