Breaking Down Barriers: Embracing Vulnerability and Joy
We lose out on joy when we're afraid of disappointment or failure. It's going to keep us away from doing that right. So we have to be careful that we don't kind of like not let ourselves reach for that joy because we're afraid of what comes.
Ever felt like showing your true self is the hardest thing to do? In this episode of 'The Vegas Therapist', Ryan Wynder tackles the tricky topic of vulnerability. Why are we so scared to open up, and how does this fear rob us of joy? Drawing from Brene Brown's insightful research, Ryan dives into the concept of 'foreboding joy'—the idea that we dampen our happiness to shield ourselves from potential disappointment.
But what if this protective mechanism is actually doing more harm than good? Ryan offers practical advice on how to let go of these fears and truly embrace the joy that's already in our lives. This episode is perfect for anyone who feels trapped by their own walls and is looking for ways to break free and live more authentically.
