whole hearts.
what keeps you from being courageous?
how can we courageously lean into vulnerability?
“Owning our story can be hard but not nearly as difficult as spending our lives running from it. Embracing our vulnerabilities is risky but not nearly as dangerous as giving up on love and belonging and joy—the experiences that make us the most vulnerable. Only when we are brave enough to explore the darkness will we discover the infinite power of our light.” [Brene Brown]
“I am convinced that the most effective leaders are those who take time to ponder what God is up to in their own lives.
Those who understand their own hearts will be better prepared
to lead.”
[Reggie McNeal]
"Good leadership comes from people who have penetrated their own inner darkness and arrived at the place where we are at one with one another, people who can lead the rest of us to a place of "hidden wholeness" because they have
been there and know the way."
[Parker Palmer]
