BIG QUESTION: Why do school reunions bring up different emotions for us?

My BIG question this week is around school reunions, and why they can bring up all sorts of emotions for us.

It's something I experienced recently and want to talk through with you, because school can be a fraught time for some of us trying to make sense of who we are and we might not want to revisit those teenage years at a reunion.

When you are around a group of people from a certain formative time in your life you can fall back into those ways of behaving and seeing yourself and it can be triggering and bring up all sorts of emotions.

So in this episode I’m going to share with you the emotions that came up for me at my 35 year reunion, and why I was happy I made the decision to go.

The Jess Rowe Big Talk Show acknowledges the Gadigal people, Traditional Custodians of the land on which we recorded this podcast, and pay our respects to their Elders past, present and extend that respect to all Aboriginal and Torres Strait Islanders peoples here today.
