We often think of trust as a binary — either you have it, or you don’t. Either it’s there, or it isn’t. Like a light switch, we think trust is either “on” or “off,” with nothing in between. This extreme view of trust leads to some extreme behaviors. With a single violation, we can easily write off the possibility of trusting a person ever again. In this episode, Kari and Paul explore a more nuanced approach to trust that serves us in building lasting, authentic, trusting relationships.
In This Episode:
00:55 — The all-or-nothing myth about trust
02:57 — The price of not being related to the anatomy of trust

13:52 — How to start conversations for trust

“Most of us take trust for granted—because we don’t really know how it works.”
