Inspired by A Gathering Makeover

Digital Learning Radio

In this season Kathryn and Laura are inspired to learn and inspired to share. Each week they discuss the ongoing story of their learning as they engage in reflective practice to connect their ideas and continuously grow. This week Kathyrn and Laura both shared their inspiration from Priya Parker and her book The Art of Gathering as well as her Gathering Makeover series.

Kathryn and Laura spend time considering the following reflection questions from the Gathering Makeover series:

• During the past 12-16 months, what did you miss and long for that you couldn’t do with others?
• What activities or ways of spending time with other people did you not miss? What might you want to discard for good?
• What did we learn, create, or try anew during the pandemic that we want to bring with us?
• What might we invent going forward?
