Authenticity isn't about having all the answers—it's about leading from truth, presence, and self-trust. But here's the catch: betrayal shatters that self-trust. Whether it's a broken promise from a colleague, a leader who disappeared, or even a moment when you betrayed yourself by ignoring your values, those experiences show up in your leadership.
In this episode, Dr. Debi Silber explores how healing betrayal becomes the pathway to authentic leadership. You'll learn why self-trust is the foundation of trust from others, and walk away with a practical two-minute self-alignment toolyou can use before any key meeting or conversation.
True leaders aren't the ones who've never been betrayed—they're the ones who've rebuilt trust from the inside out and lead with wholeness.
