Summary
Everyone’s talking about the trust recession — the collective pulling back from investing in coaches, programs and mentors. And the coaching industry has an explanation for it. Too many unqualified voices entered the space. Promises were made that weren't kept. People got burned and stopped buying. And while that's part of the story — it's not the whole story. In this solo episode of HER Extraordinary LIFE By Design, Leslie Gaudet offers a reframe that the trust recession isn't about coaches. It's about you. Specifically — it's about what high-achieving women decide about themselves in the aftermath of a disappointing experience with coaching, personal development or any investment in their own growth. The quiet verdict you reached about your own judgment. And the research loop you've been running ever since, not because you need more information, but because you stopped trusting the woman doing the discerning. This episode examines what's actually driving the hesitation, what it's been costing you in ways that don't show up on any spreadsheet, and what rebuilding self-trust actually requires — including the part most conversations about self-trust and decision making skip right over entirely. If you've been sitting on the fence about investing in yourself, stuck in the research loop, or wondering whether you can trust your own judgment — this episode is for you. ******************************************************************** Connect with me: https://linktr.ee/herextraordinarylifebydesign [email protected] ******************************************************************** Monthly Gathering: I've been sitting on an idea for how to create a space where women can finally show up without the filter, without the performance, and without wonderin…
