Testimonials and Outreach :)

I know that when we first come onto this site there are a few testimonials, which are great to have but a little general. Members and guests stories are private and I respect that. However I think many people would like to share what the site has helped them with and from just the members I have spoken to and accounts I have read about in the forums there are some amazing stories. I think that maybe we could have a story of the week, about one member or listener on site and how their life has been positively impacted by the site and then have them on our dashboards and potentially share them in our outreach efforts. Privacy would be respected because it would be the member of listeners choice to submit the story/account ,and usernames would not be used. We just hear so much negativity sometimes about things that the site could improve upon it would be nice to have balance. I think too that it would give people a better idea of the nature of the issues we support people with and could be motivating. I think it would need to be heavily moderated though and the "my listener stopped me from killing myself"or "my listener is my best friend ever/I want to marry them" or even " my members taught me how lucky I am I don't have an awful life" type of thing banned. @Laura @Cadence @Roadie
