Episode Overview
- Vulnerability isn't about oversharing but mutual trust and connection
- Emphasising the significance of trust and the small, everyday moments that contribute to building or eroding it

- Encouraging intentional, gradual investment in trust
- Challenging the misconception that oversharing fosters connection, advocating for the cultivation of trust and the gradual sharing of one's story
This myth was a big one for me because I used to think oversharing is the best way to get a connection. But as I'm reading this book, I'm learning, oh, OK, you don't have to share everything with people. You need to build trust first and foremost. And then slowly by slowly, you can be able to share one marble at a time.
Ever thought vulnerability was just about spilling your guts? Think again. In this engaging episode of 'Today's African Mom Podcast', Mrs. D, a counseling psychologist and reproductive health trainer, flips the script on what it means to be truly open. Inspired by Brene Brown's wisdom, Mrs. D dives into the delicate dance of trust and vulnerability in relationships. She argues that true connection isn't about oversharing but about mutual trust built through small, everyday moments.
Disengagement, she warns, can quietly erode these bonds, creating deep-seated fears and subtle betrayals. With her characteristic blend of empathy and expertise, Mrs. D encourages listeners to invest intentionally in their relationships. By gradually sharing their stories and fostering trust, she believes that anyone can build meaningful, authentic connections. Whether you're navigating the complexities of motherhood or simply looking to strengthen your relationships, this episode offers practical advice and heartfelt insights that resonate deeply.
