Brené Brown lecture, “The Power of Vulnerability”, uses years of research to explore and explain vulnerability existing. Brown is a research professor and wrote many books. Brown’s lecture starts with her talking about the long ride of research on the topic of vulnerability. Brown discovers and tells the audience that connection is the purpose in life. People want to connect but shame is the reason which then it becomes disconnection or painful vulnerability. Brown shows that the people who felt the most worthy of connection are the people who have the vulnerability, and the people who believe that they are worthy. Brown calls them the “wholehearted” people, ones who respect themselves, know that they are not perfect, and accepts their vulnerabilities.
