Vulnerability is about showing up and being seen. It's tough to do that when we're terrified about what people might see or think.

Love is not something we give or get; it is something that we nurture and grow, a connection that can only be cultivated between two people when it exists within each one of them- we can only love others as much as we love ourselves. Shame, blame, disrespect, betrayal, and the withholding of affection damage the roots from which love grows. Love can only survive these injuries if they are acknowledged, healed, and rare.

We're all so busy chasing the extraordinary that we forget to stop and be grateful for the ordinary.

When we deny our stories, They define us. When we own our stories, we get to write the ending.

If we want greater clarity in our purpose or deeper and more meaningful spiritual lives, vulnerability is the path.

Shame cannot survive being spoken. It cannot survive empathy.

Vulnerability is not weakness.
