Skipping reunions.
Recommended by Koorb
I highly recommend skipping your high school reunion. And skipping your college reunion.

Happy to say I never go to reunions!
My favorite university professor (who taught “Personal Creativity and Innovation”) said to skip every reunion, except the fiftieth.
As a student at Yale, he worked campus events. Most reunions were attended by those with either something to prove or nothing to do. All except the fiftieth.
By then, those who showed up were happy to be alive.
No grudges. No agenda. Just a joy of connection.

I left government for museums! Best decision I ever made. But I had to go back to school (at 50, fyi) to get a masters in museum studies. It was scary but worth it. I am lucky because I have a partner who could support our family while I was in school. I realize it is much more difficult otherwise. Seek out mentors. Ask your friends to help you make connections. Join industry networking groups. It's boring advice, but I think it's the right advice. Best of luck to you.
