Vulnerability is Power


Listen Later

Vulnerability is power, and it creates so much freedom if we allow ourselves to open up and reveal ourselves to others.

I've experienced so much freedom to fully be myself, because I'm comfortable with my vulnerabilities. I don't need to act perfect all the time and exhaust myself by wearing a mask, almost my entire life I've lived in a prison of perfectionism prison where I felt like I needed to look a certain way, talk a certain way and pursue a certain life and everything had to be perfect, or I never be accepted in the world.

But now I realize that greatness is not about being perfect. But it's about being yourself and being okay with all of your beautiful imperfections. It's allowing yourself to be vulnerable in those moments, and because vulnerability creates so much more trust and connection community, love and unity, and it allows people to see you for who you are, and not just see you as some perfect person, that is unattainable in their own life.

Allow yourself to be vulnerable in your life, open up about the things with your friends and family, share the things that you were afraid of the things that scare you putting yourself out there is scary.

Being vulnerable is about facing the things that terrify you, because life isn't about dancing when no one is watching. Life is about expressing yourself so others can dance with you!
