Networking for Introverts
A training for practitioners with Camille Freeman
August 11 from 5-6:30 pm ET
Class Description
Networking can often feel like you're stepping into a crowded room where everyone seems to know each other, and you're left standing alone, wondering how to start a conversation. The thought of "putting yourself out there" can be daunting, but being part of a community of practitioners can make all the difference when it comes to bringing in new clients.
You might find yourself avoiding networking events, missing out on collaborations or learning opportunities, simply because the process feels overwhelming or unnatural.
This class is designed to offer practical, low-pressure strategies to help you create meaningful connections in a way that suits your personality and professional needs. We talked about how to network authentically and comfortably, using methods that align with your values and communication style. From online platforms to small group interactions, we explored various avenues that make networking not only manageable but enjoyable.
By the end of the session, you'll be able to:
Understand simple ways to start and grow connections without feeling overwhelmed.
Learn how to network in a way that feels natural and fits your personality.
Discover practical tips for making the most of both online and small group networking.
Gain confidence to participate in networking opportunities without pressure or stress.

She then earned an MS in Herbal Medicine from MUIH under Simon Mills, James Snow and Kevin Spelman, followed by a second MS in Physiology and Biophysics from Georgetown University and a doctorate in Clinical Nutrition from MUIH.
