Plot Synopsis: Women are naturally divine, loving, nourishing and vulnerable. However, harsh upbringings, heartbreaks and/or social constructs have caused many women to become closed, corrupted and heartless. In a similar sense, many men were raised to only show emotions that exhibit confidence, protection and strength. Vulnerability may or may not have been emphasized or tolerated in their households. Whatever the case may be, the past is causing many loving souls to transform into cold souls. We would like to help everyone (men and women) understand the essentiality of vulnerability. 

There is no need to fear love, trust and vulnerability. Trial and error has taught us three that when you feel vulnerable, accepting and expressing how you feel is essential to relieving internal and external tension. Rejecting the expression of your true emotions (good and bad) is detrimental to your well-being. Ultimately, we have learned that embracing the vulnerable side of yourself is beneficial to you and your relationships with others.
