Harvest TV Interview – A whirlwind week!

Let me just say, these past few weeks have been an incredible whirlwind! I flew out of Nashville yesterday and headed to South Bend, Indiana for the Harvest TV show this morning.

Marketing – Next Time

If you’ve found yourself here from Rachelle Gardner’s blog—Welcome! I’m one of Rachelle’s many clients. She signed me on in 2009. And, to be quite honest, I’m her favorite. Sure, she’s never said those words out loud, but I can tell by the subtle way she begins our phone calls, "Hi Joanne. How are you doing today?" The special way she ends her … [Read more...]

Focus on the Family Interview

Our family was driving somewhere along the freeway in Kansas when I picked up messages from my phone. "Hi Joanne, it's Kathi. Give me a call when you get a chance." Kathi sounded a little excited about something, in a good way. So, I patiently waited until my phone had at least two-bars and gave her a call back. The good news she wanted to … [Read more...]

A First For Me

Continue earnestly in prayer, being vigilant in it with thanksgiving. Colossians 4:2 As a first time mom, there wasn’t anywhere I went without words of been-there-done-that-wisdom showered on me.
