Meet TIffany Mason
Tiffany Mason is a speaker, author, and lifelong connector on a mission to change the way people think about networking. One of the coolest parts of her journey has been looking back and seeing where her connections have taken her. She never set out thinking she was “networking.” She thought she was making friends and getting to know people. Along the way, those relationships led to clients, collaborations, speaking opportunities, friendships, and opportunities she never saw coming.
As the author of Networking Your Way to the Big Stage, Tiffany helps business owners make that same mindset shift. Networking isn’t about collecting business cards, making a quick sale, or wondering, “What can I get out of this?” It’s about getting to know people, staying connected, and realizing you never know where one relationship might lead. Tiffany is also the co-founder of Bond & Beyond Network and co-host of The Link Up Lounge, where connection, business, and personal growth are always part of the conversation.
Connection also plays a role in Tiffany’s work as a podcast manager. As the founder of Virtually You!, she has spent more than six years helping entrepreneurs consistently show up and build relationships with their audiences. She sees podcasting as networking at scale, another way to start conversations and make connections. On stage, Tiffany encourages audiences to show up, be curious about people, build trust, and stay connected. Because the person you meet today may not be your next client, but they may know the person who changes everything.
What I'm Listening to
Tiffany In Media:
In this conversation, I share practical ways to be more intentional about making connections, following up, and staying top of mind without making networking feel forced or salesy. We talk about local networking, relationship building, the Know, Like, and Trust factor, and why simply showing up consistently can make a real difference in your business.
I believe networking isn’t about how many people you know or how many business cards you collect. The real value comes from building genuine relationships and giving people the chance to know and trust you. That’s when referrals, collaborations, and opportunities start to happen naturally.

Erica Saccoccio is a very motivational and charismatic speaker and podcast host. When she was recently at a Child Care Conference, women were saying how they dream of having a podcast. She wanted to have me on her podcast to talk about how to get started in podcasting. When one of your client's ask you to be a guest on their show...you say yes! We had a great time talking about the three most important things to consider when starting a podcast.

The Toilet Paper Dilemma with a Twist in Accessibility
Got a lil somethin' for all you bathroom-goers to think about! I'm taking a plunge into the topic of the world of toilet paper dispensers. Specifically, I want to address a particular quirk - what's up with the height difference between regular and handicapped toilet paper dispensers?
Picture this: I entered a public restroom, ready to answer nature's call, and as I approached the stall, I notice something peculiar. There, right in front of me, hung a toilet paper dispenser—one pretty fairly high and a second one at the regular knee height! (actual pic of the regular stall because I was so perplexed) I couldn't help but wonder, "Why did they do that?"
It's no secret that the so-called "handicap" toilet paper dispensers are designed to accommodate individuals with mobility challenges. But this was a regular stall. But let's be honest, folks: does the height of the dispenser really need to be knee height? Sometimes you really have to contort yourself to get? I mean, I've seen more ergonomic positions during yoga class! It was so nice to reach up and get toilet paper without pulling a muscle (I don't really pull a muscle, but you know what I mean.)
Wouldn't it be a stroke of genius to level the playing field (or should I say, the toilet stall)? Imagine a world where all toilet paper dispensers were elevated to a height that saves us from lower-back gymnastics and spinal twists.
And hey, the benefits wouldn't end there! With universally higher toilet paper dispensers, we'd no longer have to worry about the toilet paper grazing the restroom floor, getting tangled up in some unsightly mess, and possibly limiting the lil shreds of toilet paper that occurs as a result of not being able to see exactly what you are doing. You would actually be able to see which side has toilet paper in the dispenser. Sometimes you slide the lil guard over to find no more toilet paper OR a roll that needs to be started but you can't find the beginning. No more playing "toilet paper tug of war" or wondering whether we're engaging in a germ-filled game of TP Russian roulette.
Imagine the convenience—smooth, effortless unrolling at a comfortable height. We'd all have a moment to appreciate the beauty of seamless toileting experiences, unburdened. It would be a revolution, my friends—a bathroom revolution!
Now, I understand the intention behind the elevated handicapped toilet paper dispensers, and I wholeheartedly support the need for accessibility in public spaces. But can't we find a middle ground? A compromise that satisfies both functionality and usability? Or just raise it in the regular stalls? Let's put our collective thinking caps on and come up with a solution that works for everyone.
In the meantime, let us navigate the labyrinth of toilet paper dispensers with a sense of humor.
Remember, folks, when life throws you high toilet paper dispensers, reach for the stars (or, in this case, the toilet paper) and enjoy the ride. And who knows, maybe someday, we'll all experience a world where the only twists we encounter are in the gym and not in our bathroom routine.
