31: How to Network (Without Being A Stalker!!) It's Time to Make Power Moves, with Lauren 'The Career Contessa' McGoodwin & Latesha Byrd

By The Black Effect and iHeartPodcasts

Do you feel socially awkward when it comes to networking? Get all tongue-tied, and you're not sure what to say, or even who to say it to? Well, get it, networking is HARD AF (like why!!), it can often feel forced, inauthentic, and sometimes just a tad bit slimy. But, it doesn't have to be that way. 


Today's episode is all about networking the right way!! Zuri is talking with another expert panel featuring two awesome women -- Career Coach Latesha Byrd and the Career Contessa, Lauren McGoodwin! We're diving into how to effectively use LinkedIn for networking, answer the hotly debated question of 'is it ever okay to slide in the DMs of your wishlist employer?', how to build authentic relationships and start those organic conversations, and finally how to make power moves in a male-dominated industry! 


ICYMI -- we're hosting ANOTHER giveaway! That's right, Z is personally gifting a $100 Amazon gift card -- all the deets are listed in the episode + linked on hothappymess.com -- the giveaway closes July 19th! So what are you waiting for? Go enter NOW, and may the odds be forever in your favor! :)
