Hey Reader,

This is the weekly announcement for The Awkward Handshake, a podcast & community all about networking that I co-host. If you want to opt-out of these podcast & networking community updates, CLICK HERE.

Stop me if you’ve heard this before (and it could be because the words came out of your mouth):
"I don’t do networking stuff because I’m an introvert."

Well guess what? Introverts can network too!

In this episode, we had Nedra Rezinas, the founder of Quiet Networking, come on as a guest. We chatted about her networking event designed specifically for introverts, the types of networking introverts excel at (looking at you, coffee dates), and why there’s nothing wrong with needing to recharge after peopling.

And if you’re an extrovert who would like to learn how to use your talents to help your introvert friends, then you’ll want to give this episode a listen too.

You’re Invited 🥳 Our First Happy Hour Networking Party

We’re also thrilled to invite you to The Awkward Handshake’s first official networking party. We're taking our parties from coffee to cocktail time!

This will be a two-hour, lightly facilitated gathering designed for real connection — not business card roulette.

Come ready to meet other 10/10 humans.
Come ready for depth.
Come ready to be present.

We’re grateful to Dovetail Cellars for hosting us — there will be light bites, and incredible wine available for purchase.

Space is intentionally limited to 50 people and we have just a handful of spots left.

If you want in, RSVP ➡️ HERE​

Still deciding? Here’s how one past attendee described our events:

If you’ve been craving better rooms… this is one of them.

See you soon,
Mary
