Vulnerability: A Hidden Strength

Engaging in vulnerability presents significant challenges, especially for those unfamiliar with it. While society often promotes the idea that expressing vulnerability is a strength, many struggle to embrace this concept, feeling uncomfortable and even resistant. This internal conflict often stems from deep-seated emotions such as sadness and regret, especially among men, who may feel they cannot share these feelings with friends, colleagues, or family without the fear of burdening them. This leads to the internalization of emotions and an attempt to manage or mask them through other means, such as intense physical training or productivity. Despite efforts like therapy, many find it difficult to unpack these feelings effectively, reinforcing the need for open dialogue and acceptance around vulnerability.
