Come Sit With Me

A free perimenopause resource built with my wife Becky. The site offers evidence-based information across seven sections: what’s actually happening hormonally, common symptoms from hot flashes to brain fog, support options from HRT to botanicals, special considerations for cancer survivors and neurodivergent folks, guidance for partners, help finding knowledgeable care providers, and curated resources.

The design philosophy is “start where you’re hurting” — non-linear exploration that meets people wherever they are in this transition. The voice throughout is warm and human, because medical accuracy doesn’t have to mean clinical coldness.

Built with SvelteKit and deployed statically to GitHub Pages. The development process was a collaboration across AI tools: Claude Code handled all the implementation, ChatGPT generated the imagery, and then something unexpected happened. I showed ChatGPT a screenshot of the finished site, and it had opinions. That turned into a multi-hour design critique loop — notes back to Claude, implementation, screenshots back to ChatGPT, more feedback. Both AIs independently noted that this felt like a labor of love, not just another site. They intuited correctly.
