If possibilities were a perfume

Posted by Tora

I love how Brene Brown speaks through all her sizzle. And by sizzle I refer to her ongoing transformation — which sounds redundant because a true transformation never ends, does it? If possibilities were a perfume I think she’s gathered some key sexy ingredients. She speaks very clearly about this. Vulnerability? Thank you very much. I’ve never been comfortable with it, and often confused it with betrayal as well.

Before I get too deep, ahem, let’s just say, It’s okay to be you. She did the research. (By “you” I mean in the general sense.)

Classic moment

The camera cuts out at an abrupt 30 seconds, but you get the idea. I got to see one of the most amazing songwriters of, well — ever! How lucky was I??? Billy Steinberg wrote hits like “Alone”, “Like a Virgin”, “I Touch Myself”, “Eternal Flame” — most of which he performed on a lone guitar that day on the Expo stage. Just to give you an idea of his esteemedness, his songs are the stuff that songwriters drool and torture themselves over. Yes, we wanna write songs that sound like that. I got to sing along as he sang “Like a Virgin” and that really made me smile. Then this song. He closed the entire Expo with this one. Brought the house down. I only wish I got a better recording!
