Decompress #8, Embracing vulnerability Anthony Back

Reporters seem quite interested in the moments when a clinician’s sense of invulnerability is ‘shattered’. The New York Times Daily podcast made much of this today. But I see the whole issue quite differently. You don’t have to protect your so-called ‘invulnerability’—it’s not a shield. And vulnerability is not a black-and-white, yes-or-no matter. The truth of it runs much deeper. You can get a taste of what i mean in today’s podcast. You might even feel stronger, shield aside.
