Personal and work relationships can directly affect a person’s actions and decision-making. One person can be a mother, a sister, a grandmother, a co-worker, a boss, and/or a combination of any of these. These relationships can frame a person’s total identity. A person who is a parent often chooses to do things in their children’s best interests instead of their own. Relationships aren’t just between people—some relationships with their pets or plants can shape their priorities and provide a source of belonging and relatedness.
