I know what it’s like to not have a network.

I’m Rachel, the Connection Catalyst.

I had the corporate dream. But I was virtually alone. There wasn’t a network around me - friendships, relationships, and not being known meant I had no leverage to get where I wanted to go.

New roles, new opportunities were in short supply because I was not KNOWN. I’m here to walk you through the process of being known, and into that security and financial reward that comes through relationships

I’ve helped hundreds of people become stronger networkers, and now, it’s your turn.

Connection Catalyst boasts a diverse clientele spanning across various industries, from established Fortune 500 companies to dynamic tech startups, solopreneurs, and institutions of higher learning.
