Every time we are introduced to someone new, try to be creative or start a difficult conversation, we take a risk. We feel uncertain and exposed. We feel vulnerable. Most of us try to fight those feelings - we strive to appear perfect. In a powerful new vision, Dr Brené Brown challenges everything we think we know about vulnerability and dispels the widely accepted myth that it's a weakness.
