Publisher's Summary

Most relationship problems are essentially trust issues, explains psychotherapist David Richo. Whether it's fear of commitment, insecurity, jealousy, or a tendency to be controlling, the real obstacle is a fundamental lack of trust - both in ourselves and in our partner. Daring to Trust offers key insights and practical exercises for exploring and addressing our trust issues in relationships. Topics include:

  • How we learn early in life to trust others (or not to trust them)
  • Why we fear trusting
  • Developing greater trust in ourselves as the basis for trusting others
  • How to know if someone is trustworthy
  • Nave trust vs. healthy, adult trust
  • What to do when trust is broken

Ultimately, Richo explains, we must develop trust in four directions: toward ourselves, toward others, toward life as it is, and toward a higher power or spiritual path. These four types of trust are not only the basis of healthy relationships, they are also the foundation of emotional well-being and freedom from fear.

WOW!

All I can say is, invest the 9 hours of this book. It was eye opening and touched on so many parts of someone’s life that it’s truly a life altering book for how you view yourself and your relationships with everyone in your life.

One of the best books I've heard in a while

This book is so informative, with terminology that the lay person can easily understand, presented in a thoughtful way. I plan on listening to it again and again.

Great insight into how our experiences shape us

Helps one learn from their past experiences and how to use that to ones benefit by not shaming or blaming yourself but by using it to help you in your future.

Narrator’s voice very calming

Great book, thank you

loved it! found many useful pieces of information and quite a few aha moments. I have to share love with the little girl inside of me at many more ages than I already have. The work we have before us on this journey of life is well worth reconnection with ourselves.

Another Life Changer

I just finished this book. He is telling about his own inexplicable experiences from the universe, how it lines things up, sends us messages, and we must never doubt that we are loved because these forces ARE trust. A higher power loves us enough to communicate with us. I'm not religious jut cannot deny this. I like that. I've never thought about it this way. We must trust we will always be okay. Many layers here that illuminated and bettered me.
