The only real reason I rated Daring Greatly slightly less than five stars is because if you've read The Gifts of Imperfection already, this book won't contain too much new information.
Because I read The Gifts of Imperfection right before listening to this book, I recognized some lines and paragraphs that were taken word-for-word from that book to this one. While that's not necessarily a bad thing--sometimes you land on the best way to say something and should stick with it--I felt the repeat of information without new insights a little grating.
I will say that at about 75% of the way through, when Brown focuses more on parenting, the information becomes more focused and actionable. This is a book I'd like to reread before becoming a parent.
It's all still wonderful information! Brown's research will hopefully help the world change.
