Whitney is joined by Alex Raymond, RD and founder of Courage to Nourish, who built a multi-state group practice almost entirely through intentional, systemized networking. Alex breaks down her two-branch approach to networking — from cold outreach to nurturing active referral sources — and gives you the exact steps she takes to turn a cold email into a lasting referral relationship. If you're ready to get more aligned referrals without the overwhelm, hit play and then follow the show so you never miss an episode. Takeaways: Networking is about building relationships, not just collecting contacts — understanding what a provider does helps you make better referrals for your own clients. Use a two-branch system: cold outreach (10–20 new providers/month) and active nurturing of existing referral sources. A scheduling link in your email signature is one of the simplest, highest-ROI tools you can add to your networking workflow. You don't need a CRM right away — start with a Gmail template and a system you can actually sustain, then build from there. A follow-up email after every networking call, plus a provider newsletter or check-in every 1–2 months, keeps you top of mind without feeling salesy.
