Felt like Brene wrote this book directly to me. What a gift to read something that resonates so deeply, and gives you permission to embrace who you are, and challenge yourself to grow to love yourself fully.

Brené's narration in the audiobook is great. Lots of good nuggets here but like most self improvement books there’s a lot of filler. Many of the anecdotes feel superficial, while I’m trying to find joy through imperfection and feelings of shame while the world is BURNING down.
Even though it took almost a year for me to get through, this book is so great. It is full of meaningful and educational insights into how we are and how we can be.

It's interesting and empowering to read your own thoughts and feelings on some concepts put into clear definitions and backed up with research. The idea of living wholeheartedly is one I can agree with and would like to work towards more. Brené Brown usually looks into interesting topics, but her texts are not the smoothest read for me.
Brené Brown...you’re amazing. Thank you for a great read, as always!
As a mental health professional I thoroughly enjoy the research done of the topic at hand and the vulnerability of life’s hardest moments in this book! I loved the integration of the arts and how helpful but exposing they can be! “ to watch us dance is to hear our heart speak” is such a beauty quote I will be taking with me!
