You left the relationship. You're rebuilding your life. You're even trying to reconnect with friends.
So why does every interaction leave you questioning everything?
In this Friday Coaching Corner, I answer a listener question from a survivor who wants connection but finds herself constantly analyzing whether people are genuine, worrying about how she showed up, and struggling to trust her own judgment.
Questions We'll Explore
- How do I know the difference between discernment and hypervigilance?
- Why do I replay conversations and judge myself so harshly afterward?
- How do I rebuild trust without becoming naive?
We'll talk about the impact of coercive control and isolation on trust, why your nervous system may still be scanning for danger, and how trust is rebuilt one safe relationship at a time.
