This group gathers in person by default -- retreats, masterminds, cruises, booths, dinners. Screens are how they stay in touch between rooms, not the main event.
The same faces turn up on the same circuit, year after year: Beyond, A4M, Eudemonia, NBJ, Hack Your Health, Dispenza's retreats, Ignite Mastermind.
Five years after one event, someone texted Steven asking to organize a reunion of that same room. Nobody asked him to build that habit. It was already there.
Deals have formed between people he introduced, with him nowhere in the room. Two separate supplier relationships he brokered are now entangled with each other at the leadership level -- a connection he made twice, that then kept connecting on its own.
