Check out the podcast on Macslist here:(https://www.macslist.org/?post_type=podcasts&p=15926&preview=true)  Does networking feel icky to you? If so, you’re doing it wrong, according to Find Your Dream Job guest Angie Callen. Networking is simply building and nurturing relationships with others, and we all do that with friends and family every day. Angie suggests being proactive but not aggressive and focusing on long-term relationships. She says it’s a mistake to only seek someone out for what they can offer you. That is inauthentic. Build authenticity by being true to who you are and finding others who are like-minded or whom you want to know more about.  About Our Guest: Angie Callen is an award-winning career and business coach and the founder of Career Benders.
