Episode 186: Wanting vs Yearning

In this episode, I dive deep into the poignant distinction between wanting and yearning, particularly in the context of wedding planning.It’s easy to get caught up in the myriad of choices that come with planning a wedding – from venues to dress styles to cake designs. The pressure from family, friends, and societal expectations can amplify the stress, causing decision fatigue and overwhelming emotions. Many brides often find themselves in a whirlwind of preferences that are more about fulfilling external narratives than about their own true desires.I encourage brides to identify their core yearnings, such as the desire to feel truly seen or to create moments of genuine connection with loved ones. This introspection can guide the planning process in a way that promotes greater joy and satisfaction.What you’ll learn from this episode:Understanding wanting vs yearningIdentifying your deeper yearningsEmbracing your authentic choicesFeatured on the show:Follow me on Instagram to learn more about navigating your wedding with grace and ease: https://www.instagram.com/karaghassabeh/Check out **The Bridal Prep Academy:** https://karamaureen.comLet’s connect on Facebook: https://www.facebook.com/KaraMaureenBridalCoachingGet your copy of the book, **Whispers to a Bride:**https://www.amazon.com/Whispers-Bride-handle-stress-drama/dp/B0BCRXBQFN/ref=sr_1_1?crid=1UXWJVJOF3MNI&keywords=whispers+to+a+bride&qid=1662643892&sprefix=whispers+to+a+bride%2Caps%2C141&sr=8-1
