The Trust Fall: When Common Sense Takes a Nosedive

Description

We all want to believe that the people we trust will catch us. But what happens when they don’t? In this no-nonsense, witty guide, Prof Tahira Yousaf, PhD & Zahra Habib take you through the rollercoaster ride of trust—how we give it, why we misplace it, and how to protect it from those who don’t deserve it.

From identifying manipulative personalities to rebuilding trust after betrayal, this book dives deep into the psychology behind our decisions, uncovering the hidden triggers and emotional traps that make trusting the wrong people seem like common sense. Whether it’s a friend, partner, colleague, or even yourself, The Trust Fall helps you catch yourself first when life’s trust falls don’t go as planned.

With bold commentary, bite-sized insights, and practical advice, this book will teach you how to:

• Spot toxic personalities before they wreak havoc on your life.
• Rebuild trust in a healthy way, whether with others or within yourself.
• Set boundaries and protect your emotional well-being—without becoming cynical.

Because trust isn’t just a leap of faith. It’s a choice. And the more you know, the smarter that choice becomes.
