Sometimes the hardest moments in life are not the ones where something goes wrong, but the ones where something does not go the way we expected.

In this episode of Gratitude and Growth, we talk about how unmet expectations quietly create frustration, disappointment, and emotional weight, even when nothing “bad” actually happened.

This is a conversation about the stories we write in our heads, how those stories shape our reactions, and what happens when we learn to release the outcome and trust what life, and God, are doing instead.
