Yes, it is called amends. And that means demonstrating a real change, not just working on yourself so that you can feel better.
That means showing up when you say you will and doing what you say you are going to do.And sometimes it takes years of doing that.
Then again, maybe they will never trust you and you'll have to be OK with that.
