Have you ever been hurt emotionally? I know I have, and that makes me want to protect myself. However, if we wall ourselves off, we forfeit the ability to learn and grow, and we become a shell of who we could be. ‘Vulnerable people are authentic, real, genuine, and Honest. When we become vulnerable we are in touch with who we are. We become teachable because we are no longer carried away with ourselves. Vulnerability allows us to learn and grow.’ (J.Maxwell) Let me encourage you to be vulnerable again.
