Description
Networking doesn’t have to feel like business speed dating.
In the latest episode of the Soapbox podcast, I’m chatting with Emma Ahlert, founder of Elsie – a networking space for people working in female and sexual health that actually feels good to be in.
We talk about:
• Making friends before making sales
• Why some rooms feel instantly wrong (AI + golf, anyone?)
• Online communities that don’t drain your soul
• And building something ethically, without fear-based messaging
If networking has ever made you want to fake a phone call and leave early, this episode might change how you think about it.
