Rebuilding Self-Trust After Self-Abandonment
By Jessica Hicks, Truth Love and Connection
Many sensitive adults grew up learning to silence themselves—to please others, to avoid conflict, or simply to stay safe. Over time, this can lead to a deep disconnection from your own inner voice. You may find yourself doubting your needs, your instincts, or your worth.
Rebuilding self-trust is a return to your inner home. It starts with listening—really listening—to the whispers of your heart and body. It’s about recognizing the times you’ve abandoned yourself not with blame, but with understanding. And it’s about practicing new choices, little by little, that affirm: I matter. My needs are valid. I trust myself to care for me.
This healing process takes time. It asks for tenderness and courage. But every small moment of honoring your truth strengthens the bridge back to your authentic self.
Rebuild your inner foundation with our Navigating Sensitivity Mastery Program, a guided path for reconnecting with your authentic voice and reclaiming self-trust. Support your journey with “The Quiet Knowing Within” meditation—a gentle reminder that your inner guidance is always available.
