While this armor shows our strength, it can sometimes block the connections vital for growth, especially in our careers. Embracing vulnerability, however, fosters trust and collaboration, leading to greater success.
We often rely on past experiences to protect us, creating a metaphorical armor. While this armor symbolizes strength, it can sometimes block the connections vital for our growth, especially in our professional lives.
