The Art of Vulnerability

Today we, as humans, are more connected than ever before in our history because technology allows us to interact with people all around the world. However, many people are noticing they are connecting less and feeling less engaged.  

      In our January 24th program, we will begin the new year with practicing the art of vulnerability.  As we work with our clients and client systems the “V” word tends to get a ‘bad rap’ as it is often mistaken as a sign of weakness rather than strength. Self-awareness can enable us to connect with others deeply, use our ability to be vulnerable and create spaces where others are encouraged to do the same. Join us for a lively discussion of ways to deepen connection with ourselves and our clients to make the world a bit more intimate for those in our spheres of influence.
