YMM #023 The Power of Expectations For Good (and Bad) In Your Marriage!

Hey gang ... 

Welcome to Your Marriage Matterz podcast #023 The Power of Expectations For Good (and Bad) In Your Marriage! In this episode we are beginning to unpack the role that marital expectations play for good, and bad, in our marriages!

All of our expectations come from somewhere ... family, culture, past relationships, friends and on and on. Our job is to decide if the expectations are good, reasonable, add to our marriage(or take away) and learn to communicate them effectively to each other. 

From there we really want to focus on keeping the good stuff, add to it creative ideas to make them even better and create shared expectations. And, we always want to challenge the status quo to see if even our good expectations can be even better. 

In the next few podcasts we are going to tackle expectations regarding things like 

• Sex ... yes we will tackle this one!
• Money ... uh oh! 
• Careers
• Family and friends
• Roles and responsibilities
• And others (if you have an idea we would love to hear from you!)

So, get out your notepads! Here we go ...
