Trust is often viewed as something you place in others - your partner, your job, your children's well-being - what if the deepest kind of trust isn’t about the outside world at all? In this powerful episode, Gary Zukav invites us to rethink trust as a spiritual practice, one that begins not with certainty about the external, but with radical acceptance of everything - inside and out- as a pathway to our spiritual growth.


Through personal reflection, Gary explains how a frightened part of your personality pursues external power by attempting to control outcomes and avoid pain. But as he shares, true trust is found in releasing that need for control and making the responsible choice to act from a loving part, even while the painful energy of a frightened part is active.


The path to authentic power is paved with trust: trusting that every experience is here to serve your soul’s evolution. This episode offers a profound reminder that choosing love - no matter what - is the most courageous and transformative act we can take.
