#3 What did you expect? - Uncovering your hidden expectations of Motherhood

My Motherhood with Beck Stanton

Apr 19 2023 • 47 mins

The way we go into something almost always determines how we feel about about it afterwards. Our expectations acknowledged and unacknowledged have a huge impact on our overall sense of how motherhood is going, what its like for each of us and what steps we should take moving forward.

This week we think about:
1. How we create our expectations.
2. Some areas of motherhood where we may have expectations
3. What happens when our expectations aren't realised.

Get your own copy of the expectations worksheet here so you can do the work in your own life. It includes BONUS prompts for expectations you have of your co-parent/partner and of your child.

🍇To talk about with your partner.
Download the worksheet and both individually write down your expectations. Come back together to share, listen and discuss any areas of alignment and incongruence.
