Joani intentionally makes friends from all walks of life where ever she goes. Once a week, in an effort to pay-it-forward, Joani chooses a person or business via Twitter and asks "What can I do for you?!" (WCIDFY?) and does what she can to help for the entire day. From promoting a product or business or just wishing a loved one a happy birthday via Twitter, her facebook fan page and her website. It was once requested that she call a person's mother to wish her a happy birthday. Joan took it a step further and had her 5 year old son make the call, "Hello, My name is Jackson and I am 5 yrs. old. I just wanted to commit an act of kindness and wish you a happy birthday from your son John". Joani has even been known to make flyers and place them locally on windsheilds wherever she goes that day out of her love for helping others. "Nothing puts a smile on my face faster than putting a smile on someone elses. I'm extremely passionate about making others happy and feel good about life and what they have. It makes me feel so good...kind of selfish, really." - Joani Plenty Joani's spare time is spent blogging, horseback riding, designing graphics, teaching her children to perform random acts of kindess or in the mirror with her hair brush microphone.
