More quotes by Brené Brown
Let go of who you think you should be in order to be who you are. Be imperfect and have compassion for yourself. Connection is the result of authenticity.
Brené Brown
Worrying about scarcity is our culture's version of post-traumatic stress. It happens when we've been through too much, and rather than coming together to heal (which requires vulnerability) we're angry and scared and at each other's throats.
Brené Brown
Imperfections are not inadequacies they are reminders that we're all in this together.
Brené Brown
It’s no longer a question of can I do it. It’s a question of: Do I want to do it?
Brené Brown
We can have courage or we can have comfort, but we cannot have both.
Brené Brown
Many people think of perfectionism as striving to be your best, but it is not about self-improvement it's about earning approval and acceptance.
Brené Brown
I believe that owning our worthiness is the act of acknowledging that we are sacred. Perhaps embracing vulnerability and overcoming numbing is ultimately about the care and feeding of our spirits
Brené Brown
There's no evidence that vulnerabilty is weakness.
Brené Brown
You are imperfect, you are wired for struggle, but you are worthy of love and belonging.
Brené Brown
If we can share our story with someone who responds with empathy and understanding, shame can't survive.
Brené Brown
The question isn't so much Are you parenting the right way? as it is: Are you the adult that you want your child to grow up to be?
Brené Brown
We can talk about courage and love and compassion until we sound like a greeting card store, but unless we're willing to have an honest conversation about what gets in the way of putting these into practice in our daily lives, we will never change. Never, ever.
Brené Brown
We cannot give our children what we don't have. Where we are on our journey of living and loving with our whole hearts is a much stronger indicator of parenting success than anything we can learn from how-to books.
Brené Brown
Through my research, I found that vulnerability is the glue that holds relationships together. It's the magic sauce.
Brené Brown
Authenticity is the daily practice of letting go of who we think we're supposed to be and embracing who we are.
Brené Brown
I don't just want someone who says they love me I want someone who practices that love for me every day.
Brené Brown
Vulnerability is based on mutuality and requires boundaries and trust. It's not oversharing, it's not purging, it's not indiscriminate disclosure, and it's not celebrity-style social media information dumps. Vulnerability is about sharing our feelings and our experiences with people who have earned the right to hear them.
Brené Brown
Vulnerability sounds like truth and feels like courage.
Brené Brown
When you numb your pain you also numb your joy.
Brené Brown
If we don’t allow ourselves to experience joy and love, we will definitely miss out on filling our reservoir with what we need when. . . . hard things happen.
