Didn't Expect THIS From my 20yr HS Reunion...

Like I'm sure many of you, high school was not the *best* experience for me. I felt like an outsider, I was awkward, etc, etc...

And in the years since, I had really only kept up periodically with 1 or 2 people. Even though there's honestly many more that I thought fondly of, I hadn't been "close" with them (you'll hear me talk about this perception and my struggles with it a bit in this episode), so I didn't reach out ever. I would see FB notifications pop up for a few others as they got married, had kids, and/or moved back to the general area. That sorta thing...

So I honestly didn't plan on bothering with any of the reunions. But for whatever reason, the universe set it up for me to go to my 20th... Can't remember if I even mention this in the recording, but (1) I randomly reconnected with 2 classmates who I'd really admired in HS but had chickened out on pursuing more of a friendship with (read: awkward and convinced other girls didn't like me) and (2) I had a keynote scheduled for 2 days before the reunion that was only 3 hrs away (this ended up getting rescheduled, but I'd already bookmarked flight options to do that and see my family). So after the 2 girls I'd connected with said they might also fly in for it, I said f*ck it, the universe is pointing me in this direction, so let's find out why.

What I did NOT expect is some of the particular emotions it brought up. Listen to the epsiode for what that is and the lesson / growth within it!
