Are you sabotaging your relationship by expecting your partner to think, act, and behave like someone different than who they are? The unspoken expectations we have for others can lead to resentment,  disappointment, and conflict in relationship. Today we explore how these invisible lists of instructions can hinder our happiness and relationships. Letting go of these manuals can help to foster more authentic connections and lead to self-empowerment.

What You'll Learn

  • What expectations look like in relationships.
  • How unspoken expectations lead to resentment and conflict.
  • The negative effects of manuals/expectations.
  • Strategies for recognizing and letting go of these expectations.
  • The importance of taking responsibility for one's own happiness.
