Ep. 583 - Networking - Platinum Trip

Jason Schroeder shares real lessons from a Tony Robbins networking training, admitting that despite being an extrovert overall, meeting new people is actually one of his weakest areas. He gives concrete examples of financial and marriage advice he picked up from strangers in a single conversation, and breaks down what real, authentic networking actually looks like versus working the room. The episode closes with a personal realization from years of business travel: there are far more good people in this world than we think, we're just not connected.
