Author and CEO Susan McPherson chats about how to network when you hate networking; her book, THE LOST ART OF CONNECTING; and how to move beyond transactional networking and build real, useful professional relationships that matter. Plus: Setting boundaries, breaking up conventional power dynamics, two-way mentorship, and how (and why) we can all become better listeners. A quick note about this episode: Jen did the interview alone because I couldn’t make it, but there’s an intro with both of us, as there always is, and Susan really provides a wealth of useful and empowering information.

I follow Jenn on Instagram and she is gorgeous and, even better, vivacious. She doesn’t need anything––particularly not an icky dermatologist! Also enjoyed the main part of the podcast. Even though I don’t need to network, there was so much to take away from Susan McPherson no matter where you are on the business/work/life spectrum.
Loved Susan! A breath of fresh air!
Have yet to listen all the way through, but had a huge chuckle and can relate to the dermatologist slippery slope. My derm has a PA who is “our” age and is awesome at keeping it real. I do want to hear how Jenn feels when everything has settled in, but I think she is just gorgeous and YOUNG and can save all that $$ next time. Set a small budget and see where that will take you.
