In this episode, I sit down with my dear friend and performance coach Jordan Montgomery to break down the real mechanics of connection, influence, and service. We talk about why the most connected people are the ones constantly promoting others, connecting people to opportunities, and giving without expectation.

Get ready to stop chasing opportunity and start becoming the person opportunity looks for. In This Episode, You Will Learn Why CONNECTED people become connected by CONNECTING others first. How PROMOTING people builds real influence, not just visibility. Why SERVING WITHOUT EXPECTATION creates trust and long-term opportunity.
