Trust can be tough to untangle, it has multiple meanings and like most concepts, has different perspectives for each of us. But we’re going to try it anyway.

We’ll start with the definitions of trust we’re working with (Source: Merriam-Webster), continuing into a couple of recent stories serving as personall reminders. One includes a pair of kite surfers at the beach and how trust appeared from my eye to guide each of them. The second involves an incident in the woods where what I trusted externally failed spectacularly and I was forced to trust within.

Next we’ll break down Brene Brown’s Elements for Trust

B- Boundaries

R- Reliability

A- Accountability

V- Vault

I- Integrity

N- Non-judgement

G- Generosity

From there, we’ll jump into some feedback left when I posted the following questions…

  1. How does someone GAIN your trust?

  2. How does someone LOSE your trust?

  3. What does it mean to trust YOURSELF and what does that look like?
