Important! Setting up to go live and network:

To achieve the best results:

  1. Find a quiet place in your home or office to use during the session
  2. If you are outdoors (since you can join from Anywhere!), like coffee shops, or other public places, just make sure someone would be able to hear you so you can have great conversations properly.
  3. Test your audio devices prior to going live with your session.
