There is no courage without vulnerability. -Brené Brown 

Over the weekend I read Strong Ground by Brené Brown, one of my favorites! Her Ted Talk is below, as is a recent podcast I listened to last week, and I also share this poem contained in the book. I highly recommend checking out Brené if you’re not familiar with her research and work regarding leadership. Blessings on your week ahead!


Just Beyond Yourself -David Whyte

Just beyond yourself. It’s where you need to be. Half a step into self-forgetting and the rest restored by what you’ll meet. There is a road always beckoning. When you see the two sides of it closing together at that far horizon and deep in the foundations of your own heart at exactly the same time, that’s how you know it’s the road you have to follow. That’s how you know it’s where you have to go. That’s how you know you have to go. That’s how you know. Just beyond yourself, it’s where you need to be.
