In this episode of Inspire + Move, Matt and I dive into one of our favorite topics: networking! We talk about why it's not just about showing up with a stack of business cards or throwing your name into a fishbowl at a conference. We’re breaking down what it really means to build, nurture, and show up for your network from a place of authenticity, service, and longevity. We’re unpacking the power of the long game, how the smallest acts of service and overdelivery can turn into the biggest career wins, and why genuine connection always beats transactional contact.

Tune in to hear more about:

• Why a network built on trust and authenticity is your most powerful long-term asset.
• The difference between collecting contacts and building meaningful relationships that actually support your goals.
• How to over-deliver in a way that creates real impact, without expecting anything in return.
• Personal stories from Matt’s career that prove the power of planting seeds and nurturing them over time.
• Why we’re bringing back our “Get in the Room One Day Mastermind”, and how being in the right room can change the trajectory of your life and business.

Whether you’re a business owner, creative, or just someone who values real relationships, we hope this will challenge you to look at your own network with fresh eyes, and start thinking like a connector! We’d love to hear what landed with you! DM us @AlliArruda or @Matt_Arruda and let’s keep the conversation going!
