Entrepreneurship is a game of extremes, the highest highs, the lowest lows, and everything in between. But what if the biggest unlock to success isn’t another strategy, funnel, or funding round… but the way you connect with people?
In this Season 16 episode of BizNinja Entrepreneur Radio, Tyler Jorgenson sits down with serial entrepreneur, investor, and master connector Garrett Dunham to unpack why proximity, generosity, and intentional networking can create exponential opportunities, often when you least expect them.
Garrett Dunham has built startups, hosted hackathons, worked in venture capital, advised founders, and now leads Hey, Lois, a platform designed to help people make meaningful, human-centered connections at scale.
In this conversation, Garrett shares his unconventional entrepreneurial journe, from a childhood dream of inventing a remote-controlled vacuum to hanging out with Richard Branson on Necker Island, all powered by one core philosophy: radical abundance.
Tyler and Garrett explore why most people misunderstand networking, why chasing quantity without depth leads nowhere, and how focusing on helping others can unlock massive, compounding returns. They also dive into how AI can support—not replace—human relationships, and why generosity isn’t just good ethics, it’s good business.
