"The Price of Invulnerability"

I cannot overstate the profound impact of this video on the benefit of being vulnerable. This is compelling & life-change information for anyone. Here is the synopsis of the TED talk by Dr. Brene' Brown:

"In our anxious world, we often protect ourselves by closing off parts of our lives that leave us feeling most vulnerable. Yet invulnerability has a price. When we knowingly or unknowingly numb ourselves to what we sense threatens us, we sacrifice an essential tool for navigating uncertain times -- joy."

This talk will explore how and why fear and collective scarcity has profoundly dangerous consequences on how we live, love, parent, work and engage in relationships -- and how simple acts can restore our sense of purpose and meaning.
