Publisher's summary

The number one reason why you have trust issues, and why feeling messed up doesn’t mean you’ll never find real love.

Let’s face it - we’re all messed up. Unless you’ve never been in a relationship before or you don’t have questionable family dynamics, chances are that some type of betrayal has happened in your life.

So, what do we do about such problems?

We usually dump all of that baggage on people who have nothing to do with our screwed up past.

Raise your hand if you’ve been betrayed before, and you’re taking it out on your current partner now.

You’re not alone!

Betrayal trauma makes us many unpleasant things - jealous, anxious, whiny, needy, insecure.

Trust issues are detrimental for one more key reason: self-sabotage. You don’t want to be hurt ever again, which is why you do your best to kill the potential for something serious before it has even happened.

Sound familiar?

Do you envision yourself dying alone, surrounded by a thousand cats? Your outcome doesn’t have to be this grim.

Betrayal trauma hurts, whether it has been inflicted on you by a parent, a friend, or a romantic partner. This, however, doesn’t mean you’ll never get over it or that you’ll never discover real love.

In Trust Issues in Relationships, you will discover:

  • Why trusting is so hard but is also the greatest thing on earth
  • The number one reason why you have trust issues and what you can do to fix it
  • The F-word in the world of betrayal trauma (that stands for forgiveness, get your mind out of the gutter!)
  • Why sweeping trauma under the carpet never works, and why you have to face your issues
  • Anxious attachment and how it can kill a good relationship
  • One exercise psychologists believe is vital for building trust with your partner
  • The beauty of vulnerability and openness
  • The 10 signs your trust issues have really messed you up
  • And much more...

Right now, it may seem as if the hurt is never going to end. After all, you’ve been cheated so many times in the past that history is bound to repeat itself, isn’t it?

Not if you break the vicious cycle.

Understand that you have agency and can say: “Enough!” Being your own advocate and taking charge can help you understand insecurities, work through past trauma, and get your partner involved in the process.

You deserve love and can make wholesomeness happen, no matter how damaged you’ve been before.

Putting an end to trust issues depends on your inner motivation. If you’re ready to make the switch to happiness and fulfillment, scroll up and click the “buy now” button.

GREAT BOOK

This audiobook delves deeply into the causes of trust problems on both a personal and a general level. Even if you do not have trust difficulties, this is a fantastic book. Excellent pointers and counsel on how to develop your connections and interact with others more. It was enjoyable to read and well-written. I really enjoyed having the narration in my library; it was excellent.

Must listen

First, let me just say that Kara Lawrence is incredible. I had listened to another title by her, and had to get this one. Trust issues are very hard to overcome, but Kara helps you break through all your relationship issues... The ones coming from inside you... So you can mend yourself and have a healthy relationship.

This author is authentic and she seemed to speak from the heart right to me. I feel like she understands all my issues. Her books have helped me see that I can overcome my inability to fully trust someone else with my heart.

I'm not 100% there yet, but with this book I'm a lot closer. I can already see a few bricks fall out of the wall I've put around my heart. I hope my partner will notice the difference.

If you have been betrayed and heartbroken, don't let it bleed into your future relationship. This audiobook will help.

If you're struggling with trust issues, this guide offers a realistic and comforting path to healing and finding real love.

Good for both sides!

I was the one having trust issues but I also had my partner listen to this audiobook so he could better understand what I was dealing with. You might find yourself in this book and if so you'll have the opportunity to let go of that weight of anxiousness and mistrust behind you.
