from Think New Thoughts · host Emily Ricks
Do you ever feel like you're working so hard to keep everyone happy, yet someone always ends up disappointed? Many LDS moms quietly carry the belief that it's their job to manage other people's emotions. That belief creates unrealistic expectations that leave us exhausted, and often resentful. In this episode, you'll discover a simple shift that can free you from the impossible job of keeping everyone happy. As you let go of taking responsibility for everyone else's emotions, you'll also stop placing that responsibility on the people you love. Tune in to learn how refusing to keep doing the "monkey dance" can create more genuine love and connection in your closest relationships.
