When small business feels lonely, how do you build the kind of connections that actually help you grow without forcing yourself into awkward, salesy networking?

Lisa Morey sits down with Sally Manning (Business Manager of the Wagga Wagga Business Chamber) to talk about what relationships really mean in small business, why connection matters so much in regional communities and how to find support in a way that feels genuine and sustainable.

What you’ll take away: - Why loneliness in small business is more common than people admit and what to do about it. - How to start building connections in business, even if networking feels intimidating or draining. - What introverts can do to ease into networking without forcing a personality that isn’t theirs. - Why building the right support team around you, from accountants to marketers to contractors, can make a business more sustainable.
