Stop Expecting You from Other People!

Ever catch yourself getting irritated because someone doesn’t think, talk, or act like you?  Surprise! That’s not a character flaw on their part—it’s just reality.
In this episode, your host Anne Bonney (https://YourChangeSpeaker.com) drops a truth bomb you didn’t know you needed:

 Stop expecting you from other people.

We're diving into the emotional intelligence mindset shift that can make your life so much less frustrating and your relationships a whole lot stronger. Spoiler: the goal isn’t sameness—it’s curiosity.

Anne unpacks why differences aren’t annoying—they’re essential. She offers practical ways to pause the judgment, ditch the assumptions, and start asking better questions.  Instead of thinking “Why would they do that?!” it becomes “What might make them see things this way?”
 That shift? It's a game-changer for connection, leadership, and even your inner peace.

In this episode, you’ll learn:

• Why expecting yourself from other people sets you up to be let down
• How to reframe differences as opportunities, not obstacles 
• Simple mindset tweaks to create more harmony (at work, home, and traffic jams) 
• How emotional intelligence builds belonging—and why that matters now more than ever 

Next week we will dive deeper with a jaw-dropping interview with Ken Hartley—a magician, speaker, and former music minister who literally reinvented his life at 50. (You won’t believe what made him finally step into his purpose—and how EQ played a huge part.)
