“Vulnerability is not winning or losing; it's having the courage to show up and be seen when we have no control over the outcome.”

Simplified Meaning:
Being vulnerable means allowing ourselves to be seen and revealing our true feelings, even when we are unsure of what will happen next. It’s not about whether we win or lose; it’s about having the bravery to express ourselves honestly. Imagine you are an artist sharing your artwork for the first time. You don't know if people will love it or criticize it, but you still gather your courage to show your work. This act of showing up, despite the uncertainty, is vulnerability. It takes strength to be open, and through this, we build deeper connections and grow personally. In everyday life, being vulnerable can help us form stronger relationships and become more authentic individuals because we are honest about who we are.
