Grand Rapids, MI, July 17, 2026 --(PR.com)-- Childress Ink is celebrating the launch of Stumble, an innovative new social wellness platform created to help people navigate one of life's most difficult transitions: heartbreak, loneliness, and the journey toward healing.

Created by entrepreneur Joe Martin, co-founder and CEO of Stumble, the platform was built to fill the space between traditional therapy and dating apps—offering a supportive environment where users can rebuild through community, accountability, shared experiences, and meaningful connection. The app combines guided resources, community features, optional anonymity, journaling tools, and opportunities for both online and real-world connection, all designed to help users move forward at their own pace.

Martin describes Stumble as "the space in between," a place where people can find encouragement, belonging, and hope during seasons of grief, loss, and major life transitions.

The hardest moments don't happen on a schedule. Stumble is always there — free and anonymous.

"One of the things that immediately stood out to me about Stumble is that it isn't simply another app—it was intentionally designed around people," said Kim Childress, founder of Childress Ink. "Over the past several years, I've watched friends, family members, and colleagues experience heartbreaking loss and relationship struggles. Like so many people, I've also navigated difficult seasons in my own life. Joe has created something that encourages healing through community, compassion, and authentic human connection. It's a mission I'm proud to support."

Clear your mind. Feel supported. Move forward.

Childress noted that she originally downloaded the app to support Martin's but has continued using it personally. "I've found it to be a helpful way for helping maintain my own emotional well-being while navigating anxiety, depression, and the everyday challenges life brings. It's also anonymous."

Longtime executive and Joe Martin’s Literary Agent Diana Vilic added, "Joe possesses a rare combination of visionary thinking and genuine empathy. Throughout the creative process, his focus has remained on serving people first. Stumble reflects both his entrepreneurial leadership and his commitment to building technology that can positively impact lives."
