In this episode, we explore the idea of examining unspoken expectations and obligations within relationships. We realize that constantly doing favors can create resentment and inauthentic connections. We discuss the importance of clear communication and setting boundaries to establish healthier, more supportive relationships.
This episode touches on a few common themes in psychotherapy:
- Codependency: We explore dynamics where people feel overly obligated to meet the needs of others, often at their own expense.
- Boundaries: The conversation highlights the importance of setting boundaries to protect our own well-being and create healthier relationships.
- Communication: Open and honest communication is essential for expressing needs and navigating change within relationships.
- Self-awareness: The episode emphasizes the importance of reflecting on our own patterns of behavior and underlying motivations.
By reevaluating our expectations and communicating openly, we can build more fulfilling and supportive relationships.
