Networking isn’t just about who you know—it’s about who they know. Every time you show up, you’re not just meeting one person—you’re tapping into their entire network. That means the more you put yourself out there, the faster the opportunities multiply. Learn how to harness the ripple effect of networking in this episode ??? ?? https://lnkd.in/gQGA5RPT

?? Different Stages = Different Struggles ?? The problems you’re facing as a newbie entrepreneur? Totally different from what someone hitting seven figures is dealing with. Bottom line, you need people around you who get where you are right now. The ones facing the same hurdles. That’s your crew! But… don’t sleep on the power of mixing it up. ?? Someone with 25 years in the game has blind spots they don’t even realize a newbie can reveal. Likewise that experienced business owner has likely been through the growing pains new businesses are facing. That’s can be SO valuable. It’s all about building a network that works at every stage of your business. ?? Want to know how to build the right circle? Listen to the full episode HERE: https://lnkd.in/gQGA5RPT

“I’ve got this” mentality can only take you so far. It’s exhausting—and it’s NOT sustainable. We weren’t meant to do this alone. You need help—and asking for it doesn’t mean you’re failing. In fact, it’s the smartest thing you can do. + why we're talking all about it HERE: https://lnkd.in/gQGA5RPT When you shift from seeing your journey as purely transactional (just you vs. the world) to understanding the value of community and support, everything changes. You start to see that having people to lean on isn’t just a luxury—it’s a necessity. ?? It’s easy to feel like you’re the only one who can do it all, but the reality is—you don’t have to. Building your business doesn’t mean doing everything yourself. It means finding the right people who can help you get where you want to go, faster, with less stress. You’re not alone. And that’s a good thing. ??

When you stop pretending everything’s perfect and get real with people, real advice comes your way. ?? But as you probably already know, It’s not always easy to be vulnerable. In Part 2 of our conversation on heart-led networking, we dive into why showing up as your true self is the game-changer you’ve been missing. ?? Stop saying “everything’s great” (it’s exhausting). Start showing up as YOU—and watch how your business changes. Catch the full episode here to learn how vulnerability can level up your business: https://lnkd.in/gQGA5RPT
