Why Having Expectations For People Will Only Let You Down

We all have expectation, for our partners, our friends, our family, our coworkers, and even complete strangers. But what happens when those expectations aren’t communicated… or aren’t met? In this episode, we’re talking about why unmet expectations are often the fastest route to resentment, disappointment, and unnecessary conflict. We share our own experiences navigating relationships, business, and everyday life, and discuss the difference between having healthy standards and expecting people to think, act, or prioritize the way you do. If you’ve ever found yourself frustrated because someone “should have known better,” this conversation might change the way you approach your relationships for the better. Tune in as we unpack why letting go of unrealistic expectations doesn’t mean lowering your standards—it means protecting your peace.
