Each week, it is my mission to introduce you to guests who inspire me personally and who I know can bring value to you that will be the fuel to ignite change in your life. Today, I have the distinct pleasure to do just that with a guest who I've known for, literally, as long as I can remember. This guest is the networking wizard, Ryan Mayer. Ryan takes the term "people person" to the next level. I've witnessed him light up a room on multiple occasions with his passion, incredible public speaking skills, and charisma that just won't quit. And lucky for me, Ryan isn't just a friend, but we're bound by blood as well since he's my first cousin. And for those of you who have listened to this show for a while, yes, he's 'that' cousin who I have mentioned in multiple episodes. In this coffee shop conversation with Ryan, we chat about networking tips and tricks, self-optimization secrets, and acquiring more of the one asset that can't be taken away from you - knowledge. Check out the links below to see where you connect with Ryan, which I highly encourage doing. I hope you enjoy this chat with Ryan Mayer. I'd love to hear from you in the comment section below.
