Do you struggle with social anxiety?


Shideh Doerr, CEO & Chief Magician Officer at JabberYak, discusses how to feel more comfortable when networking and shares tips to keep your social battery charged.



Read on for information about the star of this episode, Shideh!



I’m a wife, mom of three boys (all human!) and one labradoodle girl, and a daughter, sister, friend, entrepreneur, strategist and volunteer.


As a first-generation Persian-American, my parents immigrated to the U.S. in the 1970s and I was the only girl, the monkey in the middle between my two brothers. After spending 25-plus years in healthcare administration, I was ready for a new adventure. That's when JabberYak came into the picture, and it was a perfect fit for my love of connecting people.


Even as a natural social butterfly (thanks to my culture), I know how awkward it can be to walk into a room full of strangers. At JabberYak, we’re all about breaking the ice and making networking fun, helping event planners foster meaningful connections. I’m always eager to grow as a resource in the event industry and can’t wait to learn, share and help shape its future. And of course, I'm excited to bring the gift of gab back to every conversation and create those lifelong bonds.
