How To Build Trust
“Words and actions are the ultimate way to build trust in your relationship.”
— Allison Villa
What’s the ultimate make-or-break when it comes to enjoying a healthy and successful relationship?
Trust.
Trust is absolutely essential for maintaining a strong and connected bond with your partner. It’s the foundation to every relationship, and small cracks in that foundation can add up over time... and eventually cause your couple to crumble.
Trust isn’t only broken through major betrayals, such as extramarital affairs or serious lies about finances.
In fact, a partner doesn’t need to deliberately lie in order to damage trust. It may also be eroded through small, frequent micro-moments, such as promising to sign the kids up for a class and then forgetting, making other plans on a date night, or straying from an agreed-upon parenting technique.
Losing trust in your partner can make you feel less confident about your couple. Rebuilding that trust can help you feel more safe and secure with one another. This week, I am sharing how trust can be damaged — and built up — in your relationship, with practical examples and one powerful action item!
