In this episode, we are going back to the professional realm to talk about one of my favorite executive coaching subjects, networking. For anyone trying to get ahead in life but who believes they are not a great networker, listen in as I reveal the best ways to muster up the energy and motivation to network and make authentic connections that will serve you in life and business. Plus, I answer questions from callers, and Kristy Hurt tells a story about how she has created a powerhouse network upon which she founded her dream business at the end of the show.
