The Power of Vulnerability

I attended a nursing conference last week and the theme was integrative health.  One of the presenters spoke of Brene Brown and the power of vulnerability. Brown is a researcher who studied Connection.  I heard this title and it peaked my interest.  I often struggle with this concept and it made me want to learn more.  I found her Ted Talk and I want to share it with you.
Brene speaks of courage as coming from the heart.  She speaks of imperfection, of being kind to yourself, and the importance of connection.  Brown made a statement about connection that I felt was profound.  She said, "Connection is the power to let go of who you think you should be."  WOW! That is a powerful statement.
If you have some time, check out this Tedx.  She speaks from the heart and with humor.
