Ben Winter is the Author of What to Expect When Having Expectations, a book about understanding where your expectations come from, what drives them, why you aren't always aware of them, how to come to peace after being upset by an expectation going unmet, and increasing communication with yourself and others.
One of the things that lead to him writing a book was taking an improv class. Ben had been to several improv shows, and was always in awe of the actors on stage just creating from audience suggestions. Being so in love with the art form, Ben would speak to the people at the improv school who would suggest he enrolled in classes, but he never had the self confidence to say yes, until he was on a date, and his date decided to take the classes, Ben then joined her and absolutely fell in love with it.
In 2015, Ben had the epiphany that we live every moment of every day of our lives doing improv, "nobody wakes up with a script and even if you had the script, nobody's going to follow it." Upon having this epiphany it became very clear to Ben how the rules of improv apply to life itself. This led him to start the Success Improv company. Not long after starting the business Ben began writing his book What to Expect When Having Expectations.
During our interview Ben tells us what it means to have expecations, how to manage your expectations, and what to expect from having expectations.
