I've totally been there before but don't feel bad! Chances are they're more than happy to help
You don't necessarily need a large friend group to take advantage of network opportunities. Reach out to who you know already and see if they can help introduce you to other individuals. Best of luck!
Yeah that's the hardest part, ya know? Asking people for introductions always makes me feel really uncomfortable. Makes me feel kinda gross. I know that's totally wrong, but it's something Keep trying to shake.
Most people are pretty willing to help each other out. Add who you know on linked in and send them a message. Be nice and non-selfish ("Hope things are good at XYZ agency!" "Saw you moved to a cool new account recently, congrats!") and then ask if they'd mind doing an e-introduction for you. I've done dozens, it's honestly no big deal. The only thing that gives me pause sometimes is if the person asking me is really bad at their work and they want a reference for a job, cause that can make me look out of touch... but just a personal intro to another person is easy. Networking isn't slimy if you're not slimy.
