In this episode, Lo Wentworth makes the case that self-trust can be built but never borrowed, while confidence can be borrowed, and that self-trust is the root wound underneath low confidence, unworthiness, and the inability to receive. She walks through what receiving actually looks like when you stop keeping a backup plan for everyone, how boundaries rewire your brain and nervous system in real time, and why the "broken robot" no is an act of self-trust. She shares the hiking practice she used to rebuild trust in her intuition by off-roading through the woods until she found water, then borrowing that trust into the rest of her life. She reframes surrender, revisits her ongoing work healing her relationship with the masculine (including the retreat exercise she almost walked out of), and reminds the listener that the only wrong way to live is for someone else. If confidence advice has never quite stuck for you, this episode explains why.Key Topics: Why self-trust must be built and confidence can be borrowed, and how the two work together What receiving actually looks like for the hyper-independent, parentified woman Boundaries as nervous-system rewiring, and the "broken robot" no Rebuilding intuition through hiking and off-roading, then borrowing that trust into daily life Surrender reframed as choosing what you want instead of begging to be saved Feeling your emotions as information rather than numbing them with stoicism Healing the relationship with the masculine in small, self-honoring increments Someone else's reaction to your boundary is a reflection of them, not you Rest and recovery as trust-building, not falling behind Why the only wrong way to live is for someone else RESOURCES:Book the RECODE seesion: HereApply to work 1:1 with Lo:Click Here.Naked Life Confessional Substack and Naked Thoughts: Click HereHave a Dear Lo question: Click Here.Instagram: @lowentworth
