Episode 35 // Our expectations shape our experience of life. What do you expect from your husband? Your job? What about your expectations of yourself, or of God?

Unmet expectations creates disappointment, discouragement, and distance in our relationships. And one of the biggest reasons that our expectations wind up going unmet is that they are sometimes unrealistic in the first place!

In my 10+ years as a counselor, I have seen the destructive power of unrealistic expectations in a marriage, with our children, and even in one’s own spiritual or emotional health.

That’s why in today’s episode, we are looking at why our expectations matter and how to shift so that we have realistic expectations of ourselves and others. 

It’s important stuff, friend. Let’s dive in.
