Ever had a conversation go so badly that you replay it in your head for days? In this episode, I'm sharing my most awkward networking moment yet: approaching a successful movie producer and completely fumbling the interaction. From forgetting everything I planned to say to asking cringe-worthy questions, this is a masterclass in what NOT to do when introducing yourself to someone successful.

But here's the thing: awkward moments are still better than never trying at all. I break down why I'm glad I went for it, what I learned about pitching yourself on the spot, and how to build confidence when approaching people out of your league. Whether you're navigating networking events, professional conferences, or just want to get better at introducing yourself, this episode covers the uncomfortable truth about making connections in your 20s.

I share how to prepare better introductions, what to say when you meet someone influential, and why embarrassing yourself is actually part of the process. Plus, I talk through practical tips for following up after awkward interactions and turning nervous energy into action.

Topics I cover:

• Networking strategies for guys in their 20s
• How to introduce yourself to successful people
• Overcoming social anxiety at professional events
• Career development and making meaningful connections
• Learning from awkward social moments
• Building confidence in uncomfortable situations
