How to Trust Yourself Again After Choosing the Wrong Person (Ep 119)

You chose him. You stayed. Maybe you even saw some of the red flags.

So now you're wondering: How did I get this so wrong—and can I trust myself not to do it again?

Following her episode on Choosing Well, psychologist Dr. Nicole Monteiro turns the conversation backward: What happens when you're carrying shame about a relationship choice you regret?

Dr. Nicole explores why intelligent, capable women can explain away what they see, choose potential over patterns, mistake familiarity for chemistry, and over-function enough to keep a struggling relationship going.

You'll also learn why regret is different from shame, why understanding someone's behavior doesn't obligate you to live with it, and what rebuilding self-trust actually requires.

Because self-trust isn't believing you'll never make another mistake.

It's trusting yourself to respond when reality gives you new information.
