Expectations.  In spite of our best efforts, we all have them.  Sometimes we're even struggling to conform to other's expectations of us.  Most often, however, it is our own expectations of ourselves and what we "were supposed to do with our lives" that hurts us the most.  What expectations have you struggled with the most?  Were those expectations things you put on yourself or did they come from outside of yourself? Sometimes simply recognizing and acknowledging expectations is enough to let them go and move on.  Other times it's a little more difficult and still other times professional help might become necessary in order to accept those expectations might not have been realistic in the first place.  Many people even find themselves becoming depressed due to not meeting their own expectations of themselves or of others...again, professional help might be indicated! Please share the show link and let us know how you feel about expectations.  As always, thanks so much for listening!
