In this interactive workshop we will explore how embracing vulnerability supports living bravely, showing up and being seen, based on the research of Dr. Brené Brown.

Dr. Brené Brown, Ph.D. LMSW, is a research professor at the University of Houston Graduate College of Social Work. She has spent the past twelve years studying vulnerability, courage, worthiness, and shame. She is the author of The Gifts of Imperfection, Daring Greatly and Rising Strong.

In the first part of the workshop we will focus on the metaphor of “stepping into the arena of your life”. You’ll discover what vulnerability means and how your relationship with vulnerability impacts where and how you show up in your life.

In the second part we focus on what you need to step into the arena. We explore shame, empathy, clarity of values and support.

Are you ready to dare greatly? Then this workshop is for you!

Ann Daniels loves to fail forward and to go on intensive learning journeys. This has lead her to become a Certified Professional Co-active Coach, a Certified Daring Way Facilitator and one of the founders of The Fail Forward movement. Her life mission is to empower people to unlock their full potential.

In order to get where she is now, Ann had to forget most of what she learned in school and at university because it triggered her perfectionism and got her into burn-out at 27. This was her biggest failure till now and it pushed her to embrace vulnerability as courage, to realize that perfectionism is actually a way of shielding vulnerability, and to see failing as part of learning and playing big with and in life.
