From Icky to Sticky

Turn anxiety into confidence,
and contacts into connections

Your network isn’t optional. It’s the engine powering every opportunity, promotion, and partnership.

Without it, doors stay closed—or even worse, invisible.

With it, you’ll be ready when doors open faster than you imagined.

What People Are Saying

“This is a whole new skill I learned later in life—and it’s changed how I live.”

“It illuminates connection in a way that nothing else does.”

“I used to think being quiet or reserved meant I wasn’t built for connection. Now I know I just needed tools.”

And these aren’t isolated wins. They’re what happens when you stop treating networking as a last-ditch scramble.

But these clients didn’t start there. And neither did I.

For many of us, networking starts strong but levels off over time. Outreach begins to feel transactional, exhausting, or fake—like a guessing game that never pays off. That’s hard to sustain.

But the truth is that without strong connections, careers stall. Opportunities go to someone else. And showing up can feel harder every day because you feel more and more behind.

Then one day you wake up, realizing your network has hit its limit after your goals evolved.

It doesn’t have to stay that way.

Whether you’re starting fresh in a new field, or just ready for your network to reflect who you’ve become, it’s never too late to build in a new way.

With the right tools, practice, and support, networking shifts from draining to energizing, and from awkward and anxious to authentic and confident.

Meet Rachel,

The Connection Catalyst

I’m a former workaholic who built my career through my network.

But when I decided to change paths and didn’t know what to do next, I realized that because I’d spent so many years head-down delivering results, my connections were deep inside one industry and nowhere else. My world was smaller than I thought.

Networking felt icky and transactional, but I knew I had to start from scratch. So I did—meeting more than 300 people in a year and learning how to build genuine relationships instead of just contacts.

That experience showed me that networking isn’t a talent some people are just born with. It’s a learnable skill that can transform careers and lives. And that’s why I built programs that give you the shortcuts I wish I’d had.

  • “The way I showed up got my five-month contract extended. People want more of me—not a surprise version, but the version I now lead with intentionally.”

  • “I used these skills to get my daughter off a 9-month medical waitlist and secure school accommodations the next day.”

  • “I can confidently talk about myself without embarrassment or shame for not having a job and truly show up with my values.”
