We all love a good hero's journey story... in fact the movies and books you love are typically based on this story type, and who doesn't love a good hero.

You may be afraid to share your authentic story from your heart because you are scared your vulnerability will lead to judgement. But, what if vulnerability is sexy and the only way to connect with others.
