Never Enough: How to stop high expectations from killing your happiness (talk)

About the event

We live in a world obsessed with high expectations so it’s no surprise that we’re constantly setting ourselves up for disappointment in our own lives!

The moment we form an expectation about how we want things to turn out, we are creating a compelling story about our ‘happy ending’. And when the reality doesn’t match the happy ending we created in our minds – no matter how good or interesting it might be – it feels like a failure.

This kind of perfectionism seeks validation and control instead of embracing what is and allowing life to surprise us. When we hold rigid expectations, we miss the beauty of the unexpected and the adventure of life’s twists and turns. We close ourselves off to seeing the gifts that are right in front of us because they aren’t wrapped up how we thought they’d be.

In this talk, we will help you to move away from setting high expectations so you can move towards a sense of openness, curiosity and embracing the unexpected.
