Episode #683: Why Authentic Websites Work Better, feat. Ellie Miller

Ellie Miller, LCSW-C joins me in today's episode to talk about showing up authentically in your marketing and why it matters for therapists. We dig into simple, effective ways to uncover your natural writing voice—like gathering feedback from loved ones and paying attention to how you communicate casually. Ellie also shares tips for building a brand voice cheat sheet, using AI tools like ChatGPT with intention, and steering clear of the overly academic language that can create distance with potential clients. We touch on the challenges of being real online—from video presence to self-disclosure to staying grounded in your values—and wrap up with her guidance on building deeper connection and confidence through your website and beyond.
