As we head into Thanksgiving week, there’s no better time to pause and appreciate the business relationships that make our work meaningful. Whether you call them your business besties, referral partners, or the people who cheer you on behind the scenes, these connections deserve intentional care — not just during the holidays, but all year long.

In this solo episode, Faithann shares six practical ways (plus a bonus!) to nurture the relationships that already support you, refer to you, and make your business better. These are simple, thoughtful habits that deepen trust, strengthen rapport, and remind people that you see them — and value them.

If you’ve been focused on growing your network, this episode is a refreshing reminder:
Sometimes the greatest opportunities come from the relationships you already have.

What You’ll Learn in This Episode 1. Why nurturing existing relationships matters

Faithann explains why the people already in your ecosystem — the supportive ones, the collaborative ones, the soul-feeding ones — should never be taken for granted. These relationships deserve ongoing attention.

2. The simplest relationship-builder of all: follow up on referrals

Nothing communicates gratitude and professionalism more than following up quickly and personally when someone sends you an opportunity.

3. How to care for people even when you can’t attend their events

A quick check-in (“How did it go?”) can mean the world to someone hosting or organizing an event you had to miss.

4. The underrated power of “I was just thinking of you”

A small message at the right time deepens bonds and reconnects you with people you care about.

5. The question that feels like a hug: “How can I support you in your business right now?”

Faithann shares why this question nourishes long-term partnerships and how to use it with both new and established connections.

6. How learning someone’s “best day” unlocks ways to serve them better

Faithann shares a personal story about her daughter — and how understanding someone’s best day helps you recreate the essence of what matters most to them.

7. Duplicate what made you feel good

From a recent networking moment, Faithann shares a tiny phrase that lit her up — and how to use that insight to encourage others.

Bonus: Host a three-way lunch (or coffee)

A simple, meaningful way to introduce two people who don’t know each other — and expand opportunities for everyone involved.

A Thanksgiving Reminder

As you gather with family, friends, or your holiday tables this week, take a moment to appreciate the business people who’ve walked alongside you this year. A message, a check-in, or a thoughtful introduction might be the very thing that strengthens that relationship for years to come.
