Maybe it's not relationship problems.
It's feeling of loneliness because I'm still single and the world tells me I shouldn't be and on and on and on.
So everyone has their shit.
And we all walk around with armor, hiding our shit.
But the minute that someone takes down that armor and shares their , everyone else is like, oh my gosh, you have too.
So do I, we can really connect.
And man, that is so true.
And that experience taught me that.
And then in addition to connecting with other people, and Brene Brown, the researcher from Houston who really made vulnerability like a cultural thing, has done such a beautiful job of writing about this benefit of vulnerability, connecting with other people.
Something that I explore in the book that is perhaps a little bit different is it also helps you connect with yourself.
And it helped you have more genuine confidence in yourself.
Because if you're hiding something from yourself, you might intellectually know, but your subconscious, it can discern bullshit from truth.
So if you're pushing this part of yourself away, you can't ever really be confident because you know that you're hiding something.
where if you can get to know all of yourself, including your fears and your doubts, then you can be really confident.
So the example that so many ancient wisdom traditions talk about is what I would argue is the most universal human vulnerability, and that is death.
And we often go through life just pushing death aside, not thinking about death.
And in a way doing that, it puts up this wall to something that is going to happen to all of us.
And if we can just learn to name our fear and to be with it for a little, and perhaps in the company of a friend or therapist or spiritual advisor or counselor, then the edge gets taken off and we can relate to it a little bit differently, which allows us to have more confidence and live more fully.
Um, so I think that that's what I really learned, you know, back to that three-legged stool, the spiritual traditions don't mess around, right?
Like they're not talking about vulnerability in your workplace.
