Joined by co-host Mike Knox and an incredible group of individuals, we skip the standard networking advice and discuss the reality of navigating this industry. We break down the mechanics of advocacy, the power of authentic storytelling, and exactly how to move past transactional networking to build a true foundation of care in gaming spaces.
