Have you ever had family member who’s going through a hard time? Did you think you knew exactly what they needed to do in order to solve the problem? How well did that go over? I’m guessing, not so great. Many times, family members want to be helpful, yet they confuse their own desires with what’s best for an individual going through a crisis. They often want the outcome that seems the least messy. There’s just one problem—it rarely works. When you’re the one facing a tough situation or need time to heal, others’ expectations can feel like enormous pressure. Tune in as I coach Raj to listen to the sound of his own heart above the voices of his family and then communicate it clearly and compassionately to them.
