What if courage, besides meaning “heroic,” also means “vulnerable”?

Brene Brown, in her book The Gifts of Imperfection, reminds us that the Latin root of courage is “heart.” Courage, then, is showing your heart. Sometimes that means bravery; sometimes that means vulnerability.

Some would still describe this as weakness. But true vulnerability is what connects people.

Will you be courageous today, meaning: Will you be vulnerable?

Will you show and share your heart?
