  Thanks Nancy! I’m honored.

Kind Words & Kudos

Tea helped me find my tune! I had so much fun going through the exercises in the first few modules. [They] let me get to know myself and articulate my values and beliefs. The Word Chef Secret Sauce Workshop helped me tell my story and find a theme to brand my business in a way that is truly me. I’d be still lost and trying to figure out that something special if Tea hadn’t coached me through my big “aha” moment during our sessions. A big “thank you” to Tea for offering her Secret Sauce workshop!Rachel Rubin

I was dreading working on my website. I was never happy with the generic site that I had, but the thought of revamping and revising it made me uneasy. Then I met Tea. My experience working with Tea on my new website and marketing copy has been nothing short of incredible. Not only did she create a website that looks like a million bucks (for nowhere near what other developers wanted to charge me), she also taught me valuable writing and marketing skills that took my website copy from generic to …Kelli Proia

I have taken many marketing classes over the last few years and they were all great. The problem was I couldn’t take much action on all that I learned. I was missing some critical information that I needed before I could market myself and my business at all. I could not for the life of me find the words to express my brilliance (something we all have.) What made me unique, and how on earth could I find ideal clients without knowing? How could I explain, in words, my special talents? And then it …Nancy Meadows
