OPC 022: How to Let Go of Unrealistic Expectations

We all have unrealistic expectations. What are yours?

These expectations can chip away at relationships, keep us from reaching our goals, and create unhealthy patterns and behaviors in our lives. When we or someone else falls short, we draw false conclusions, and if we’re not careful, unrealistic expectations can lead to resentment.

So how do we relinquish unrealistic expectations? In this Omar Pinto Coaching Podcast, the group helped Travis. Coming to terms about his unrealistic expectations in regards to his alcoholic father, Travis’s anger and resentment has caused him to create distance until he gets stronger in his own sobriety. 

The group also helped Simon. Navigating the world as an empath, Simon asks the group for help with connecting to his feelings in front of people, bringing down his walls, and becoming vulnerable. As empaths, when we realize how sensitive we are, we avoid people, situations, and can lose trust with ourselves and our peers. 

In this Omar Pinto Coaching Podcast, you’ll learn:

• Examples of unrealistic expectations and how they can contribute to our relapse process
• How unrealistic expectations can contribute to the negative beliefs we have about ourselves
• Characteristics of empaths
• How to navigate the world as an empath and use it to our advantage
