“I asked Joanne to help with my website. She asked some very simple, direct questions. And then she listened. And then she wrote.

What came back was in my voice, saying what I’d been wanting and trying to, but not able, to articulate.

Previously, I’d been lukewarm about my website. Now I’m extremely proud of it.”
