Expectations at Home
We all hold expectations in relationships whether we consciously know it or not. We each look at things through our own lens but how often do we expect others to see things the way we do? During this quarantine that we're all forced into our home atmosphere could be affected because of an underlying playbook that we have. In this episode, we discuss what some of those expectations are and ways to boost our relationships for the better and create a more peaceful home environment.
