"Joel, I wanted to tell you how much our conversation helped me. Honestly, I was drowning and feeling very much incompetent to handle the work ahead. The things you shared with me changed my outlook. I have heard so many people tell me why it won't work. I know inside myself (selves if you ask my husband) it's going to. It has to. Now I know that if it gets dark again, which I know it will, I have a lifeline and you have no idea what that means as I have been doing this alone. Besides for that, your after work (?) 🧐 was awesome and I am so excited to dig in to them first thing in the morning. Thank you so much again, I look forward to becoming one of the stories of success you can share and helping others find the same thing myself. Have a great evening."
