    Your Bad Day Doesn't Need a Bubble Bath... Let's talk self-care

Connection Messages Guidebook to steal our words and take them as your own! https://www.cassthompson.com/connectionSPEAKING INQUIRIES 🙋🏼‍♀️Contact: Cass@cassthompson.comhttps://www.cassthompson.com/speakerCass Thompson reflects on how “self-care” has come to mean coping alone and questions whether that shift has contributed to isolation, loneliness, and a “friendship recession.” She argues that while solo activities can help, many struggles like stress, burnout, grief, and overwhelm are often better addressed through connection, friendship, and community rather than only private coping or professional therapy. Drawing on a counseling-center example, she notes that many people may need friends more than experts, and warns that excessive “processing” alone can become rumination, which research links to worsened mood and impaired problem-solving. She also discusses behavioral activation and healthy distraction as beneficial alternatives, critiques how “trauma dumping” and “protect your peace” language can discourage appropriate sharing, and encourages making time to reach out—and to be reachable—for others.SHOP AMAZON to See our Favorite Things!

    How to Survive the Awkward First 10 Minutes of Any Networking

    Get the FULL Confidently Connect Workshop at https://www.cassthompson.com/connectworkshop Cass Thompson reframes networking as building authentic professional relationships that create mutual opportunities, not collecting business cards or forcing transactional conversations at mixers. She argues most networking is follow-up with people you’ve already met, and the awkwardness mainly comes from first interactions, so she recommends embracing that discomfort and even reframing nerves as excitement. For one-on-one coffees or lunches, she suggests preparing a few simple small-talk questions to ease the transitional moments and build trust. For events, she advises remembering others are also new, using a brief burst of bravery to join a group, and entering with a straightforward, slightly vulnerable line asking to join the conversation. She warns against “rushing the ask,” encourages patient follow-up, and highlights “dormant ties” as a powerful networking resource.00:00 Why Networking Feels Awkward00:15 What Networking Really Is02:33 Embrace the Awkward Mindset04:22 One-on-One Small Talk Prep07:46 Mixers and Event Openers10:29 Stop Rushing the Ask12:47 Use Dormant Ties Instead13:49 Recap and Next StepsSHOP AMAZON to See our Favorite Things!
