Stop Expecting You From People
Expecting people to show up with your emotional depth, care, and intensity can quietly lead to disappointment — and self-doubt.
In this episode of MON (Monday Over Negativity), we talk about why expecting others to love, communicate, and respond the way you do often hurts — and why that doesn’t mean you’re too much. Through MON Stories, personal reflection, and a faith-based perspective, this episode unpacks the difference between expectations and projection, emotional capacity, and learning to stop punishing yourself for caring deeply.
You’ll be reminded that everyone is wired differently on purpose, that disappointment is proof you cared — not that you cared too much — and that redirecting unreturned energy back into yourself is an act of self-love.
Your wiring is sacred. Your depth is divine. Keep showing up.
00:00 Introduction & January Reset
01:31 MON Stories: Still Showing Up
07:00 Stop Expecting You From People
10:40 The Orchestra Analogy: Different Wiring, Same Worth
13:40 Faith Anchor: Different Functions, Same Value
Takeaways:
Disappointment is proof that you cared, not that you cared too much.
Different wiring does not mean different worth.
Emotional depth is a gift, not a liability.
Redirect unreturned energy back into yourself.
You’re not too much — you’re exactly enough.
