Networking.

We know there’s a gray area, but a lot of times it seems like it’s black and white. You either like it or not.

This week's question was, “Networking for introverts or for those whose work drains all of their social energy. Is one’s network really as powerful as biz influencers say? How to make the small connections when you’re drained out.”

If you haven’t noticed, Callie is an introvert, and Amanda is an extrovert. Which was fun to talk about these answers from both perspectives.

Key Takeaways:

• More is not always better because those close relationships are so powerful
• For those who need to recharge more often, find the time to do it…even just 10 minutes
• Confidence is a big part of this…you have to be confident to ask for what you need!

We’d love to hear your thoughts on this topic and if you’re coming from the lens of an extrovert or introvert!

A doozy of a question for us on this week's episode!

"How do you build generational wealth in your business?"

And because we know our lane, we brought in expert advice! Mindy McCubbin is a Certified Financial Planner and the founder of Truman Wealth Advisors. When we asked Mindy this question, she recommended the book, “Every Family’s Business” by Thomas Williams Deans, as one of their services is exit planning, and this is the blueprint they use.

And you'd be correct in thinking...that's all they shared?

No, friends.

This topic brought up:

• - thoughts on passing down money to kids
• - how money is (unfortunately) not a common topic
• - how do we talk about and teach our kids about money to help them make decisions later?

I don't think this will be our last episode on money, so if you have more questions or are interested, please share them in our Google form or DM Amanda on IG!

This week, we're digging into hiring!

A write-in, "Hiring! What's the secret sauce? Can you all dive deep into the ever-so-slightly painful process of 'hiring' - from where to post, to red flags (this has been a hard one for me!), to balancing your gut with hard and objective strategy."

We'll admit we are not HR, and we're not talent scouts. We dive deep into the complexities of the hiring process, sharing personal experience and practical tips.

A book recommendation is The E-Myth Revisited, and the banana bread story came from the wonderful Brandi Spurling with Spree Culture Co on her blog, which you can find here!

Key takeaways:

• Knowing your company's mission and vision will create alignment right off the bat
• While being objective is essential, don't ignore the gut feelings you get
• Don't be afraid to always be accepting applications, so you can keep the hiring door open

Have any hiring tips you've found helpful? We'd love for you to share in the comments below!
