On this episode guest host Bob Conlin presents another of his relationship episodes, this time about experiences in relationships that can support us or create more conflict and challenges for us: The notion of having expectations in relationships versus agreements.
KEY TAKEAWAYS
BEST MOMENTS
‘When we create agreements in relationships it creates much more harmony and balance and connectedness versus having expectations.’
‘My first default response to “do you need anything?” is “nothing, I’m fine”. don’t know why I’m like that or where I learned it. It gets me in trouble and then I get upset.’
‘Expectations are traps that we place for our partners. They are a way that we don’t get our needs met or get them met in the wrong way.’
‘Agreement is harmony in how we feel, what we need, it’s both of us coming together to agree on something so both individuals can take an appropriate course of action, whatever that may be.’
