Building Rich Relationships That Last with Selena Soo

Let It Be Easy with Susie Moore

What if your most valuable resource isn't your time, money, or skills – but your relationships? In this illuminating conversation with relationship expert Selena Soo, we explore the transformative concept of "rich relationships" and why they matter more than ever in our AI-dominated world.
Selena reveals that rich relationships massively improve the quality of your business and life through three key characteristics: they bring abundance, connect to your biggest goals, and help you become the best version of yourself. But how do you build them authentically, especially if you're an introvert?
The answer isn't complicated, but it requires intention. Selena shares her revolutionary "Six Circles of Connection" framework that helps you categorize relationships based on proximity and trust – from your innermost connections to distant acquaintances. This mental model prevents you from pouring energy into draining relationships while prioritizing the connections that matter most.
The conversation takes a fascinating turn when Selena introduces the concept of a "generosity fund" – setting aside a percentage of your income specifically to invest in relationships. Rather than spending on conventional marketing, she demonstrates how these intentional investments create ripple effects of abundance that traditional advertising never could.
For those who struggle with knowing what to say, Selena offers practical scripts and frameworks for initiating, deepening, and maintaining authentic connections. She emphasizes that relationships reveal themselves over time, requiring patience rather than rushing intimacy. Her three-level conversation framework shows why so many people fail by asking for collaboration before building a foundation.
Whether you're a business owner looking to expand your network or someone simply wanting deeper personal connections, this episode provides a masterclass in relationship building that has stood the test of time.
