Are you waiting for someone to change? Expecting a relationship to finally fill that emptiness inside?
You're blocking love. And you don't even know it.
Most of us grew up without a manual on how to actually build a relationship. We watched dysfunction. We learned to attach instead of love. We created expectations that keep us stuck.
And here's the kicker: nothing outside of you will ever fill you up.
In this episode, Tracy explores:
* Why your childhood conditioning blocks your ability to love as an adult
* How expectations and entitlement destroy intimacy
* The difference between living in reality versus fantasy about relationships
* Why perfection is just another way of avoiding yourself
* Her own mother as a mirror for what blocking love looks like
* How to stop manipulating situations to get what you want
* The four key steps to opening yourself to real love
"Expectations block love. Every sense of entitlement you have blocks love." ~ Tracy Crossley
This is part one of two. If you keep ending up in the same relationship patterns and can't figure out why—this is your wake-up call.

Are you exhausted from forcing everything to happen? From pushing through goals that leave you feeling empty once you reach them?
Most avoidants live like they're perpetually on fire—reacting, controlling, forcing outcomes because "easy" feels dangerous. But here's the thing: all that forcing keeps you from the very flow state that would actually get you where you want to go.
In this episode, Tracy explores:
* Why ease feels dangerous when you're avoidant
* The difference between forcing and allowing
* How perfectionism keeps you stuck in empty cycles
* Sitting with discomfort instead of reacting
* Recognizing when you're escaping versus flowing
"When you're forcing, you're coming from a state of lack. You can't force a healthy relationship. You can't force anything meaningful. But we keep trying because we're afraid to let go of the false building we've created that everyone can admire." ~ Tracy Crossley
