Most people don't trust themselves, constantly seeking external validation and living unhappy lives despite trying to please everyone around them.
• Self-trust means being comfortable with who you are rather than constantly seeking approval
• When you don't trust yourself, you give up command of your life and surrender your agency
• Setting boundaries aligns with self-trust and allows you to identify who respects you
• Family relationships often challenge our self-trust when we're expected to compromise our needs
• Trusting yourself leads to authentic relationships rather than people-pleasing interactions
• The Three A's for building self-trust: Awareness, Alignment, and Action
• Daily practices for strengthening self-trust include quiet reflection, setting boundaries, and celebrating wins
