"Vulnerability is not winning or losing; it's having the courage to show up and be seen when we have no control over the outcome. Vulnerability is not weakness it's our greatest measure of courage."—Brené Brown

Brené Brown used her expertise as a researcher in order to find the common denominator in people that achieved true happiness and success in their lives. What she found, was amazing. The people who were studied were well aware of the power of emotion and weren't scared of being vulnerable, they recognized its power, even if they didn't realize it. The path to bliss through vulnerability is a hard one but in the end, it will be worth it. Brené Brown is here to guide you every step of the way.

Recognize the power of emotion and let yourself be vulnerable in order to achieve true bliss! Be brave, be happy.
