About this Event

Have you ever skipped a cool event because you didn’t have anyone to go with?


Does striking up a conversation with a stranger feel daunting?


Social anxiety can hold us back from making new friends, advancing professionally, and living our best life. It’s something everyone experiences from time to time, but with a handful of tools at your disposal, you can conquer it.


Over the last 10 years, Green Drink DC co-founder Spencer Schecht has come a long way on his own journey toward overcoming social anxiety. In this workshop, Spencer offers an arsenal of strategies for thriving in all kinds of social situations. From crafting the perfect elevator pitch to identifying character assets that make you awesome, Spencer helps participants build confidence and treat social situations as an opportunity for growth.


In this workshop, we will:




  • Dive into what triggers social anxiety



  • Identify strategies for using fear as a copilot – “feel the fear and do it anyway”



  • Practice networking and story sharing with other participants



  • Develop actionable steps for social success following the workshop



Your ticket also includes an optional 20-minute one-on-one session with Spencer after the training to follow up on your personal obstacles and tailor your path forward.


Let’s beat social anxiety together!
