What shapes the way we think about change? Life and career transitions are a common part of the human experience, yet social expectations often reinforce the idea that we should follow a predictable path or have our next steps figured out. Research suggests that reinvention is not an exception, but a recurring and statistically normal part of how people develop, adapt, and grow over time. This session explores how expectations, identity, and perceptions of success can influence the way we respond to transition. Join Sarah Hassaine, global keynote speaker, facilitator, and leadership coach, as she explores the research behind change and the ways reframing reinvention can create opportunities for growth, expansion, and new possibilities. This session will be moderated by NU alumna, Dr. Julie Ducharme (NU, MEd '02), speaker, author, and entrepreneur.
