Episode #799: Brunch, Pastries & Building Real Community in Private Practice with Kelly McCullough

Feeling isolated in private practice but can't get yourself to prioritize connection unless there's a reason on the calendar? Kelly McCullough gets it & she's turned that exact problem into a brunch & learn series that's grown to six or seven events, all for about $30 in Costco pastries. Kelly walks through how she built her invite list from one-on-one networking coffees, why she keeps the speaker portion under 30 minutes (people aren't really there for the speaker, it just gives them a reason to show up), and how she scored a free venue by partnering with someone in her network who had a killer conference room. She also gets into her host strategy of greeting every single person with a hug & immediately introducing them to someone else in the room, plus how she picks speakers who are passionate but adjacent to her own niche. If you've ever wanted to build real community around your practice without spending a fortune, this one's for you.
