Show Notes Chapter Markers

One of the many revelations I had while in recovery is that I had been trusting untrustworthy people my entire life. These people had proven to me time and time again that they were not to be trusted and when they broke my trust I would inevitably get upset over it. When I eventually learned to find my part in things, I realized I was the one at fault- for continuing to trust untrustworthy people! This week’s episode 242 of the Fragmented to Whole Podcast is about how to stop trusting untrustworthy people and start trusting yourself!

In this episode of the Fragmented to Whole Podcast, I’m sharing examples from my life where I got burned for continuing to trust people who had already shown me that they were untrustworthy and how building self-trust was the foundation that helped me come out of this harmful behavior pattern. I also share the amazing benefits that self-trust has given me.


Trust is something that can only be built over time. We can only determine if someone is trustworthy by seeing their continued patterns of behavior.

Be sure to tune in to all the episodes to receive tons of practical tips on living a more whole life and to hear even more about the points outlined above.
