“I don’t think that trust is something that should be easily bestowed. It needs time to build. We have to see one another in different situations and circumstances, in stress or turmoil, and how they and I respond in those moments. All that stuff needs time to play out, and it evolves as we get to know people,” says Zovig Garboushian.

Quotes
- “I try to practice a wait-and-see attitude… I don’t think trust is something that should be easily bestowed. It needs time to build. We have to see one another in different situations and circumstances, in stress or turmoil, and how they and I respond in those moments. All that stuff needs time to play out, and it evolves as we get to know people.” (02:28 | Zovig Garboushian)
- “When we have trust in ourselves, we are free to fail.” (21:48 | Zovig Garboushian)
- “When it comes to thinking about trust in ourselves, credibility is about knowing who we are and being a credible source of truth for ourselves.” (25:03 | Zovig Garboushian)
- “The world will always tell us who it thinks we are and who it thinks we should be. We are in charge of wading through that information to identify who we are in this world, regardless of what others say or think. And the only way to do that is to explore ourselves, to find out who we are.” (25:25 | Zovig Garboushian)
- “Trusting people from the beginning, I think, is a little irresponsible. We need to have discernment about how we engage with people, who we engage with, who we put our energy into, who we put our faith, hope, and trust into. We have to be discerning; that’s part of self-care. But when we trust ourselves, we can exercise more choice. We feel freer to experiment and take risks. And, so importantly, we learn to let things go more easily. When we trust ourselves, others trust us. And that is when things really start to get good.” (30:07 | Zovig Garboushian)
