The Truth About Being Bulletproof: Why Strength Starts with Vulnerability


Listen Later

In this raw, unfiltered episode of Bulletproof Cyber, Dr. Eric Cole opens up like never before. After a painful medical emergency and a night spent in the ER, Dr. Cole steps into the studio to share one of the most important truths we often forget: being bulletproof isn’t about pretending to be invincible—it’s about being real, honest, and human.

With vulnerability and humility, Dr. Cole breaks down the dangerous belief systems that many high achievers fall into—like thinking that admitting weakness makes you less trustworthy or that pushing through pain proves your strength. He challenges listeners to question long-held personal beliefs, prioritize their health, and lean into their humanity. Most importantly, he explains how true leadership comes not from hiding your challenges, but from having the courage to share them.

This episode isn’t about cybersecurity tactics. It’s about securing you—your health, your mindset, your relationships, and your life.

Whether you're a CEO, a CISO, or someone grinding behind the scenes, this is your reminder that your well-being is non-negotiable. Vulnerability doesn’t make you weak—it makes you bulletproof.
