  3. Sustaining the Soul • Dr. Brené Brown • University Graduate College of Social Work • Featured Guest on Oprah’s Super Soul Sundays, Viral YouTube and TED Speaker with over 10 million views, New York Times Best Seller. • “How do we learn to embrace our vulnerabilities and imperfections so that we can engage in our lives from a place of authenticity and worthiness?” • “How do we cultivate the courage, compassion, and connection that we need to recognize that we are enough – that we are worthy of love, belonging, and joy?”

  4. “VULNERABILITY is the birthplace of love, belonging, joy, courage, empathy, and creativity. It is the source of hope, empathy, accountability, and authenticity. If we want greater clarity in our purpose or deeper and more meaningful spiritual lives, vulnerability is the path.” -Dr. Brené Brown

  5. “SHAME is the intensely painful feeling or experience of believing we are flawed and therefore unworthy of acceptance and belonging.” -Dr. Brené Brown

  6. Group Discussion “Vulnerability is the birthplace of innovation, creativity and change.” ― Brené Brown

  10. “To love someone fiercely, to believe in something with your whole heart, to celebrate a fleeting moment in time, to fully engage in a life that doesn’t come with guarantees – these are risks that involve vulnerability and often pain. But, I’m learning that recognizing and leaning into the discomfort of vulnerability teaches us how to live with joy, gratitude and grace.” - Dr. Brené Brown
