Beyond The Handshake
Welcome to Beyond The Handshake, hosted by Lucy Miller—Founder of Women Connect and a passionate advocate for building meaningful business relationships. On this podcast, we dive deep into the stories behind businesses and their leaders, exploring what drives their success, what keeps them going, and the challenges they face. We’ll uncover the “why” behind their work, their biggest struggles, triumphs, and the valuable lessons they’ve learned along the way.
It’s time we go beyond the handshake—beyond the business card exchange and initial introduction—to cultivate deeper, more authentic relationships.
Lucy’s experience creating Women Connect, a fast-growing professional women's networking group with chapters across Tennessee, Alabama, and Kentucky, fuels her love for helping others build lasting connections. What began in 2020 as local networking events has expanded into a thriving community, hosting monthly events and the annual LIVE conference—a highlight of Lucy’s year.
Join us as we take business relationships to the next level and learn from the best in the business world.
