If you haven’t heard of Brene Brown, you should look up her documentary “Brene Brown: The Call to Courage” for some laughs and solid advice about how to grow into a better version of ourselves by embracing vulnerability. She describes vulnerability as “uncertainty, risk and emotional exposure.” Basically, all those icky feelings you have when you step out of your comfort zone. Yikes! She also says that so many times we make up a story in our head about what someone thinks, or why someone is taking an action then we obsess over it. We keep it inside our head and it hurts our brain and our relationships rather than if we had stepped into that uncomfortable situation and addressed that story.

We are constantly under deadline and our projects are simultaneously both a marathon and a sprint. We all know where we want to end up, but how will we get there?
