Networking for People Who
Hate Networking

Hate small talk? Feel like networking is fake and exhausting?

Same. As an autistic, ADHD entrepreneur, I’ve learned to make networking work for me, no fake smiles, no cringe icebreakers.

What this talk covers:

• What “valuable networking” actually means (hint: being useful, not popular)
• Practical tactics for introverts, neurodivergent folks, and people who just hate networking
• “Prep your network” before events so you don’t have to rely on random small talk
• Leave an event with real connections (and zero business-card shame)
• Questions + conversation openers that don’t feel salesy/awkward
