The culture that surrounds us often lacks authenticity. That’s why we need to cultivate vulnerability as an antidote to it. But what is vulnerability, why is it important and how we can practice it ourselves? Basically, vulnerability is daring to show up and let ourselves be seen regardless of success or failure. In other words as Brene Brown shares, it is having the courage to show up and do something even if you fail. When did you last have the courage to show up and let yourself be seen? There are many barriers to vulnerability. But one of the main ways that we can practice vulnerability is sharing our story. Our stories are powerful. In our latest episode, Claire shares her story of being a recovering perfectionist and how pursuing perfection led to a mental breakdown. Her experience taught her many things including seeing the power of God at work in the darkness and how often we need to be with God rather than only do for God. We discuss how we can all take small brave steps to share our stories with others today. Enjoy listening to the final episode of our ‘Speaking honestly about… wholehearted living’ series’.
