Almost 25 years later. ❤️
Lanny Stokes and I worked together nearly 25 years ago and hadn’t seen each other since.
Then I got a call.
“I see Green Meadows Partners all over LinkedIn, and I knew I needed to call Natalie.”
And the funny thing is, I knew exactly who was calling.
I remembered Lanny as someone I trusted, respected, and genuinely enjoyed working with all those years ago. I also remember him as a pretty stand up dude! And apparently, he remembered me as a good (and hysterical) gal too! 😆
Life’s paths are so fun!
You work with a lot of people over the course of a career. Some you remember, and some you REALLY remember.
Nearly 25 years later, we sat down on the couch and picked right back up.
Relationships matter. How you treat people matters. And doing good work with good people tends to stick with you.
Also, apparently all this LinkedIn posting is working. 😂💚
