The courage to be yourself

In this New York Times bestseller, Brené Brown urges you to be who you truly are in this great quest for true belonging.

Acclaimed social scientist, doctor, professor, and mother Brené Brown has redefined many certainties by discussing important topics such as shame, imperfection, failure, and courage in her bestselling books, TED Talks, and Netflix documentary. The courage to be yourself is no different.

Brené Brown now discusses and attempts to alert us to how we have become a society of outsiders, confined to ideological bunkers. The Courage to Be Yourself highlights the profound spiritual crisis of disconnection we are facing and introduces four practices capable of leading us to true belonging. These practices are so powerful that they challenge everything we believe about ourselves and others.

According to Brené, to find true belonging, one must face the wilderness, a wild and unpredictable place of solitude and searching. For the author, traversing the wilderness means facing the period of doubt, insecurity, and discomfort that immediately follows challenging preconceived notions or venturing outside one's comfort zone.

Through real stories, her own experiences, and scientific research, Brené Brown offers us in The Courage to Be Yourself the clarity and courage necessary to find our way back to ourselves and to each other.

Brené Brown once again brings fluid writing, grounded data, and a wealth of honesty to The Courage to Be Yourself to address a serious conversation about understanding and acceptance, captivating both old and new readers along the way.
