Creating Confidence with Heather Monahan
You’re One Connection Away From Changing Your Life with Scott MacGregor
14 Oct 2025
What if one conversation could change the entire direction of your life? In this episode, I bring back one of my favorite conversations with my dear friend, Scott MacGregor, founder of The Outlier Project, founder & CEO of SomethingNew LLC, and bestselling author. Scott and I share how a single LinkedIn message between strangers grew into years of friendship, collaboration, and life-changing opportunities, and how you can do the same. We talk about the mindset shift from transactional networking to building long-term relationships that open unexpected doors. Scott breaks down how to play chess, not checkers, in your career, nurture connections with genuine care, and position yourself as the person everyone wants in the room. Get ready to learn how to build friendships that fuel your goals and transform every ‘no’ into your next opportunity. In This Episode, You Will Learn Why one genuine relationship can change your entire career path. How to play chess instead of checkers in business and networking. The difference between transactional asks and transformational relationships. How to connect with high-impact people (and stay on their radar). How to spot genuine relationships vs. drive-by friendships. The mindset + tactical framework behind building a high-impact network. Resources + Links Join The Way Beyond Networking Masterclass HERE!
