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!

More quotes by Brené Brown
Let ourselves be seen, deeply seen, vulnerably seen, to love with our whole hearts, even though there's no guarantee... to practice gratitude and joy in those moments of terror, to be this vulnerable means that we’re alive.
Brené Brown
It was scary. But it was so liberating. I thought, This is not predetermined - I get to choose. There are some days where I have to choose five times in a day. I had to make a choice when you called and the phone rang, whether I'm going to show up and be me, or whether I'm going to say what I think I'm supposed to say and get off the phone.
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
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
Mindfully practicing authenticity during our most soul-searching struggles is how we invite grace, joy and gratitude into our lives.
Brené Brown
Sufficiency isn't two steps up from poverty or one step short of abundance. It isn't a measure of barely enough or more than enough. Sufficiency isn't an amount at all. It is an experience, a context we generate, a declaration, a knowing that there is enough, and that we are enough.
Brené Brown
Daring to set boundaries is about having the courage to love ourselves, even when we risk disappointing others.
Brené Brown
We cannot grow when we are in shame, and we can't use shame to change ourselves or others.
Brené Brown
The difficult thing is that vulnerability is the first thing I look for in you and the last thing I'm willing to show you. In you, it's courage and daring. In me, it's weakness.
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
A good life happens when you stop and are grateful for the ordinary moments that so many of us just steamroll over to try to find those extraordinary moments.
Brené Brown
We cannot selectively numb emotions, when we numb the painful emotions, we also numb the positive emotions.
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
Trust is a product of vulnerability that grows over time and requires work, attention, and full engagement.
Brené Brown
Let go of who you think you're supposed to be and embrace who you are.
Brené Brown
People may call what happens at midlife 'a crisis,' but it's not. It's an unraveling - a time when you feel a desperate pull to live the life you want to live, not the one you're 'supposed' to live. The unraveling is a time when you are challenged by the universe to let go of who you think you are supposed to be and to embrace who you are.
Brené Brown
If you own this story you get to write the ending.

Connection gives purpose and meaning to our lives.
Brené Brown
Vulnerability is the absolute heartbeat of innovation and creativity. There can be zero innovation without vulnerability.
Brené Brown
I've found what makes children happy doesn't always prepare them to be courageous, engaged adults.
