Episode 27 The Experts We Meet Part 3 with Danielle Baily

In this insightful episode, Faithann sits down with Danielle Baily, a longtime collaborator and expert in helping high-performing but scatterbrained individuals find clarity in life and business. Danielle shares her personal journey, her work as an efficiency and implementation consultant, and how she came into Faithann’s life during a pivotal and vulnerable moment in 2020.

Together, they explore how understanding the brain—specifically the Reticular Activating System (RAS) and the Amygdala—can help you not only survive networking events but thrive in them.

What You’ll Learn:

• What the Reticular Activating System (RAS) is and how it affects your visibility and effectiveness in networking

•  How to leverage the RAS to stay top of mind when you're not in the room

•  The importance of specificity in your 60-second pitch to “train” other people’s brains to remember you

• How the Amygdala (the brain’s emotional alarm system) can sabotage your attempts to network before you even walk in the room

• Why you shouldn’t beat yourself up for feeling anxious before an event—it’s just your brain trying to protect you

• The value of persistence and familiarity in making networking feel more natural over time

Quotes to Remember:

“Your brain processes billions of bits of information—your job is to educate others' brains to notice you.” – Danielle Bailey “When you ask for anyone, you get no one.” – Faithann “The Amygdala is your ancestry brain—it’s there to keep you safe, not to help you network.” – Danielle Baily
