More quotes by Brené Brown
Hope is really a thought.
Brené Brown
If you trade your authenticity for safety, you may experience the following: anxiety, depression, eating disorders, addiction, rage, blame, resentment, and inexplicable grief.
Brené Brown
Vulnerability is about showing up and being seen. It's tough to do that when we're terrified about what people might see or think.
Brené Brown
Vulnerability is the cornerstone of confidence.
Brené Brown
Love is a connection that can only be cultivated between two people when it exists within each one of them - we can only love others as much as we love ourselves.
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
Want to be happy? Stop trying to be perfect.
Brené Brown
Shame derives its power from being unspeakable...If we speak shame, it begins to wither. Just the way exposure to light was deadly for the gremlins, language and story bring light to shame and destroy it.
Brené Brown
What makes you vulnerable makes you beautiful.
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
Talk to yourself like you would to someone you love.
Brené Brown
Empathy is the antidote to shame.
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
Then I tell my own story. The two things that people really need to transform is language to understand their experience and to know they're not alone. It's the combination of the researcher-storyteller part.
Brené Brown
One of the most painfully inauthentic ways we show up in our lives sometimes is saying yes when we mean no, and saying no when we mean hell yes.
Brené Brown
We teach what we have to learn. It's been an extraordinary journey that I couldn't have done with not only the research participants but the community, the tribe that we've built of people who are also on this journey.
Brené Brown
Perfect and bulletproof are seductive, but they don’t exist in the human experience.
Brené Brown
Wholehearted living is not like trying to reach a destination. It's like walking toward a star in the sky. We never really 'arrive,' but we certainly know that we're heading in the right direction.
Brené Brown
When the people we love stop paying attention, trust begins to slip away and hurt starts seeping in.
Brené Brown
If you can't say it to me in front of my kids, don't say it.
