144: Vulnerability: Why is this such a buzzword right now?
One of the biggest buzzwords I see floating around is vulnerability.
When I got into the online space almost a decade ago it was at a moment in my life where I felt most vulnerable.
Listen now
But I had never shown vulnerability in my life.
And many of us don’t want to discuss shame or vulnerability. That’s because we just want to be bottom-lined: “Just tell me what to do.”
There’s no bypassing vulnerability.
This fake, discounted vulnerability that’s out there has skewed what doing some of this work on ourselves really means.
A decade ago when I decided to change careers, it was at a time when I had already hit rock bottom.
I was just starting to come up from ground zero and was sharing vulnerable things. In rehab, where I discovered what real vulnerability was, I was given the book The Gifts of Imperfection by Brene Brown. This book taught me the difference between mindset and vulnerability.
Quotes:

I leaned into other humans when I had zero idea how I was gonna get out it, that is true vulnerability.
6:01
What is real vulnerability is in the trenches of it, having no idea how the f*ck you’re gonna get out of it and saying to another human being ‘I need help.’
9:12
Leaning into that vulnerability is what made that business successful and continues to to this day, but there was this missing gap in my personal life and even with my own children.
11:29
It wasn’t until I started leaning into real vulnerability that everything shifted in my life.
18:33
The virtue of the 3 is authenticity which leads to harmony.
23:17
Detachment is knowing that they have done the work and realizes the health in disassociating their thought life from outcomes.
26:11
A really strong, healthy 6 will move through their lives with purpose and great strength, and they help so many of us with their wisdom and collaboration.
31:14
When an 8 falls hard enough, we become vulnerable and open ourselves up to huge, tender hearts that have been buried for so long.
