What does it really mean to keep a promise to yourself—and how do you know if it’s the right promise to begin with? In today’s episode, Emily explores the eastern direction on the Self-Trust Compass: Keep Promises. She offers a nuanced look at follow-through, self-trust, and how to set commitments that align with your values instead of life scripts.

In this episode:

How to use your to-do list as a tool for self-trust (without tying it to your self-worth)

What “completion” looks like when goals shift or no longer fit

Why discernment and radical honesty matter more than blind follow-through

How breaking a promise might actually bring you back into integrity

Practices to connect with your present and future self to build aligned momentum
