S7E4: letting go of expectations & dealing with unpredictability


Listen Later

"My happiness grows in direct proportion to my acceptance, and in inverse proportions to my expectations.”

Seeing as miss rona has well and truly made a comeback in Notts, everything feels a little bit too unpredictable and up in the air lately. With so many xmassy plans and aspects of my uni routine scrapped this week I've felt a bit stressed out by the way things can change all too quickly and without any control. Which got me thinking about the expectations we have for future events, ourselves and others. So in this week's episode I chat about how most of the time, expectations just led to unrealistic goals of perfection or beliefs that we'll be happy at some point 'in the future'.

I hope you enjoy and that if you're experiencing any covid anxiety that it can be a welcome distraction or something to feel less alone. Lots of love and stay safe x
