Our families know all too well the endless amounts of documentation required of us, just to get through the day let alone to plan for the future. Medication charts, daily schedules, appointment calendars there is so much to track. Our guests today get it. And what’s more they’ve created something to help!
Joel and Debbie, have three children including their 24 year old daughter Danielle, who is diagnosed with non verbal Autism. After first documenting Dani’s life in files stored on a computer, to be sure that if something happened to them, family or caregivers could step in and understand Dani’s everyday needs. Joel knew there had to be a better way. So In 2023, he and his new business partners launched the Dani Plan, and created a tool that would give caregivers an easy way to document, update, store, and share every detail of their loved one’s lives in a secure and safe environment.

While working at Image One, Joel and Debbie documented Dani’s life in word documents stored on their computer. They wanted to make sure that if something happened to them, family or caregivers could step in and understand her everyday needs and the nuances of caring for her. They found the process unstructured and tedious, and Joel knew there had to be a better way. In 2022, Joel stepped into an Advisory Role at Image One, freeing his time to build a new business. A tool that would give caregivers an easy way to document, update, store and share every detail of their loved one’s lives in a secure and safe environment. In 2023, Joel and his new business partners launched the Dani Plan.
