A Question of Trust with psychoanalyst Dr Stephen Blumenthal

This is our first listener requested episode. "Joanne" (not her real name) asked us if we could do an episode on trust, after her husband had an affair. Although Joanne asked some specific questions ("how do I get the trust back/is it good to talk about it"), Dr Blumenthal and I discuss this but also what trust is at its core, beyond romantic relationships, what it means to trust, how do we trust, is it necessary to trust someone to love them, and how to get trust back when it's been lost.

Dr Blumenthal spoke so eloquently in series 2, on Intimacy, and that is a great companion piece to this one.
