Embracing the Super Powers of Vulnerability and Feeling
I trust this Insight finds you well. Thank you for the kind and supportive responses to last month's Insight; it's an honour to know they are resonating with you.
This month I write to you from the heart of Western Australia, where the bush flowers are in full blossom and nature is once again reflecting the beauty of change. What may appear one day as a simple green weed transforms the next into a flurry of colour, texture and beauty. It’s a reminder that change is often subtle and under the surface, yet with time, it reveals astonishing growth.
Life, like nature, encourages us to step into new territories, lean into uncertainties and embrace vulnerabilities and change. Over the years, I’ve shared how vulnerability is often misunderstood—it is seen as weakness, being over emotional or a sign of "not coping." But in truth, vulnerability is a profound superpower. It’s through our willingness to be open and authentic that we can experience deep connection—with ourselves and others. Vulnerability allows barriers to dissolve, creating space for trust, honesty and more nourishing relationships.
Being vulnerable, though, often means opening another hidden power, the deeply guarded "feeling" part of ourselves. For many, this can feel uncomfortable, even frightening. But I’ve seen time and time again—both in my personal journey and with clients—how embracing vulnerability serves as a powerful catalyst for authentic living and success. The very thing we fear often falls away, replaced by strength and clarity that allows us to tap into our deeper truths and creativity.
How do you feel about welcoming vulnerability into your life?
What creative inspirations do you perhaps keep ignoring or pushing down?
Feeling deeply and the practice of allowing ourselves to experience our emotions and their effect on our physical body as a way of gauging life and its decisions, is a new and necessary ground for many. In a world that encourages logic and control, opening our emotional bodies and trusting our intuitive flow in our decision making can feel unfamiliar. Sometimes even seen as "out there" or "woo woo." Yet the world is awakening that within this openness lies tremendous power, a power that brings us closer to our essence and creates a sense of freedom and authenticity which is is both liberating and transformative.
As I watch nature bloom around me, I am reminded that just as flowers need time, light and care to reveal their beauty, so too do we. By allowing ourselves to be vulnerable and open to life's rhythms, we too blossom into our full potential. In doing so, we align more deeply with our purpose, and what once felt like uncertainty or fear transcends into strength and grace.
