Beyond The Surface
Hi everyone, welcome to Beyond The Surface! My name is Betsabel Garcia, but I’m mostly known as Betsy. I’ll be the host of this podcast. I am excited to share this space with you all where we will dismantle different ideas and thoughts through powerful conversations. I hope that through these conversations you will feel more empowered to face life in a much more confident and fulfilling way. Alright, let’s dive right in and go beyond the surface!
Beyond The Surface
Vulnerability and human connection
In this episode we will touch base on the beauty of vulnerability as a way to connect with others. As mentioned in the episode, when we are vulnerable we take our armor off and allow our truest self to shine through, giving others the opportunity to see us for who we are and for self-acceptance to take place. More so, by opening up, others will feel compelled to open up as well. This results in higher levels of fulfillment and satisfaction. Throughout this episode listeners will be moved to view vulnerability as a sign of strength contrary to popular belief and as the vehicle for new opportunities to fall right through. Dare to be vulnerable!
