Culture Speak - It Matters
- Valentina Ring, London Wedding Planner -
Vaishali was absolutely phenomenal! She took the time to understand my brand and made such insightful, useful suggestions on how to be more inclusive and welcoming to a wider audience - many of which I was able to implement straight away! As a small business owner, it really means a lot to me to be proud of my messaging, and having Vaishali's support has helped so much with this. She hits the perfect balance between expert professionalism and friendly approachability, and I felt so comfortable working with her to elevate the cultural sensitivity of my brand.
Highly recommended!
