Five years, 89 episodes, and countless memories—The Huddle has been an incredible journey. When we started I wasn’t sure what to expect, I just knew it was important for associates to hear directly from leadership. Along the way, it became clear there were so many amazing stories to share—like our associates making a difference, leaders driving change, entrepreneurs building something extraordinary, community members creating real impact, and more.
In this special episode, I sit down with Marissa Kargas, who helped bring The Huddle to life in its early days, to reflect on how it all began and what it’s grown into. We revisit some of the most impactful moments and inspiring episodes – highlighting powerful personal journeys, leadership lessons and even a few funny behind-the-scenes bloopers! The very best part of my job is meeting great people all over the country, and it’s been an honor and a privilege sharing these conversations with you. Join us as we celebrate five years of The Huddle and look ahead to what’s next!
