This episode with Catherine Quiring examines self-trust as the cornerstone of psychological well-being and authentic living. Grounded in Internal Family Systems (IFS) and research on interoception and self-compassion, Catherine explains how people lose trust in themselves under authoritarian systems or through people-pleasing patterns, and how to rebuild it step by step. Catherine delves into the developmental stages of self-trust through our lifetime. Listeners will gain practical insights into reconnecting with their inner compass, regulating emotions, and cultivating resilience so they can move through life with clarity and confidence.
