I read this book as part of a book club, and I have to admit that I was skeptical going in. I seldom read self-help books. However, I had seen Brene Borwn's Ted Talk and been impressed by what she had to say.
This book really inspired me. I found myself not only receiving insight from Brown, but also thinking of specific changes that I wanted to make (and am now making) as a result. I'm very happy we read it.

An amazing book about vulnerability, shame, and how to dare greatly in many aspects of life.
She literally deconstructs how shame affects us and the consequences of it's effects. She builds a strong foundation of how to be vulnerable and explains why it is so important to be vulnerable. By bring vulnerable, this is when you can dare greatly in life and feel good about yourself and what you accomplish. She touches on Living Wholeheartedly, which I want to read more about this.
This isn't your typical self help book. This is a book that contains great info and tips that you can embrace while keeping the book on your shelf for future reference. I tabbed parts and quotes I thought were important, I enjoyed this so much.
Highly recommend!

I’m a sucker for nonfiction. I’m an even bigger sucker for nonfiction self-help books. This book challenged me and that is what I hope for with any book. A must-read.
Very good concepts outlined, most everything can be applicable to anyone’s life.
Although a bit repetitive in parts, overall I felt it was a useful & good read. I think most of us fear being vulnerable and guard our hearts to a fault. I love the lessons in being wholehearted in our actions & relationships. I walked away with some new truths in how i approach relationships, teaching, & parenting. It was especially enlightening in how we are shamed & shame others...and the damage it creates. A good read for the end of the year and lessons to bring into the new one.
