How to Build Self Trust and Reclaim Your Confidence
📌 TL;DR — Building Self-Trust
Self-trust is confidence in your own judgment and ability to handle life. It's built by: keeping promises to yourself (start small), honoring your feelings, learning from mistakes without self-attack, and noticing when you've handled hard things before. Broken self-trust often comes from chronic self-abandonment—prioritizing others' approval over your own knowing.
