EP 44: Aaron Desmond - Networking, Resilience & Rebuilding Life After Divorce
Is networking overrated? What’s the secret to becoming a good networker? For episode 44 I’m joined by Aaron Desmond - a popular figure on the Essex networking circuit. Aaron fronts the ever-growing Networking Essex with the sole purpose of bringing businesses together through networking events within Colchester, Chelmsford, Southend and surrounding areas. Aaron has shown phenomenal strength and resilience throughout his personal life. In later years, Aaron recalls the moment his ex-wife decided to suddenly leave the family home without warning, whilst bringing up two young daughters and rebuilding his life. A huge shock to the system he never expected. Aaron admits he enjoys a challenge from hitchhiking around the world in his formative years to taking the positives from hardships he’s been dealt and subsequently overcome during life’s journey.
