Gwyneth Paltrow expresses her feelings on betrayal of trust

Paltrow expressed her feelings of disgust and wrath when mentioning the episode of betrayal of trust during her candid conversation with psychotherapist Esther Perel in her Goop podcast. “If I were saying my inner dialogue out loud right now, it would be really shocking,” she said, stating her feelings must be universal despite the particular incident being many years ago. “I was still really caught by the feeling, like, these incredibly big feelings around [it],” the actress mentioned. Analysing the emotions, Perel claimed that someone close to you breaking your trust is one piece, but them acknowledging their actions is a whole other. “The next consequence of the breach of trust or the violation of trust is when I stop trusting myself as a result of it,” the expert stated. Furthermore, she said that even if the person who made you doubt yourself, on whom to trust, has been absent from your life for 10 years, the hurt can stay longer and follow. “I’ve lost my confidence. I’m constantly waiting and watching to see if other people will do something to me because of you,” she said.
