If you want to get better at connection and find more adventure in your life, this episode is for you!    Todd Buelow is Co-Founder and Partner at Dualboot Partners, an Inc. 5000 entrepreneur, and 3x Charlotte Business Journal Fast 50 Honoree.

When you approach the conversation from a place of service, you’ll build a genuine connection that could present amazing opportunities in the future. And if nothing comes from it? You still put tons of value and goodness into the world. If you’re shy and trying to meet people, go volunteer in your community. If you choose a cause you’re passionate about, you will meet other people who are also passionate about that cause and you’ll have something in common with them.  Be genuinely curious about other people and use that curiosity to drive the conversation forward. You will meet so many interesting and inspiring people this way without falling into the boring small talk conversation starters.   Wake Up to Your Life is an award-winning podcast hosted by Colleen Odegaard. On this show, you’ll hear from experts (and learn from my own hilarious stories) on how to rediscover yourself in a new season of life, no matter what that looks like for you.    Connect with Colleen:  Instagram Facebook YouTube
