Recently during a session with a client, I was sharing with them that by the time we finish our session, there will be someone that passes by the office who has the dream industry they are interested in. Our world is small. Our networks should be large.

Sometimes, building connections isn’t about big moves…it’s about small, thoughtful nudges. Think of it as your next opportunity might already be in your circle, you just haven’t reached out yet. Also, keep in mind that networking doesn’t have to feel forced. A gentle nudge, a message, a coffee chat, a follow-up, can be the spark that builds momentum and opens new doors. This gives you an opportunity to reconnect, check in, or introduce yourself in a way that feels authentic and strategic.

Here’s how to approach the gentle nudge. Reach out to one contact this week. Consider congratulating them, asking a question, or offering a resource.

Our office can support you in this process. Feel free to reach out to us!
