Summary
If you're a recovering brain-picker (we've all done it!) your heart is probably in the right place, and what you're really saying is "I respect what you've built and would love to learn from you." Today I'm sharing a few ways to acknowledge someone who you want to learn from, in a way that feels respectful and is more likely to create the connection you're looking to create without saying "I'd love to pick your brain!"
In this episode we talk about:
- Being respectful of time and energy
- Offering to pay for expertise or a consultation
- Asking for resource recommendations
