Vulnerability is a word that, for many people, suggests weakness, letting your guard down and leaving yourself open to attack. But that understanding might just be based on a limited response, a rigid and protective sense of self in the world. What if we operated from openness, from connecting first to our own insecurities and our profound need to connect with others, and reached out from that place? Join us for a spirited discussion of how being vulnerable might actually lead us to being stronger.
