If your books are a source of...

That sting of watching the internet's "it" crowd gather in a room you weren't invited to? Kelly has something to say about it. In this episode she pulls back the curtain on the FOMO machine of the online business world: who's engineering that left-out feeling on purpose, the manipulative engagement campaign you'll never be able to unsee once she names it, and why the most successful people she knows quietly choose not to be in those rooms at all. She also gets honest about the difference between looking successful and being successful, and where the real friendships and real strategy actually...

info_outlineIn the age of AI, relationships just became the most valuable asset in your business.
But most entrepreneurs have no idea how to build them quickly, authentically, or in a way that actually sticks.
In this episode, Kelly sits down with Behdad Jamshi, an engineer turned entrepreneur, super connector, and founder of CJM Marketing, who has spent seven years reverse engineering how human connection actually works. After connecting with over 4,000 people and helping clients generate $10M+ in five months through the right introductions, he has developed a four-part framework for building deep, meaningful relationships in 10 minutes or less.
From the fish hook introduction that replaces the elevator pitch, to the three levels of conversation and how to leap between them, to the root and bloom model for applying energy to your network, this episode is a masterclass in the one skill that will matter more than any other in the era ahead.
If you have been wondering why your network isn't producing results, this conversation will completely change that.
