We’ve all heard the phrase, “it’s not what you know, it’s who you know.” This phrase rings true in all areas of life, including motherhood. Networking allows us to build strong interpersonal relationships that lead to friendships, professional connections, and trusted partners to look out for our kids when we can’t be with them. In this episode, we’re sharing our top networking tips and our personal philosophy on sharing the gift of connection.

Some key takeaways from this episode include:
Networking is all about connection, and it’s a skill you can build over time. Ask people their names (and remember them!), get their birthday to set up a recurring checkpoint with them on that day, ask about their families, and look for things you have in common.
As working women and mothers, it’s crucial for us to have people in our circle that we trust to help us and guide us when we need it, and who know we will absolutely help them as well.
We should not gatekeep our connections and relationships. Don’t hide the people and opportunities that you value, and proudly and openly share them with others.
