Episode Summary

In a world full of noise and transactions, this episode dives into the powerful idea of giving first—not as a tactic, but as a way of life. Jillian explores the art of intentional generosity and how it builds trust, deepens connections, and sets you apart. Tune in to rethink how you show up in your network.

Episode Notes

This episode of the One Handshake podcast is all about the power of generosity in networking. Jillian invites us to reconsider what it means to give without expecting anything in return—and why those small, intentional acts of generosity are actually the seeds of real opportunity. 

You’ll learn how giving strategically (not endlessly) creates relationship capital, builds trust, and strengthens community. From offering your time to making thoughtful introductions, generosity isn’t just kind—it’s smart. 

If you want to stand out, feel good, and be remembered for how you make others feel, this is a conversation you don’t want to miss.

Come join us in One Handshake and find what generosity looks like first hand.
