Brené Brown

Atlas of the Heart

Brené Brown

The better we are at naming what we feel, the better we become at finding our way back to ourselves and each other.

Braving the Wilderness

Brené Brown

True belonging is not passive. It is a daily practice of showing up, letting ourselves be seen, and honoring the sacred nature of connection.

Dare to Lead

Brené Brown

You can choose courage, or you can choose comfort, but you cannot choose both.

Daring Greatly

Brené Brown

It is not the critic who counts; not the man who points out how the strong man stumbles, or where the doer of deeds could have done them better. The credit belongs to the man who is actually in the arena, whose face is marred by dust and sweat and blood; who strives valiantly; who errs, who comes short again and again, because there is no effort without error and shortcoming; but who does actually strive to do the deeds; who knows great enthusiasms, the great devotions; who spends himself in a worthy cause; who at the best knows in the end the triumph of high achievement, and who at the worst, if he fails, at least fails while daring greatly." Theodore Roosevelt, 1910

I Thought It Was Just Me (But It Isn't)

Brené Brown

Shame loses its grip when truth finds an empathetic witness.

Rising Strong

Brené Brown

The ending is not written by the fall. It is written by what you are brave enough to reckon with next.

The Gifts of Imperfection

Brené Brown

Wholehearted living begins the moment worthiness stops being a prize and becomes the place you stand.

You Are Your Best Thing

Tarana Burke, Brené Brown

You carry more wisdom than the world has given you credit for. You are not what happened to you — you are everything that happened after. You have always been your best thing.
