She brings a unique perspective blending together logic, intuition, creativity, and analysis.<\/p>\n<p>Lorraine left behind her role as a business system analyst in the corporate world to work as a consultant, and eventually found herself on an unexpected detour to becoming a holistic practitioner. In the early 2000s, she was drawn back to the world of IT with SEO, websites and online marketing. Not wanting to be part of the less-than-white-hat ways she saw it being used, Lorraine moved on to become a life coach.<\/p>\n<p>But SEO wouldn\u2019t leave Lorraine alone. In early 2017, she was drawn back into the world of helping people raise their visibility after connecting with those who approached SEO as a vehicle for good, and creating positive experiences &#8211; the way she knew it should be done.<\/p>\n<p>Where most people might see Lorraine&#8217;s work as an SEO strategist and life coach being an odd pairing, she views them as complementary skills aligned in the same direction. Both disciplines serve in helping you to understand yourself and your work more clearly, put your best confident self forward, and being found so you can bring your work to the world.<\/p>\n<p>Connect with Lorraine at these places around the web:<br \/>\nWebsite:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.trispherefusion.com\/\">https:\/\/www.trispherefusion.com\/<\/a><br \/>\nTwitter:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/lorraineewatson\">@LorraineEWatson<\/a><br \/>\nLinkedIn:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.linkedin.com\/in\/lorrainewatson311\/\">LorraineWatson311<\/a><br \/>\nFacebook:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/lorraine.watson.311\">Lorraine.Watson.311<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>A self-professed \u201cleft-brained creative big picture idea\u201d type (and crazy for cats), Lorraine\u2019s insatiable curiosity of life leads her to explore, question and push beyond the box.
