Having unrealistic expectations is similar to giving someone a test and believing they will pass it without ever having learned the material. You are subconsciously setting your teams, your friends, and your romantic partners up for failure when you do this.

In this episode, we’ll talk about unrealistic expectations and the damage they cause in relationships as well as some antidotes to help you navigate setting and communicating proper expectations.
