Summary
A part of heartbreak includes unfulfilled expectations. Expectations of yourself and expectations others had for you. During the holidays, these expectations are typically top of mind, as the year ends, family gathers (or not) and feelings are felt about everything that didn't happen.
Learning to feel content and do I dare even say "proud" during this time is possible. Learn to stop focusing on what you don't have so that you can focus on what you do.
What to expect:
- Learn how these expectations hold you back from feeling content and proud
- Understand what to do about expectations (from yourself or others)
- Become immune to unfulfilled expectations
