Self-awareness and reflection are integral to counselor educators' development, yet necessitate vulnerability that feels scary. This presentation applies Relational-Cultural Theory and Brené Brown's shame scholarship to explore propensities to connect to or disconnect from growth opportunities. Case examples from the presenters' experiences in teaching, supervision, and scholarship will be discussed. Provided handouts outline strategies for increasing connection to one's own vulnerability.
