Nothing transforms without vulnerability

Nothing has the possibility of growing without first making itself vulnerable. Seeds take a risk as they break open, hoping to germinate. Our muscles must work to the point of failure to repair and regrow stronger. The most important conversations must begin before the outcome is known.

Your growth requires risk; a willingness to step into the unknown without certainty or a guarantee about how things will unfold. Do not confuse the sensations of vulnerability that arise in this space with weakness. These are the sensations of a new type of strength emerging.

As you grow, you will feel exposed. This means something transformational is possible.

How would you treat vulnerability if it were not a sign to stop, but the key ingredient for your growth?
