Unmet expectations in relationships are some of the biggest causes of upset.
We have said that as part of a number of episodes, but in this week's episode, we are diving right into the heart of it. This is something we see in our work with clients ALL the time - getting lost in the expectations (whether made known or not), rather than being with the reality of the situation.
And it is so often that resistance to being with the reality of a situation, person, relationship, experience, etc. that we create even more suffering for ourselves and our loved ones.
So, how does this show up in queer and poly dynamics? Well, a lot of different ways and we go over some of the common ones that we see play out, as well as those that we have experienced ourselves. And don't worry, we don't leave you hanging without any actions you can take around this for yourself and your relationships!
What have been some challenging expectations that you have had to release or address when they are not lining up with the reality of your relationships?
Sending you so much love!
