88. Reunion Class of 1988: Go Unicorns!

Ep 88. Dedicated to the NCSSM Class of 1988. Women support women in a lot of ways. As we wrap up ADHD and Menopause Awareness Month, I wanted to share a personal experience at my 35th high school reunion. Have you ever attended a class reunion? Middle School, High School or College? There is a lot of thought that goes into planning and attending a reunion. And then there is the fear, who will show up or will they recognize me? It takes courage to show up and be ourselves. We may wonder if others are more successful or happier than we are? The great thing about getting older, is that the majority of people do grow up and just want you to be happy in life as well. Give it a try. Show up for yourself and for the person who thought you were very cool in life. You will learn about accepting the greater challenge, the NCSSM motto (North Carolina School of Science and Math). And after 40, sometimes the greater challenge is showing up or setting healthy boundaries. At the end, I share encouragement I wrote to a dear friend - if you need to hear that you are worthy regardless of your performance, perfection, or expectations of others, be sure to listen until the end. Here's to finding your unicorn in life, your greatest purpose, with roots to remember the past, but wings to fly into what is next for you. What feeds your soul and passion?\ Thank you to Julie, Anja, Emily and all those who created an amazing experience, a true labor of love for 1/3 of our graduating class to attend.
