You are looking for that particular someone.

Or you are looking for “your People”.

Or you are looking for a coach, a counsellor, a mentor, …

How do you choose and what do you look for?

How do you know that they are trustworthy?

This is important for any business or other relationship: TRUST!

Research has shown that mutually supportive relationships are key to stress reduction and resilience. 

The four qualities, AUTHENTICITY, INTEGRITY, AUTHORITY, and EMPATHY are key in making decisions when to hire someone, when to partner with someone and when, in my view, to add someone to your very small “close friend” or personal partner list.

Trust needs to be given with eyes wide open, well-earned, and vetted in partnerships and other business relationships.

When you know your strengths, go in the opposite direction for growth.
