UK 4 slash ISA. Hello and welcome back to Beyond the To Do List, a podcast about productivity.

I'm your host, Eric Fisher.

And in this episode, I'm excited to introduce to you,

my friend, Michaela Alexis. She's got a brand new book out called No Fear Networking, a guide to

building connections for the socially anxious professional. And I've known Michaela for a long time.

She's a keynote speaker, a LinkedIn expert, she's a networking coach. But this is a new topic for her.

She does not shy away from anything, ironically. That's why it's interesting and fun for me to hear

her talk about this topic. There is a lot here, no matter how much anxiety you may or may not have

when it comes to networking. And in this conversation, we're talking about

redefining networking. We're talking about common misconceptions about networking and shifting it from

a transactional thing to a relational thing, how to overcome social anxiety and professional

settings, the power of small interactions, because this doesn't need to be hard.

You can start small.

And just overall learning how to create your own networking style that works for you.

So if you've been feeling like you need to polish your networking game,

you're going to love this conversation with Michaela Alexis.

Well, it is my privilege to welcome to the show, Michaela Alexis.

Michaela, welcome to Beyond the To-Do list.
