Most relationships don’t break because of betrayal or bad intent—they break down slowly through unmet unspoken expectations, assumptions, and quiet resentment. In this episode, we unpack how misaligned expectations impact business, leadership, friendships, and marriage, and why high performers often struggle with this more than anyone else. We dive into the danger of ambiguity, the importance of separating intent from impact, and how clarity, candor, and ongoing communication can realign relationships before they break—or help repair them after they do.
