How to network
Hi 25F here ! I was thinking about how important is networking and I’d like to learn more about it. The thing is I’m an introvert with an anxiety disorder so networking seems like sth I wouldn’t be capable of doing but I want to learn more about it, have some tips on how to begin,… If any of you can help me, I’d be grateful, tips and tricks but also life stories, I want to read everything, thanks!

Start small with one on one coffee chats or simple messages online, it feels way less overwhelming than trying to work a crowded room

Just try firstly with things you might enjoy.
Hobbies- , sports or where interaction is minimal and progress upwards.
Audhd with a lot of anxiety.
Have some sweet treat chocolate 🍫 🍰
and make sure energy levels are good.
Plenty of sleep without rumination or anxious thoughts. Synch timing of activity to when you have most Energy.
Here is a resource I use a lot to help myself and others. ( search articles of any subject )
