Thank you so much Shannon!! I appreciate you so much! I am so grateful that you were doing what you do and who you are when I came across you in 2015. I don't know what I would have done with out you, seriously! It's because of you I even had a business...a website, being able to share content, sell programs, take payments etc. You've been my go-to for all website stuff!

I'm going to have to stop listening to your podcasts because every time I listen I get more amazing ideas and I just can't stop! 😉
I want you to know just how inspired I am by you and your guest speakers. I can't believe the difference in my engagement and energy levels since starting down this blogging path. And I love your saying of doing something you don't need a vacation from! Thank you so much for the inspiration you give out.

I am so glad I signed up for this. No, I will not finish in 5 days but I have been going at it and working your program. Even though I was already set up going through it with fresh new eyes is just so helpful. I am at the section after we just downloaded the plugins you suggested.
I do plan on paying it forward and using any of you affiliate links when the time comes to do so.
Thank you for this.

I love the challenge do far! I've gotten past some serious hurdles already. Thank you, thank you, thank you! I've actually had a few domains and web hosting since last November, but could never figure out the next step. Everything seemed so intimidating. I love the step by step instructions and the "yea, don't worry about all of this" and "yes, it's supposed to look weird, keep going". I joined a tech mentorship program last year, and still haven't done anything with my site! Now, I'm going to graduate in a month and need a site ASAP! People have been asking about my services and "where to find me" and with this challenge, I feel like I'm finally getting somewhere, and that's just after day 1!! Your story really resonates with me as well. I'm ready to cut the cord from my J-O-B!

I have to say, this is AMAZING! It takes a ton of courage to show people this intimate stuff and for someone just starting out still trying to figure out realistic expectations- both earning and costs, this is invaluable!! You have definitely earned a loyal reader.

I loved your 5 day course and your overall approach! If you ever need a good testimonial, I’ll write you one! You helped me build my small law firm website (talentlegalpad.com) from scratch and I have received many compliments (and new clients and confidence) from this. Now to work on the scalable part ... anyway, thanks for what you do. I happily purchased your companion books and look forward to your offerings. I appreciate your transparency and the selling that just feels clean and honest.
You’re modeling another way in the world and I just wanted to drop you a quick note to let you know it’s working! I’ve already referred several people to your course. Thanks again!
