All Things Marriage with Dr. Chavonne

Episode 273: When Expectations Clash


Listen Later

Have you ever felt like your partner just doesn’t see eye to eye with you on some of the most important aspects of life? Maybe it’s domestic responsibilities, parenting styles, intimacy, finances, or even how you handle marriage challenges.


The truth is, when it feels like you're constantly clashing, it’s often because you’re not aligned on your values—the deeper essence of what drives your decisions.


In today’s episode, we’re unpacking why these differences can feel so intense and how they tie back to core values versus specific expectations. Whether it's a clash between traditional and modern views on roles, a difference in how you view intimacy, or how you approach finances, these fundamental values impact everything.


I’ll share key insights on how to:

  • Understand the root cause of your disagreements by uncovering your values.
  • Create a partnership where both of you feel equally heard, valued, and invested.
  • Move away from guilt, shame, and pressure to create intentional choices that actually work for both of you.
  • Accept that it’s okay if you’re not always a perfect match, and still find peace and respect in your relationship.


This episode is for anyone who’s feeling stuck in these deeper conflicts and wants to find real alignment and peace in their marriage. If you're ready to uncover the root issues and make empowered choices that bring you closer, tune in now.


And if you'd like my personal help navigating the biggest expectation clashes in your own marriage, I invite you to book a complimentary consultation call with me here: https://drchavonne.com/work-with-me/
