In Riya's words
I spent years working in HR before I realised I was spending more time helping colleagues through hard moments than anything else. That pivot changed everything. I don't believe in quick fixes or silver linings. I believe in sitting with what's actually there — as long as it takes. I'm best with people who are willing to be a little honest with themselves, even when it's uncomfortable.

How we vet our listeners
Riya went through Confide's listener selection process — which we designed to be thorough. We turn away more than 80% of applicants.
What we look for: lived experience relevant to what users bring, the ability to sit with discomfort without rushing to fix it, and a genuine reason for doing this work. We don't accept people who just want a side income.
Every listener is supervised and goes through ongoing check-ins. If something isn't working, we hear about it fast.
