Tending the chair
The scroll before you sleep and the mirror before you leave the house. A friend's engagement, someone's launch, a body that photographs the way yours doesn't. By my age they had the flat, the title, the wedding. It is not vanity and it is not weakness; it is arithmetic you never agreed to do, running all day on a screen you carry everywhere. Hearth is a chair and one Keeper (a trained peer companion, the same person every time) who knows your actual life, not your feed.
If this sounds like you
No streaks. No optimisation. Just a Keeper, a chair, and however long the conversation needs to be.
A weekly or biweekly Sit (a 35–60 minute video or audio call) with the same Keeper, who knows what your week actually held, not what it looked like.
A Long Talk thread for the 1am scroll that turned on you. Write it as it happens. A reply within 24 hours, from a person.
A Friday Reflection from your Keeper: the week you actually lived, witnessed by someone who was paying attention to the real one.
If food, weight, or exercise has taken on a clinical shape, your Keeper says so plainly and walks you to The Bridge (a vetted therapist matched by hand), and to specialist care, by name.
What Hearth isn’t
Hearth is not body-image therapy and not an eating-disorder service. If eating, weight, or the mirror has become something with a clinical edge, that deserves real treatment, and we will help you find it rather than sit beside it. What we hold is the everyday arithmetic: the scroll, the shame, the invisible cohort, and the slow work of wanting your own life again.
We hand-match Keepers to members within 72 hours. This is the kind of Keeper we’d typically pair with someone bringing what you’re bringing.
Priya is one very honest voice about the gap between how lives look and how they feel. She will not tell you to delete the app. She will help you stop grading yourself with someone else's ruler.

“I muted half my feed and still did the maths every night: her flat, his salary, their wedding. Priya never gave me a quote about comparison. She asked what I actually wanted. It took me three weeks to answer honestly. That answer changed my year.”
