If you enjoyed this podcast, we'd love to hear from you!
In this bonus episode, Julia and Valerie talk openly about what networking is really about. It’s not the awkward card-swapping kind, but the kind that leads to real relationships, unexpected opportunities and even co-hosting a podcast.
From the cringe of speed networking to the value of showing up consistently, they explore why some connections last 15 years while others fade away. Valerie shares her approach to staying curious, being present and following up in a way that feels natural rather than strategic. Julia reflects on how her own view has evolved and why networking no longer feels performative.
If you’ve ever felt uncomfortable in a room full of strangers or unsure how to re-engage with your network, this conversation is for you. Practical, honest and full of warm insight, it’s a reminder that the best connections often begin with a simple conversation.
