Anti-Cringe Networking: Connection Without the Ick

Networking doesn't have to feel cringe, fake, or like you're bothering someone.

Whether you're navigating a layoff, thinking about your next move, or just trying to find community—this conversation is for you!

Join Betty Chan, Authenticity Coach for Life and Business, and Patti Dayleg, Leadership Coach and Consultant for Social Change, for a nuanced talk about how to approach networking from a heart-led, non-transactional place. We’ll share how we’ve learned to connect with others in ways that feel natural, generous, and grounded.

Dive in with us:

  • Understand your hesitations around networking

  • How to make networking feel human, not awkward

  • What to say when you don’t want to sound needy or performative

This is for anyone who wants to connect more genuinely, whether you're job-hunting, building something new, or just figuring out what's next. Create authentic connections that move forward with you.
