Self-Trust vs. Self-Deception

from The Science Help Show

Not all "trusting yourself" is healthy. In this episode, we draw the line between real self-trust (built through data, integrity, and honest course-correction) and self-deception (built through avoidance, ego protection, and confirmation bias). The hard truth? Smart, high-performing people are often the most vulnerable to this. If you've ever wondered whether you're backing yourself — or just protecting your identity — this conversation might hit closer than you expect.
