The unfortunate reality of being a #SuperConnector is that most people assume you already know everyone you need to know, so there’s no need to connect you to other people. Facilitating connection between people in my network is rewarding enough on its own and I never do so with the intention of someone owing me a favor, but being the recipient of a warm introduction from time to time feels pretty fantastic too. ⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀⠀ Luckily, I have a handful of fellow Super Connectors in my life who bring my name up in rooms I’m not in, and are the first to offer support in the way of mentioning people they’d love to introduce me to. Molly Beck is one of those people. Molly and I met in a Bossladies worksesh in the summer of 2018, and my life has been infinitely better ever since. When Molly moved to Florida, she connected me to her nanny who ended up becoming an integral part of our family for 3 years (including the entire pandemic.) She’s introduced me to people she thinks I should know, like podcast hosts who might want me on their show and people who would make great guests for my podcast. But it’s not just people she connects me to - Molly’s also known to send links to podcasts, books, and articles that she thinks I’ll enjoy, not to mention job and speaking opportunities. Beyond all of the connection generosity she’s extended to me through the years, Molly is also an incredible collaborator, cheerleader, and friend. Even though we only lived in the same city for a short period of time, our friendship has only grown stronger with each year. She’s always ready with advice, ideas, and major moral support anytime I reach out, and her words always hit me at exactly the right moment. I’m grateful beyond measure for Molly and the other Super Connectors in my life for doing for me what I do for so many. You’re the best, Moll!! 👩🏻🤝👩🏼
