Remake of Daring Greatly by Jaclyn Purcell

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Brown’s definition of vulnerability really helps you understand the concept on a deeper level. It provides much more detail compared to my definition, but it’s still similar.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Brown's definition of vulnerability is similar to mine, but my definition is much more personal and less analytical.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Brown gives a lot of details about vulnerability and human emotions. It provides more detail then my definition would.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Our definitions are similar, however Brown's definition focuses on the more scientific definition rather than a more human one.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

I feel like Brown is more scientific then I am.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Brown's definition is focused more on the psychologic effect of being vulnerable, while mine is based off of reactions and what I gain/lose.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Browns definition of vulnerability helps you understand on a better level. Our definition is similar, but browns definition focuses on a more scientific concept than other's.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Brown’s is a more broader defintion and mine is more personal to me

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

She says vulnerability is not knowing victory or defeat. You have know and understand the importance of both. I think its your willingness to face your fear with courage.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

I think Brown's definition is about the same as mine. Knowing that life includes the good and bad, victory and defeat, life and death, allows for people to be more vulnerable and live life to the fullest.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

I felt my definition was simpler but still had the same message and meaning.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Browns definition is similar but mines includes more about a personal experience

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Brown’s definition is different from my definition because I believe vulnerability is risk. Brown’s definition is more optimistic and that it relies on self worth and purpose.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

I think mine is more simple and related to me while his is more scientific.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

She thinks vulnerability is not a weakness but a emotional and uncertain risk. While I think vulnerability is almost like a weakness and can be proven in many ways,

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Brown’s definition is more in depth and more about how fear can be involved while my definition is more towards sorrows.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Brown’s definition is more about everyday experiences that push us out of our shells, while mine is more about being emotional and open with people

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Browns in more scientific in the way of life compared to just personality traits

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

When I think of vulnerability I think opening up about something you didn't necessarily want to. Where as his thinks it's understanding the necessity of both.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Browns is more specific than mine and I always though Vulnerability is weakness or a sign of weakness.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Brown’s definition is more in depth and more specific compared to my definition. She mentions the good and the bad while I compare my definition to my personal feelings and thoughts.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Vulnerability is the core of your emotions your true feelings and emotions showing instead of keeping them in.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Browns definition is similar to mine because she compares it to weakness

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Brown’s is more detailed then mine and has better and more specific working of the definition my definition and mine was more of a feeling

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

browns is different from mine because she goes into more depth about it when mine is just saying that i’m vulnerable when opening up to someone

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

brown way of saying it has more tone and more depth in it compared to mines and it shows greater emotions than mines

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Brown believes that vulnerability isn’t a weakness and I think it can be. However we both think vulnerability is a good thing and needs to be shown.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

their definiton is more about the emotions we face everyday while mine is about being weak

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Brown defines vulnerability as the willingness to expose oneself to the possibility of being hurt, which is a necessary part of courage and meaningful living. This definition aligns with the idea that vulnerability involves taking risks and being open to emotional exposure which can be uncomfortable but is essential for personal growth

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Culture typically views vulnerability as a form of weakness. I do not agree because I think it can take a lot of strength for some people to be vulnerable.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Culture can make people feel guilty for having feelings. This can cause them to build a wall of shame in regards to their emotions. This can make it even harder for them to open up in the long run. I agree that culture plays a large role in vulnerability, but it is not an end-all-be-all. People from cultures where showing emotions is seen as weak can learn to be vulnerable.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Our culture makes you feel crappy for being vulnerable. I disagree with this whole heartedly. If you are being vulnerable you are braver then the one who just "bottles things up"

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Our culture often makes people feel hated for having emotions or feelings. We often need to hide them. I disagree, emotions are meant to allow us to communicate properly with each other.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Our culture makes you seem like you cant handle the real world when in reality, its the world that can’t handle you.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Our culture typically views vulnerability in a negative light, especially towards men. There is no good saying about vulnerability within our society, but many against it.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

I feel now our culture either embraces being vulnerable or makes of feel small for opening up.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Our culture typically views vulnerability as a weakness and makes you feel bad about feeling vulnerable. I think people who show vulnerability are strong because a lot of people just bottle it up.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Our culture makes it seem like it’s bad to let out your emotions. People make you feel bad for letting things out. I disagree with this thought. I think if you are vulnerable, then you are a better person then someone who bottles everything up.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Our culture typically views vulnerability in a negative light because a person can’t always be vulnerable. People will always make you feel bad for letting things out even when you might think you are vulnerable.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Our culture typically frowns upon being vulnerable because it’s not always good to show fear. I disagree, I think its ok to be vulnerable because it shows that your human.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Vulnerability is a weakness, yet not being vulnerable makes someone arrogant. I do not agree with this, vulnerability makes us who we are so we should all embrace it.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Our culture makes it seem like vulnerability is a weakness but I don' think it is.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Our culture sees vulnerability as strength because most people are not strong enough to be vulnerable so whoever has the strength to be such is looked at as strong.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

I think vulnerability can lead to a necessary part of life by laying out some challenges for it because if you are vulnerable you don't have to be perfect because everyone has them including flaws so just be you.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Our culture makes vulnerability seem like a weakness, i can disagree because being vulnerable can make you human and give you emotion.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

I think that our culture typically sees vulnerability with weakness. They think that when you become vulnerable, you allow personal attacks to happen, and they don’t like that.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Our cuture views vulnerability as weakness and like we shouldn’t feel anything at all.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

I think most people veiw vulnerability as scary and a bad thing. I kinda agree. Opening up is scary.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Our culture views vulnerability as a negative. It comes off as a weakness and makes you seem like aren’t strong enough to open up and share.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Our culture take vulnerability as a weakness and don’t see it as being courageous or strong at all.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

i feel as if men view vulnerability as weakness because they feel as though they need to "be a man" and not show deep emotion.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

People think that vulnerability is a weakness that people have and it is something that someone does not have a strength in I don’t agree that it is what it means

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

i think they see it as a weakness and i do not agree i think that it’s a very useful skill not a lot of people see that we need

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

They see it as a weakness that should be hidden. I agree that it is a weakness however I think it is good to show a little bit of weakness. It shows that everyone is not happy and put together all of the time and that it’s okay to not be okay. Showing weakness can also lead you to be stronger and braver.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Our culture views vulnarability as showing some sort of werakness or just being weak in general. It makes it hard for people to see the true definition and to do better.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

our culture is views vulnerability as being weak, No I dont agree

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

We k see it as a bad thing and don’t like it at all we take it as a sign of weakness when it can also be a strength

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Courage and vulnerability are connected. You need to go into each situation with both courage and the willingness to engage.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Brown states that we must be courageous to be vulnerable. Vulnerability stems from fear-- fear of judgement. We cannot be vulnerable without courage.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Both vulnerability and courage are closely connected, both are needed to have success.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

They work together. Without vulnerability, courage is fake.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

If you are willing to be vulnerable then that could prove that you have courage in that situation. Courage and vulnerability go together.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Vulnerability requires courage. To find courage you need to be vulnerable. You cannot have one without the other

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Without vulnerability then people won't have courage to do something new. They will stay the same.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Vulnerability and courage work together and Without vulnerability, courage wouldn’t be around.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

They are one in the same, vulnerability is something that takes courage to be, courage is usually driven by something you are vulnerable about

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Brown says we protect ourselves from being vulnerable because we are afraid or disconnected. Brown also says, “We must dare to show up and let ourselves be seen”.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Without being vulnerable people dont have the courage to do things in life such as being relationships or finding out that you like something that you thought you didnt.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Vulnerability and courage work together, as it takes courage to be vulnerable

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Courage allows you to be vulnerable and allows you to know your limits on what to be vulnerable with.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

You need to be vulnerable to have courage, they work together.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Having courage allows you to be vulnerable but with being vulnerable people wont have the courage to do things in life like relationships.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

You need to have a bit of vulnerability to be able to have courage.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

The relationship between vulnerability and courage is that both are confronting your fears, and trying new things. It’s getting the thing done, and letting yourself feel

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Courage to being vulnerable is key and they flip flop in use of helpfulness

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

He says that being vulnerable shows the depth of our courage.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

That Vulnerable can show your courage and it takes courage to be Vulnerable.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Vulnerability and courage piggy back off each other and you need to have on to have the other

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Brown writes that vulnerability can correlate with courage.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Vulnerability and courage are similar because you have to vulnerable to be courages

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

it shows you that being filled with emotion is okay

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

because when your vulnerable you need to have courage

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

because when you are vulnerable you also have to be brave and have a bit of courage.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

You need to be able to show your vulnerability for people to know you have courage because being vulnerable is courageous.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Brown defines vulnrability as “not knowing victory or defeat, its understanding the necessity of both” this coiuld also define courage. You might now win but you do it anyways because its necassary

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Vulnerability is not a weakness its the willingness to engage with our vulnerability that determines our depths of our courage

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

“Vulnerability is the core, the heart, the center, of meaningful human experiences.”

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

If we can share our story with someone who responds with empathy and understanding, shame can't survive.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

“Vulnerability is not knowing victory or defeat, it’s understanding the necessity of both; it’s engaging. It’s being all in

Vulnerability will help lead a meaningful life because being fully engaged will bring you better opportunities along the way.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Vulnerability allows us to process our emotions. If you go to a therapist and lie to them, you're wasting your time. Just like if you live your life with a thick wall around you, you'll never be true to yourself and your emotions. Vulnerability is a key to a strong and meaningful life.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

You need to be open about yourself and when you need help. There is no living if you are bottling things up and holding whatever you have in.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Vulnerability is necessary in leading a meaningful life because if you are never vulnerable you will never have real human connection.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Vulnerability can be a necessary part of leading a meaningful life due to the fact that each day there is something new to tackle. Whether it be the interview you have, or have a speech to say, you need to be vulnerable to be able to do these things well.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

A weakness I agree because it can make you embarrassed

Vulnerability can help you connect with others around you as well as yourself. And it can help you gain more courage within yourself

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC

Vunaralbility is key to live a fufilling life, its alows us to “step back” and look at wahts going on in our lives and what we can do to change it. Without it you could spend your whole life being a misrable old crow.

purcellj9 — 2025-05-08 13:13:50 UTC
