Vulnerability vs Oversharing

[@qmakesithappen]

I love the way you think man, you're far from regular. I know you're going to help so many people with their outlook and perspectives.

I recently overshared something with someone who's a coworker but we went out to lunch on a day off. I had a drink and shared something I felt super embarrassed to share afterwards even though it wasn't anything bad, but just something super personal. I left feeling so upset that I have given up this piece of information to that person and was so afraid they'd tell everyone else, even though I didn't have evidence she's going to do that. I'm going to accept it was nuanced, and that I was trying to be vulnerable and honest with someone as we as humans naturally want to connect. This video was super helpful.

I agree with you! And the visual of the bubbles are such a good idea! We are unique individual... so we have all the colors shaped up differently!

[@EricWen]

Yes!! :). So glad the visual worked for you! It was tricky but super fun to make!

[@NerdsofWisdom]

Yeah, black and white don't quite get there. As a teacher I talk a lot about, every moment is a learning opportunity. What can I learn from this moment now? There is no judgment on right or wrong, just looking for opportunities to grow and do better. Always love hearing your thoughts Eric.

[@EricWen]

Really powerful to be bringing that to your classroom. That’s awesome David. I’m pretty sure I got the black and white view from a couple classrooms of my own. Thanks so much for watching!

[@cassandrabecker3242]

Beautiful insight thank you.

[@maureenw7553]

I like this. Wish I could teach this to my parents. When I overshare it’s because I finally feel heard. I don’t want to repeat this with my kids.

[@littleforfeited]

same. I'm an xNxP and I feel so hyped when someone talks to me until I embarrass myself that's why I try to force myself to calm down.

[@TreyVanCamp]

I get this question alllll the time. Love this and your visuals were great 🙌🏼

[@EricWen]

So glad you saw this one! Thanks so much Trey!!

[@katyanadevy7612]

This is the most comprehensive and easily relatable video about vulnerability ive watched in this app. Thankyou!!

[@beaishere9927]

I loved the animations in this video! Very nice touch!

[@EricWen]

Thank you! :) They were a lot of work but so fun!

[@beaishere9927]

@@EricWen You did an excellent job! Your work paid off!

[@ConnorEckdahl]

Love this one Eric! I think I’ve stated before that I never consider anything in life to be purely black or white - instead, always a shade of grey - but I love your color and varied shape analogy!!! Puts way more of a visual and fun way of looking at things. You get more excited when a new color pops up, or when a new shade occurs. Definitely left me thinking more deeply on this one! Keep on clapping! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼🤲🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼👐🏼👏🏼👏🏼🤚🏼✋🏼🤚🏼👏🏼👏🏼 hahaha Ps. Those graphics for the colors were sweet! AE skills coming in for this one!? 👌🏼😉👍🏼

[@EricWen]

Thanks so much Connor. I really love AE! If I have the time, i hope to use it more and more! So glad this vid made sense to you, put a lot of thought into getting my idea out in a way that was understandable! 😅

[@vashtizerlinda]

[@lauratraas8394]

Love everything about this. The message the colourfull analogy and visuals.

[@AmberCodyWanner]

Always appreciate your thoughts, realness and vulnerability!

[@EricWen]

Thank you so much Amber! Means a lot!

[@danilles.4247]

Thank you so much for sharing this video! It deserves so many more views!

[@CleanwithChristina]

Love your perspective! This is something I’ve been thinking about a lot over the last year specifically... but I think The older I get the more I’m SLOWLY starting to understand this!

[@amadeocelio1061]

Love ure videos : )

[@freedombug11]

Thanks for making this video. I'm gathering information about this because I'm about to start a personal KZbin channel that I'm thinking will tend a lot toward "unburdening" myself of my "secret" vulnerabilities and I'm really concerned that I will make the mistake of oversharing and not striking the right balance. This gives me some food for thought.

[@TheBlueRage]

Had to watch this one. I just posted on your Mar 20, 2020 video of letting viewers know what's going on in my personal life.

[@SKEsthetics]

Awww thanks new sub here ! I love this topic as I am a mom , business owner but also have overcome so much ! Def don’t want to over share but the raw real ness of what I’ve experienced could help others so I love your stance and will incorporate your tips & insight ! Keep up the great work

[@EricWen]

I'm so glad! Excited to see what you cook up!

[@TheKevinShen]

I was literally thinking about this!!! Love the circle analogy! :)

[@EricWen]

😁😁😁

[@inconspicuouscrab3355]

I also like how u use colors to explain things. I just watched video where you visually portray? the cognitive funcitons. I always liked to look at my self and my life as a kaleidoscope or a tapestry or mandala.. you get the idea. And it changes depending on my perspective of the day as you said... well you said something along those lines... cool.

[@GarrettMusic1]

I just found your channel! I love what you are creating here man! I support you :D Love from Sydney, Australia

[@EricWen]

That’s amazing dude! I’m so curious how you found me. Thank you so much for your comment and watching! :)

[@phillipwithstyle]

Woah! Great topic!! I loved this video!

[@justandythings]

Hey! Just found this channel through ACN! Awesome hearing your thoughts. Subscribed for thinking more deeply and changing yourself 💪

[@EricWen]

So excited to have you here my friend! Thank you!!

[@ehJoe]

We are all human given the same emotions, each one as important as the other, it is part of the human recipe

[@EricWen]

Yes, we don’t have to hide as much as we think, and there’s so much more of our story worth loving and embracing!

[@KajoCreativ]

Great video! I would love to see a video on how you edited that!

[@EricWen]

After Effects! With even a simple understanding, you can make some amazing stuff! Would definitely recommend - start with this video and if you make it thru, let me know if you want more! kzbin.info/www/bejne/g6XZaYSmqbyBmMk (This video throws you right in, and it’s overwhelming but you’ll learn so much super quickly from it!)

[@inconspicuouscrab3355]

ok this is gonna be weird but your face would make a really cute Pixar character face.

[@TheGrindPodcast]

Kinda very complex topic lol

[@EricWen]

Life has quite a few of those haha 😅 I still have so much more I wanna say too! :) thanks for watching, hope this video didn’t make it more complex for you! 😬
