Daring Greatly: How the Courage to Be Vulnerable Transforms the Way We Live, Love, Parent, and Lead by Brené Brown

4.0

I love the title of this book, I love its content, I love the benefits that I have reaped for myself and my relationships from it. As I dove into the pages, I realized I had in fact grown up in a shame-and-blame culture. Worse, I've used those tactics in myself in moments of insecurity. I didn't feel trapped in that knowledge, though; Brene's "ninja moves" for stepping into vulnerability are wonderful. I too am now on this journey of learning that "I can be loved for my vulnerabilities, not despite them." *Note: the one detractor in this book for me was the language. I didn't personally enjoy reading ****, etc every few pages, and I found it distracting.
