Brené Brown defines vulnerability as "the birthplace of love, belonging, joy, courage, empathy, and creativity".Would you agree? How do you define vulnerability? Do you feel like it helps you live better or does it just cause you more pain?It's not about winning or losing. It's about having the courage to show up when you can't control the outcome or what others make of your emotions. Ouch. That's a big one. Not being able to control the outcome applies to pretty much everything in life.In this episode, Allison and Lucia discuss how, in a time where public shaming, bullying, and invoking fear in others is rampant on social media and in person, vulnerability is more necessary than ever.Why? Not for the benefit of others, but so that YOU can enjoy life more fully.In this episode we discuss:~Vulnerability in person to person~Vulnerability in person to circumstance~Vulnerability in a conversation ... what works and what shuts it down~Vulnerability in owning your own thoughts, feelings, and stories~Vulnerability and happiness ... what's their relationship?Put on your headphones.
