A Life Built on Lies, Building Trust & Conquering Self-Delusion (w/ Dr Rune)

About this episode

The episode explores the nature of trust, its breakdown, and how rebuilding it can address personal and societal issues.

In this important conversation with Javier (@drrune), we go deep into what trust actually is and why it always seems to be broken, how we may be looking at it the wrong way, and how learning to build trust could potentially fix many problems both in our personal lives and in the structure of society and our communities. Part 2 coming soon. You can find Javier on Instagram (@dr_rune) Tiktok ( @drrune ) or read his blog posts at Hive ( @drrune ).
