Show Up and Let Yourself be Seen

Is vulnerability the same as weakness? "In our culture," teaches Dr. Bren Brown, "we associate vulnerability with emotions we want to avoid such as fear, shame, and uncertainty. Yet we too often lose sight of the fact that vulnerability is also the birthplace of joy, belonging, creativity, authenticity, and love." On The Power of Vulnerability, Dr. Brown offers an invitation and a promisethat when we dare to drop the armor that protects us from feeling vulnerable, we open ourselves to the experiences that bring purpose and meaning to our lives. Here she dispels the cultural myth that vulnerability is weakness and reveals that it is, in truth, our most accurate measure of courage.

"The Power of Vulnerability is a very personal project for me," Bren explains. "This is the first place that all of my work comes together. This audio course draws from all three of my booksit's the culmination of everything I've learned over the past 12 years. I'm very excited to weave it all into a truly comprehensive form that shows what these findings and insights can mean in our lives."

Guidance and Insights for Wholehearted Living

Over the past 12 years, Dr. Bren Brown has interviewed hundreds of people as part of an ongoing study of vulnerability. "The research shows that we try to ward disappointment with a shield of cynicism, disarm shame by numbing ourselves against joy, and circumvent grief by shutting off our willingness to love," explains Dr. Brown. When we become aware of these patterns, she teaches, we begin to become conscious of how much we sacrifice in the name of self-defenseand how much richer our lives become when we open ourselves to vulnerability.

"In my research," Dr. Brown says, "the word I use to describe people who can live from a place of vulnerability is wholehearted." Being wholehearted is a practiceone that we can choose to cultivate through empathy, gratitude, and awareness of our vulnerability armor. Join this engaging and heartfelt teacher on The Power of Vulnerability as she offers profound insights on leaning into the full spectrum of emotionsso we can show up, let ourselves be seen, and truly be all in.

    Can I just say - READ THIS BOOK. No really.

    I hear people rave about Brene Brown and her insights into what so many have tried to put into words, but until reading The Power of Vulnerability, I didn’t totally get the hype. The hype is worthy. Ms. Brown and the Power of Vulnerability should be on everyone’s radar.

    In the writing, Ms. Brown explores some very hard-hitting topics, the ability to empathize, belong, and love.

    This book should be read by all. ( )

    I enjoyed it and learned a lot. It seems though more like a recording of a presentation than the actual book. I think I just need to get a book or two of hers because the topics she talks about are really hard. She is really thought provoking and honest and I love that. ( )

    Some great life lessons and very easy to listen to ( )

    “It’s hard to let go of productivity as self-worth because in this culture, when we meet one another we say ‘what do you do’. Which is code for ‘how important are you’ and ‘do I need to know you?’.”

    Lots of really important things are covered in this audiobook, but it was longer than necessary. It was a live talk so I understand not cutting anything out, but the topics would have had more prominence if it had been shorter. I didn't enjoy the parts about anxiety, it felt like anxiety as a mental health problem was ignored/dismissed.

    On fait tous les jours l'expérience de l'incertitude, du risque et des émotions. Ce sont eux qui définissent la vulnérabilité et la Peur de beaucoup oser.
