In the age of AI, relationships just became the most valuable asset in your business.

But most entrepreneurs have no idea how to build them quickly, authentically, or in a way that actually sticks.

In this episode, Kelly sits down with Behdad Jamshi, an engineer turned entrepreneur, super connector, and founder of CJM Marketing, who has spent seven years reverse engineering how human connection actually works. After connecting with over 4,000 people and helping clients generate $10M+ in five months through the right introductions, he has developed a four-part framework for building deep, meaningful relationships in 10 minutes or less.

From the fish hook introduction that replaces the elevator pitch, to the three levels of conversation and how to leap between them, to the root and bloom model for applying energy to your network, this episode is a masterclass in the one skill that will matter more than any other in the era ahead.

If you have been wondering why your network isn't producing results, this conversation will completely change that.
