poojagodh 's review for:

You Are Your Best Thing: Vulnerability, Shame Resilience, and the Black Experience by Tarana Burke, Brené Brown

5.0

---

I listened to the audiobook and absolutely loved it. I’ve always enjoyed Brené Brown’s work, but this collaboration with Tarana Burke brought a powerful and necessary intersectional lens to the topic of shame and resilience. The personal stories shared were deeply emotional without being centred on trauma in a negative way, which made them all the more impactful. The balance of vulnerability and strength throughout the book was beautifully handled. A must-listen for anyone interested in understanding shame and resilience through the lens of the Black experience.
