Not So Great Expectations
from Gen X at 60 · host Jim Boneau & Ken De Loreto
This episode, Jim and Ken walk the tightrope of expectations. When Jim’s birthday plans fell through, the disappointment surfaced an old question: Is having expectations a setup for heartbreak — or are they necessary to feel alive and hopeful?The research backs it up — the happiest people as they age aren’t the ones whose plans always worked. They’re the ones who learned how to hold the plan lightly — and themselves tenderly — when it didn’t.From broad, open dreams to rigid requirements, let's unpack what it means to trust life enough to loosen your grip — without letting go of what you truly want.Leave your thoughts via Fan Mail
