Ever wondered why trust is so crucial in marriages? Trust isn't just a feeling; it's the bedrock of a stable, secure attachment in marriage. Trust in relationships is about reliability, dependability, and alignment between who someone says they are and who they truly are. It's the foundation for creating a safe space to connect, create, and engage.
We are excited to have Geoff Steurer, a licensed marriage and family therapist who specializes in helping couples repair broken trust, join us for this episode of Marriage IQ. He shares key insights on building trust in committed relationships. He also discusses rebuilding trust when pornography, affairs, or other sexual behaviors have caused betrayal trauma for the spouse. He emphasizes the importance of holding the responsibility on the person who broke the trust, not mutualizing it. Goeff's expertise highlights the need for compassion, accountability, and a willingness to initiate changes for long-term healing. And his unique perspective challenges us to see trust-building as a prrofound opportunity for growth.
