A Hater's Guide to Networking

from Joy of Missing Out (JOMO)

Today is about all networking, introversion, power dynamics, and how relationships actually form in professional spaces - especially when you *hate* networking, but know it matters. Both Eric and I have wildly different personalities navigating the same high-power ecosystems, from Cannes Lions to Vidcon, and we get into what it really feels like to move through rooms full of important people, big egos, and invisible social rules.We talk about:✨ how to exist in elite spaces without burning out✨ introvert exhaustion & social hangovers✨ imposter syndrome in rooms you “don’t belong” in✨ the cringe of self-promotion✨ and the tension between being really good at what you do… and being seen for itIf networking has ever made you feel awkward, small, or like you’re playing a game you never learned the rules to - you’re not alone.Sometimes we walk into rooms that weren’t built for us.But we still have to decide how we show up anyway. 💌𝙏𝙃𝙀 𝙅𝙊𝙈𝙊 𝙃𝙊𝙎𝙏𝙎 🎙️𝗘𝗿𝗶𝗰 𝗪𝗲𝗶 - IG: https://www.instagram.com/erictwayco-founder of Karat Financial, helping creators with finances𝗖𝗵𝗹𝗼𝗲 𝗦𝗵𝗶𝗵 - IG: https://www.instagram.com/chloe.shih/tech pm turned creator making videos on career, personal growth, and life in your 20s/30s.
