01. What is Self-Trust? 5 Working Definitions (and How I’ve Lived Each One)
Description
In this very first episode of Trust Yourself, I’m sharing the story behind the podcast and 5 dimensions / working definitions of self-trust that have revealed themselves through different seasons of my life. Instead of treating self-trust as a single trait, we’re looking at the many ways it shows up—through fear, resilience, intuition, presence, and the subtle nudges that shape our next steps.
Inside the episode, I share:
- the breakfast-table moment that sparked the idea for this show
- how a childhood gymnastics meet taught me the power of perspective
- what “staying” looked like during a season of mental health struggles in college
- how burnout, resistance, and gut feelings became internal data worth listening to
- what motherhood taught me about overchoice, intuition, and presence
- how creativity, calling, and faith led me toward this next chapter
You’ll also be invited to reflect on your own “evidence list”—the moments and lived experiences that have helped you build self-trust over time.
If this conversation resonates, I’d love for you to subscribe, share it with a friend, or leave a review to help others discover the show.
Thanks for being here at the beginning!
