@KristinHelps

Thank you so much for your entry. I like how you mentioned your other tasks on 7 Cups apart from listening.
One feedback I have is that you could also see your job as a part of your expertise or authority as it has to do with writing, so you must have good practice with writing.

A well-written Paragraph-form Biography with perfectly highlighted EAT points.

Well written , keep it up

Nice biography!

E- much listening experience at 7cups

A- Leadership roles

T-active listening and fields of interests

@blissart Clear demonstration of EAT. Your bio is concise and to the point. I think it would be better if it were "calmer, more understanding,..." though, or "calm, understanding,...".

@FinleyTews

Thanks for pointing out , i feel so too now

@blissart

well written and articulated ! :)

@blissart You did really well.

@blissart amazing bio, well done!

Hai Anh Nguyen is a queer mental health and LGBTQ+ advocate, verified listener and intern graduate with honors on 7 Cups of Tea. They started their listening journey in 2017 with lived experience with grief and supporting loved ones with various mental disorders, including DID and psychosis. They aspire to be a good ally for members of marginalized groups, and to make others on 7 Cups feel safe and heard.

- Expertise: lived experience with grief, queerness and mental health support, knowledge on mental disorders and LGBTQ+ identities

- Authority: listening and interning experience

- Trust: willingness to learn, supportive spirit

@FinleyTews

Strength: concise and warm, makes reader felt understood and welcomed

Can be improved: the mention of "lived experience with grief" has an ambiguous meaning (i.e. did you help people going through it or did you experience it yourself?); acronyms such as DID can be explained

@FinleyTews Nice job.

@FinleyTews

Great biography!

@FinleyTews

Concise and straight to the point. Mentions all the EAT points well.

@FinleyTews It contains all the EAT points. Well done!

@11820Read

@11820Read I really enjoyed how you wrote about your own struggles to show expertise!

@11820Read Nice job.

But other wise nice job.

@11820Read

I like the way you use your life journey ..graduating phase and penning down in article which aim to help other. that cover ETA.
