VULNERABILITY - The secret to a happy life

Updated: Nov 4, 2024

Hi lovely


Whenever I walk into my local post office, I always feel so seen. They only have to lay eyes on me before heading out back to grab a parcel for me or my hubby. 

I feel known, cared for, and included. The staff takes the time to ask how the family is and follow up on the news from my last visit. I can just be myself with them—they are present, curious, and genuinely care about my life.

I always skip out with my parcels, sometimes a loco love choccie or a random stationery need, feeling lighter and more connected. It reminds me of the hole left in suburb life without the local milk bar on the corner—once a space that likely heard its fair share of neighborhood drama and fulfilled that natural desire to be seen and valued in the community.


I drop into vulnerability so naturally when I enter the post office, and it feels good—their smile and service are so valued.

And I think the secret to a happy life is—VULNERABILITY. But what does that really mean?


It’s those small moments, like feeling known at the post office, where you allow yourself to be open, present, and curious in relationships. It’s about feeling safe enough to show up as yourself—whether with familiar faces or in new connections. Vulnerability isn’t about oversharing or being unguarded; it’s about creating space for genuine connection, where people take the time to really see and hear you, just like those moments at the post office.


When you allow yourself to be vulnerable, you open the door to deeper connection, trust, and understanding. It’s in those simple interactions—where someone remembers your story, where you feel included and cared for—that real magic happens.


Vulnerability liberates us in ways we might not even realize until we experience it.


If you’re craving more of that authenticity and connection in your relationships—whether with a partner, friend, or even yourself—I’m here to support you.

Together, we can cultivate that sense of safety to be vulnerable, and from there, watch as your relationships transform.

Let’s explore it together —because the moment you embrace vulnerability, you unlock the power to transform every relationship, including the one with yourself.


Here's 4 questions to get started with exploring vulnerability - the more conscious and connected you are to it the easier it becomes:

1. What IS VULNERABILITY to you?2. Is being vulnerable and being in relationship with others who can be vulnerable a priority for you and why?3. What does being Vulnerable gift you?4. How comfortable are you from 1-10 being vulnerable?


Comment with your responses, I would love to read your thoughts.


Much love,
