Replay #7: how expectations damage your relationship and dating experience

From episode 13, today we speak about the invisible contract: all the things you expect from love that you never actually said out loud. In this episode I cover the difference between assumptions, standards, and expectations, and why the silence around them is what really damages our relationships. I explore where these hidden rules come from: our families, our culture, the movies we grew up on, and the exes who left scars we mistook for boundaries. I share my own messy rule book too. And I give you two simple heart work exercises to start making the invisible visible. Enjoy a cold drink over this hot day in JulyGet in touch at @adele_thecoach
