Molly is joined by Tara Gronhovd, the owner of Align Strategy, LLC, a coach and business consultant who helps small businesses, teams, leaders, and individuals transform by leveraging their strengths. Tara discusses the fundamentals of trust and how it is a difficult subject to get our arms around. She explains that trust starts with our own leadership and gives a definition of trust as choosing to risk making something you value vulnerable to someone else’s actions. Tara draws from the book, “The Thin Book of Trust” by Charles Feltman, which is frequently quoted by Brené Brown.
