In this episode, Billy sits down with communication powerhouse Brittany Fowler —executive coach, network facilitator, and long-time co-host of the Power Moves Podcast. Together, they explore authentic networking, intentional personal branding, and the future of real human connection in a technology-first world. Brittany also shares about her faith journey, her upcoming podcast, and why making time for yourself may be the most productive decision you can make.

The conversation follows these main points:

• Why networking isn’t about you—and how pride quietly sabotages executive communication.
• How introverts can thrive by shifting focus from performance to curiosity.
• The art of a great introduction (and why most people get it wrong).
• Adding value without forcing it—and a simple closing line that transforms every networking conversation.
• Why breadth is overrated—and depth is the real key to executive branding.
• The future of networking in an AI-saturated world and why human, in-person connection is becoming more—not less—valuable.

They explore the dynamics of internal networking, the importance of checking in on people without an agenda, and the pitfalls leaders create when they delay hard conversations. Brittany also shares a remarkable airport-day story that proves some of the best connections can only happen when life throws you curveballs.

The episode closes with Brittany’s answer to the signature question:

“Making more _______ is most important to you right now?”

Her reply—making more time for herself—opens a powerful reflection on rest, spiritual renewal, personal discipline, and the clarity that comes only in quiet spaces.

Finally, Brittany offers a first look at her upcoming faith-centered podcast, At the Feet of the Father, and invites listeners to connect with her directly on LinkedIn.
