Join us in kissing those awkward networking situations goodbye in this special guest episode featuring, Ande Lyons. 

In this episode, you'll get anything but cookie-cutter networking advice as Ande helps to reframe networking from schmoozing and dead fish handshakes to spaces of curiosity, connection, and community. 

We get into: 

• Why networking can often feel icky, transactional, boring, and scary 
• Where traditional networking advice falls flat and misses the mark
• Powerful reframes that will help you view a room full of people in a different light 
• Tips for before, during, and after the event 
• Practical approaches for various event sizes and introversion levels 
• Shifting gears from small talk to big talk 
• How to protect your energy and boundaries, and say no when you need to
• And more!
