Yes—but the language needs to change.

Initially our plan was to vet each advisor before allowing them to offer sessions. That said, we didn’t want to be the arbiters of who has good feedback to share.

So, we opened up the option to be an advisor, to everyone. And what we’re seeing, in doing so, is sort of interesting. Seems like some of the folks I thought wouldn’t get any requests for sessions are. (So, probably good that we don’t get in the way of these folks.)

That said, this approach means that we need to update the descriptions used on the site—because the term expert is not always accurate, and can be difficult to quantify. In the weeks to come, this word will be removed from the site.
