Gotta say I like this little bit of writing from Brené Brown:
“I’ve come to this belief that,
if you show me a woman who can sit with a man
in his real vulnerability, in deep fear, and be with him in it,
I will show you a woman who, A, has done her work
and, B, does not derive her power from that man.
“And if you show me a man who can sit with a woman
in deep struggle and vulnerability and not try to fix it,
but just hear her and be with her and hold space for it,
I’ll show you a guy who’s done his work
and a man who doesn’t derive his power
from controlling and fixing everything.”
~ Brené Brown
