ABOUT
This isn’t your grandpa’s networking.
What if you stopped networking and instead started building intentional, authentic relationships?
What if you made building authentic relationships a part of your weekly and monthly goals? What if you met cool people just for the sake of meeting cool people, and you allowed yourself to see where it takes you?
At One Hello, we discourage “networking” for the sake of leverage and, instead, help you focus on building real relationships.
When networking feels less transactional and more like it should (like it’s enriching our lives), that’s the sweet spot!
