Trust Me

June 29, 2026 · 10 min

Show notes

Only 34% of Americans believe most people can be trusted. The average person has about five people they’d truly lean on for anything. And yet Ryan has never met a single person who thought they themselves were untrustworthy. Nobody’s ever said, “Hey, whatever you’re about to tell me, I will absolutely use it against you in three months.” We all think we’re the vault. But almost nobody trusts the vaults around them. The math ain’t mathing.


In this episode, Ryan unpacks the broken trust economy and challenges listeners with two questions: What does your side of the trust equation actually look like? And how much are you letting past hurt determine the quality of your current and future relationships? You’ve got plenty of reasons not to trust people. But you might also have plenty of reasons to try again.
