More quotes by 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
Perfect and bulletproof are seductive, but they don’t exist in the human experience.
Brené Brown
When the people we love stop paying attention, trust begins to slip away and hurt starts seeping in.
Brené Brown
I can't even think of the right word, but it's not help. It's more like a prerequisite. I think connection is why we're here, it's what gives purpose and meaning to our lives, and belonging is in our DNA. And so tribe and belonging are irreducible needs, like love.
Brené Brown

Wholeheartedness. There are many tenets of Wholeheartedness, but at its very core is vulnerability and worthiness facing uncertainty, exposure, and emotional risks, and knowing that I am enough.
Brené Brown
Our capacity for wholeheartednes s can never be greater than our willingness to be broken-hearted.
Brené Brown
I'm never more courageous than when I'm embracing imperfection, embracing vulnerabilities, and setting boundaries with the people in my life.
Brené Brown
Vulnerability is not weakness.
Brené Brown
If you can't say it to me in front of my kids, don't say it.
Brené Brown
Hope is not an emotion it's a way of thinking or a cognitive process.
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
Compassion is not a virtue -- it is a commitment. It's not something we have or don't have -- it's something we choose to practice.
Brené Brown
It's about showing up. And sometimes I don't do it. I almost always regret it, but sometimes I don't do it. Sometimes I walk into a situation where I'm intimidated and I want to be liked and I want to fit in, and I don't choose authenticity. And it's always pretty miserable.
