About this episode
The episode explores the complexities of loving someone while struggling with trust issues.

I share about how I approached a relationship I was drawn to, but every time I left, ruminated on the conversation, questioned myself, and questioned them, and what I decided to do about it. I also explore why this love/don't trust dynamic might be appealing based on early relational experiences. This one is not to be missed!
