15 Vulnerability; the cornerstone of self-love and deeper relationships.
Manage episode 418314686 series 3545245
Being vulnerable, for most of us, is scary. It can quite literally petrify the knickers off us, for fear of being attacked or ridiculed. But the truth is, without being vulnerable, we limit the depth of our relationships. Our relationship with others, as well as our relationship with ourself.
Being willing to sit with ourself and love ourself in our most vulnerable moments… that takes courage. But when we’re willing to do so, we open the door to a whole new level of self-love. And when we’re willing to get vulnerable with another person, it gives the other person a chance to hold space for us, to show their unconditional love for us, and in doing so, build trust and communication so we can enjoy a far deeper bond.
Today on I Love Me the Podcast, we’ll be talking about this all important V-word… vulnerability. And how vulnerability is our superpower when it comes to establishing long lasting, meaningful relationships.

About me…
My name is Tamra Mercieca and I’ve been studying and teaching self-love worldwide for 20+ years now. In 2011 I launched my online school Getting Naked where I offer programs to help people strip off the stories and childhood conditioning, so they can fall in love with themselves.
While I go by many labels - mumma, wife, tea lover, drummer - professionally I’m known as a Self-Love Therapist, Writer and Women’s Pelvic Health Guide, qualified in over a dozen physical and mental health modalities. I’m the author of two books, have been published in dozens of print and online publications, appeared on TV many times, and love to share the teachings of self-love at yoga and spirituality festivals.
Personally, my journey began when I worked out how to overcome suicidal depression and anxiety (and get off my meds). I then went on to create a ten-session program where I now help others do the same.
