📍 The Power of Local Events & Low-Key Networking in 2026 — with Arianna Smith
You don’t have to be an extrovert to host events. (I promise.)
In today’s episode, I’m talking to licensed therapist and intuitive copywriter Arianna Smith about the event series she’s been hosting since 2023 and how in-person networking has changed her business for the better.
If you’re thinking about how to be less online and more IRL in 2026, this episode is for you! Tune in to learn all about:
- Why Arianna decided to host in-person events & how she found her first venues
- Different approaches to RSVPs & free vs paid events
- Why relationships are the only timeless marketing “strategy”
- How to tend to yourself while hosting events
- Different types of events to host depending on your personality
- What to do if nobody shows up
