I usually try to find networking events, whether they be online or in person, it helps take a lot of the stress and anxiety off of me when I know that everyone around me is trying to build connections too. I also make sure to give myself an off day after one of those events so that I can recharge and not get burnt out from all of the socializing.
OP it can be so hard to network when you are an introvert. I am the same way and it really drains my battery. However, I know that it is really important and could help me out later down the road so I make myself do it.
I never strive to be the life of the party. I think you want to make an impression but not stand out as too out there. I often find those people are lacking substance and assume they’re overcompensating for something. Just show up as your authentic self!
I think it’s important to schedule in time to decompress afterwards and make sure you have at least one night a week where you don’t have a bunch of social obligations going on, no matter how fulfilling they may be.
