🌴280. Reunion

This weekend marks a pretty wild milestone — it’s my 25-year high school reunion. Yep, class of 2000. I can’t quite believe it’s been that long.I talk about what’s different this time around (spoiler: it’s being held at the actual school), what I noticed at our 10-year reunion (how everyone was still so themselves), and why I think personal development is really about unpeeling layers rather than completely transforming who we are.I also explore the social dynamics of reunions: how a simple Facebook thread can transport you right back into the high school hierarchy, and why I’m choosing to approach this one with curiosity, not comparison.Finally, I share a reframe for small talk: Instead of asking, “What do you do now?” — try asking, “What are you excited about?” (Thanks to Vanessa Edwards for that gem!)I’ll report back next week with how it all goes. Until then, think about it:If you walked back into your high school today, what parts of you would still shine through?— Leanne 💙Pre-order my new book WORK FAME and get featured on the Wall of Work FameSign up for free for my best articles every week: Work Fame.Show notes for every episode at https://podcast.leannehughes.comLet's connect on all the channels:Leanne Hughes on LinkedInLeanne Hughes on InstagramVisit my website: leannehughes.comEmail me: [email protected] you like to deliver your own private podcast feed to your audience?
