Releasing Expectations
Hey friends,
The more time I spend away from home the more expectations I am learning to let go of.
Growing up in the same environment, community and culture for 18 years I subconsciously took on a lot of expectations and never had anything to challenge them or question them.
So many preconceived assumptions of what career I needed study for, what age it is acceptable to be married and have children, what I should be spending my time, money and energy doing, etc.
The longer I am away, the more I am releasing myself of those expectations and allowing myself to experience things as they come.
Seeing first hand how other cultures have their own versions of society expectations makes me really question ours.
Is there anything that you are doing purely out of the expectations of your community?
If so I hope you have the courage to step out and change your narrative.
All my love,
Kaila 💌
