Being vulnerable means taking some risk and is scary; to me it means opening up, sharing, andexposing your inner self without being sure what may result. I'm not typically a person that putsmyself out there in a way that I'm vulnerable or exposed. I tend to protect myself, to hedge. WhileI'm known to be a 'risk-taker', the risks I take are calculated, well thought out and the potentialconsequences relatively well understood. Being vulnerable is a step beyond that; allowing yourauthentic self to come out. So, to me, being vulnerable is not so much about WHAT you DO, ratherHOW you go about doing it.
