THE LIGHTNING LAUNCH
Day Rips
An elevated brand and Shopify experience designed to make adventure feel easy, social, and worth booking.
Overview
A Toronto-based wellness and adventure brand offering curated day trips that make it easier for people to get outside, reset, and connect.
The goal for Day Rips was to create a brand and website that felt elevated, grounded, and easy to trust, while clearly communicating what it is, what makes it different, and how to book.
The Challenge
Day Rips had a strong concept and a clear emotional pull, but needed a digital presence that could fully bring the idea to life. The challenge was to create a website and brand system that captured the feeling behind the experience while also making the offer easy to understand and easy to book.
The website needed to:
-
Clearly explain what a Day Rip is and who it's for
-
Balance adventure, wellness, and social connection without feeling overly corporate or overly "retreat"
-
Build trust through strong visuals, thoughtful flow, and clear messaging
-
Support bookings through a simple, intuitive Shopify experience
-
Make trip offerings feel exciting, organized, and worth committing to
The Approach
This project blended brand direction, UX strategy, and Shopify implementation to shape a full customer experience from first impression to booking.
The approach focused on three key areas:
1. Clarifying the offer
Since Day Rips is a newer concept for many people, the website needed to quickly answer: What is this? Who is it for? Why would I book?
2. Designing for feeling and trust
The brand had to feel adventurous and grounding, social and elevated, with a visual direction that felt human, editorial, and experience-led.
The site was built to reduce friction with clear navigation, product-based trip listings, intuitive calls to action, and a checkout flow tailored to the exprience.
3. Making booking feel easy

Overview
Maida is a transformational coach and healer whose website no longer reflected her evolving services and authentic brand. Faced with outdated design and confusing messaging, she needed a digital presence that truly resonated with her vision and business goals.
Through a rapid, strategic “Lightning Launch,” I redesigned her Squarespace site to be bold, clear, and conversion-focused. This case study details how a cohesive blend of UX, UI, and strategic content not only refreshed her brand but also created an engaging, high-performing online experience.
Maida’s old website didn’t reflect the bold, confident, and grounded energy of her brand.
Her services—coaching, energy healing, certifications, and corporate wellness—were buried in unclear layouts and scattered messaging.
Navigation was clunky, the content lacked flow, and it wasn’t guiding users toward action.
She needed a site that not only looked good, but worked—supporting her growth and helping her attract aligned clients with ease.
"Go look at my website—Deema is that good. She took everything I envisioned and brought it to life in a way that felt effortless. From start to finish, her professionalism, communication, and attention to detail were unmatched. It truly felt like she stepped into my brain and delivered more than I could’ve imagined. I've worked with many others before, but this time, I feel seen. My website feels aligned, authentic, and fully me. 10/10 recommend!"
Maida C.
