Trust: Mastering the Four Essential Trusts: Trust in Self, Trust in God, Trust in Others, Trust in Life

Trust is not something we simply do; it is something we become. Iyanla Vanzant argues that the real difficulty many people face is not that others are untrustworthy, but that they have lost faith in themselves. Drawing on stories of broken trust, betrayal and recovery, she lays out four foundations: self-trust, faith in God, trust in other people, and trust in the flow of life. She compares these to breath, and explains that they are learned through lived experience, with the people around us offering chances to practise. Along the way she shows how painful trust violations can open the door to growth and healing. Her practical guidance draws on self-awareness, intuition, honest communication and spiritual practice, and invites readers to face their fears in order to build greater authenticity, resilience, peace and joy.
