The Truth About Networking (And What Most People Get Wrong)

Vivian sits down with Danielle Robay, the journalist Forbes called the “Queen of Questions” and host of Question Everything and Reese’s Book Club podcast, for a conversation about the underrated skill that can change your career, relationships, and life: knowing how to ask good questions. From networking and career pivots to money conversations and personal growth, Danielle breaks down why curiosity might be one of the most valuable assets you can build.

In this episode, you'll learn:

1. What makes someone a genuinely great conversationalist, how to ask questions that actually lead to meaningful answers, and the networking mistakes most people don’t realize they’re making.

2. How to navigate difficult or awkward conversations, from bringing up money with partners and friends to asking smarter questions during interviews, coffee chats, and career transitions.

3. How Danielle defines success beyond financial achievement, the mindset shifts that help people keep growing instead of staying stuck, and why curiosity, connection, and self-awareness matter just as much as ambition.
