Why Expectations Ruin Relationships (And How to Break Free)

Do you find yourself feeling resentful, frustrated, or disappointed when others don't meet your expectations? Or perhaps you feel trapped by the expectations others place on you? In this episode, Terry and Haydn explore how expectations affect virtually every aspect of our lives—from our closest relationships to our deepest sense of self.

Through honest personal stories (including Terry's Christmas experience), we examine why expectations ruin relationships and how they keep us trapped in cycles of suffering. You'll discover the difference between self-awareness—which describes and explains—and consciousness, which reveals and resolves.

This is part of humanity's historic evolutionary shift from self-awareness to consciousness—from mental being to spiritual being. Individual transformation is the key to the collective change we all seek.
