I have a confession.
I don’t particularly like networking 😬.
You know the kind…
- Walk into a room.
- Look around at people already in conversation.
- Approach some strangers and tell them what you do.
- Listen while they tell you what they do.
- Swap business cards, or e-card in my case (save the trees).
- Promise to “catch up soon”.
That kind of set up is definitely not why I created PaSHN. I wanted to create somewhere:
- People could actually get to know each other.
- You can ask a question without worrying whether you should already know the answer.
- You can say, “I’m struggling with this” and someone might be able to help.
- You can share something you’ve learned without it turning into a sales pitch.
- You can simply have a chat with other people who care about doing things better.
No pitching.
No posturing.
No judgement.
Just people.
That’s PaSHN 💜.
If you’ve been looking for a business community that doesn’t feel cringe-business-networky, you might have just found your people.
There are two ways to join - full PaSHN membership at £25 a month, or PaSHN Lite at £10 a month.

Image shows the PaSHN logo and the text networking, without the networking. There are two scenes:
1 - A grey networking event, with three people stood together. Their thought bubbles say “what do I say?”, “do I have to pitch?” and “will I see them again?” The face we can see clearly looks like they’d rather be anywhere else.
2. A colourful scene of a group people sitting together and chatting, with smiles on their faces.
