Notes:
- With her 2010 TED talk on the power of vulnerability (over 18 million views), her bestselling books on the transformative gifts of shame and vulnerability, and her inspiring call for wholehearted living, Brene Brown has changed the cultural conversation. Her work has been embraced by Oprah Winfrey and corporate leaders alike making her a highly sought after public speaker. For Brene, the conversation about vulnerability and shame naturally evolves into a discussion of bravery–its origins, its catalysts, its chemistry. How we are brave. What constitutes bravery. What activates the impulse to be brave. And how to recognize where our own hero’s journey begins–in the depths of failure, disappointment, heartbreak, and grief–and how, once we grapple with our story, we are able to rise from those depths and determine how we want our story will end — Provided by publisher.
- Includes bibliographical references (pages [281]-289) and index.
