In this episode of The Visibility Standard, I'm joined by Baily Hancock—host of "Seeking the Overlap" and self-proclaimed connection strategist—for a deep dive into what it actually takes to build community that holds you through life's ups and downs.

We explore how to move beyond transactional relationships and create the kind of meaningful connections that become your foundation when everything else feels uncertain.

We dive into:
🤝 Baily's transformation from solo achiever to intentional community curator
💬 Creating relationships rooted in genuine mutual support, not just convenience or networking
💔 Staying connected through grief, parenting struggles, and unexpected life challenges
✨ Why choosing authenticity over perfect optics creates stronger, more lasting bonds
📍 Practical strategies for finding your people, even when you feel socially awkward or life feels chaotic
🌱 Building community that supports your growth instead of just your success
💡 The difference between networking for advancement and connecting for genuine support

This episode is for anyone who's tired of feeling lonely in crowded rooms, entrepreneurs craving deeper professional relationships, and humans ready to build the kind of community that sees and supports the real you.

Whether you're starting over in a new city, navigating major life transitions, or just exhausted by shallow professional connections, this conversation offers a roadmap for creating relationships that actually matter.
