Exploring Life & Business with DJ DeMavera of Felt
In this founder interview, DJ DeMavera shares the personal loss that inspired Good Grief and its evolution into Felt. The conversation explores navigating grief, change, and self-doubt, and making room for reflection, movement, and human connection. At its heart is Felt’s purpose: helping people feel less alone as they find their way through what changes them.

DJ DeMavera · Founder of Good Grief, now Felt
DJ was selected to participate in Season 19 of The Blox, bringing Good Grief, the venture that later evolved into Felt, into a live-in entrepreneurship competition.
The program combines an immersive startup bootcamp with a filmed competition. Founders work through business lessons, coaching, pitches, and practical challenges alongside other entrepreneurs. Its creator describes it as the world’s largest live-in startup competition.
Why this milestone matters
Participation put the mission in front of coaches and fellow founders, with opportunities to pressure-test how it was communicated and how a sustainable business could support it. Selection marks a meaningful step in DJ’s founder journey; the deeper value is the learning, feedback, and entrepreneurial community behind the work.
This recognition relates to entrepreneurship, not clinical accreditation or an endorsement of health outcomes.
