This week, we’re jumping back to something we touched on briefly during last week’s show about expectations and we’re making it the focus of today’s conversation. It’s what happens to us when we say yes to someone else. Because too often, especially for those of us who are people pleasers (like we know we are), we’re always inclined to say yes to everyone around us even when we might not have the time or the ability or the interest in doing something for someone else. And when we say yes to someone else, we’re actually saying no to ourselves. So today’s conversation is focused on how to recognize and change that behavior.

LIFE UNfiltered is something different. Something real. Something honest. And something relatable. It’s a talk show that celebrates the messy, perfectly imperfect parts of life. Every Sunday from 11:30AM until noon, show hosts author & syndicated columnist Lisa Sugarman and licensed psychotherapist Debra Gansenberg, MSW, LICSW talk about the everyday issues that are affecting them as moms, wives, working professionals, and friends. Gansenberg, the mom of three boys, and Sugarman, the mom of two daughters, take the theme from their latest book “How To Raise Perfectly Imperfect Kids And Be Ok With It,” and apply it to every aspect of life from raising kids and marriage to work and self-care and everything in between. They talk, unfiltered, about all the stuff that’s keeping you up at night. And here’s the thing… they actually give you permission to make mistakes and drop some balls. AND be ok with it.

Each week, Lisa and Debra focus on topics that affect all of us and have open, honest conversations about the good, the bad, the ugly, and all the moving parts that make up our day-to-day lives. They incorporate a mix of clinical advice, stories, tips, proven strategies from the trenches AND the therapy couch, and a bunch of laughs, to help you find the magic within life’s screwups.
