We’ve talked a ton about vulnerability on this podcast and in the blog. I had thought we did a podcast on the topic, but I did a search, and nope, no podcast or blog article posted that had it titled. So, being inspired by this Twitter post by Brene’ Brown and video buy former All Blacks Coach Sir Stephen Hansen, today we dig into being vulnerable; what it has taught me, and how it may be useful during current times.

Some incredibly powerful nuggets by Mr. Hansen:
“We don’t give those that are struggling permission to say they are struggling.”
“We think we have to hide that we are struggling and as a result it bottles up.”
“Allow them to be vulnerable. It takes a lot to be vulnerable and how people react to your vulnerability is going to allow you to do it again or shut you down.”
