Does the idea of networking events make you cringe? You’re not alone! Many small business owners avoid networking because it feels awkward, forced, or just plain uncomfortable. But what if you’ve just been going to the wrong types of events?

In this episode of The Growth Addicts Podcast, I’m joined by Sarah Cook, founder of Come Network With Me, to chat about how to make networking fun, meaningful, and actually beneficial for your business.

I’ve personally never been a fan of networking, but after this conversation, I’m realizing that it’s not networking that’s the problem—it’s the pressure we put on it!

  • How to remove the pressure and just enjoy meeting like-minded people
