Even to me the issue of stay small, sweet, quiet, and modest sounds like an outdated problem, but the truth is that women still run into those demands whenever we find and use our voices.

More quotes by Brené Brown
Through my research, I found that vulnerability is the glue that holds relationships together. It's the magic sauce.
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
Authenticity is a collection of choices that we have to make every day. It's about the choice to show up and be real. The choice to be honest. The choice to let our true selves be seen.
Brené Brown
Authenticity is also about the courage and the vulnerability to say, Yeah, I'll try it. I feel pretty uncomfortable and I feel a little vulnerable, but I'll try it!
Brené Brown
Perfection is crucial in building an aircraft, a bridge, or a high-speed train. The code and mathematics residing just below the surface of the Internet is also this way. Things are either perfectly right or they will not work. So much of the world we work and live in is based upon being correct, being perfect.
Brené Brown
Connection, the ability to feel connected, is neurobiologically wired, that’s why we’re here!
Brené Brown
Knowledge is important, but only if we're being kind and gentle with ourselves as we work to discover who we are.
Brené Brown
We can’t practice compassion with other people if we can’t treat ourselves kindly.
Brené Brown
Shame cannot survive being spoken. It cannot tolerate having words wrapped around it. What it craves is secrecy, silence, and judgment. If you stay quiet, you stay in a lot of self-judgment.
Brené Brown
I now see how gifts like courage, compassion, and connection only work when they are exercised. Every day.
Brené Brown
We cannot ignore our pain and feel compassion for it at the same time.
Brené Brown
Empathy doesn't require that we have the exact same experiences as the person sharing their story with us...Empathy is connecting with the emotion that someone is experiencing, not the event or the circumstance.
Brené Brown
The universe is not short on wake-up calls. We’re just quick to hit the snooze button.
Brené Brown
We're all so busy chasing the extraordinary that we forget to stop and be grateful for the ordinary.
Brené Brown
I define connection as the energy that exists between people when they feel seen, heard, and valued when they can give and receive without judgment and when they derive sustenance and strength from the relationship.
Brené Brown
I think laughter between people is a holy form of connection, of communion. It's the way you and I look at each other and without words, say, I get exactly what you're saying. And so, it's important to me.
Brené Brown
What we know matters, but who we are matters more. Being rather than knowing requires showing up and letting ourselves be seen. It requires us to dare greatly, to be vulnerable.
Brené Brown
Mindfully practicing authenticity during our most soul-searching struggles is how we invite grace, joy and gratitude into our lives.
Brené Brown
Want to be happy? Stop trying to be perfect.
Brené Brown
How can we embrace rest and play if we've tied our self-worth to what we produce?
