I don't think trust is something you can just decide to do. It's like loving someone or believing something. You either trust them or you don't.

Is your advice to pretend you trust them? Some kind of "fake it til you make it" approach?

You can work on it. Trust people with small things (or at least bite your tongue while they do it their way). Observe that nothing goes wrong. Trust more.
