Hey there, you guys! Welcome back to another episode of "Becoming the CEO of Your Life." today we're diving into the crucial topic of aligning expectations. Not only will we discuss how to align our own expectations with reality, but we’ll also explore the expectations others have for us and how to navigate those with intention.
Show Notes:- Introduction: Setting the stage for aligning expectations and understanding the importance of closing the alignment gap in our lives.
- Understanding the Alignment Gap: We talk about the gap between what we want and what is happening in our lives, and how it affects our fulfillment and happiness.
- Example: A client felt free and creative only when writing but spent most of her time on tasks meeting others' expectations.
- Questioning Secret Contracts: We delve into the unspoken rules we follow in relationships, known as secret contracts, and how they can lead to resentment.
- Example: Secret contracts in my household, like my husband breaking down recycling boxes and me making dinner.

- Example: Conversations with my son about his summer job and family reunion plans, and helping him make decisions aligned with his priorities.

- Self-Reflection: Questions to ask yourself about your current roles and how they align with your true desires.
- Handling Emotions and Expectations: Learning to feel and manage our emotions and allowing others to do the same, rather than trying to meet every expectation.
