Although I’ve never met Brené, her book ‘Daring Greatly’ changed my relationships. She taught me that vulnerability is a gift, and serves to deepen your relationships. I used to think that vulnerability was a weakness and felt ashamed when I let people in. I now know that is a great gift to me and the receiver of the truth. It allows both the freedom to be themselves without judgment and fear of rejection.
“Vulnerability sounds like truth and feels like courage. Truth and courage aren’t always comfortable, but they’re never weakness.”
