Have you ever felt like you just couldn’t find your people?

Maybe you’ve felt lost and unsure of where to start and how to navigate networking conversations.  

Or maybe you get caught up in self-doubt and procrastination–even though you know it’d be great to connect with more values-aligned, like-minded people.

You’re not alone.

The truth is that we are naturally social creatures. We NEED to network to…

  • Find the next company that will value us 

  • Grow our business with ideal clients

  • Advance our careers and leadership

That’s why we created Find Your People: A Networking Guide. To teach you the techniques that make networking easier. The strategies that help women of color and nonbinary people of color propel their careers forward. The steps to take so that you can be you with confidence and ease–and find those valuable connections.

“For so long I thought I was not good at networking. Now I’m realizing that I didn’t really know how to network without it feeling transactional.”
