We're focusing on her book, Braving the Wilderness, and it's all about belonging. As you said, we're not holding back for this third one. I find it's like they're so dense and they're so rich to discuss, to consider, to reflect upon. And it's been about all these things that we never talk about at work, and maybe a little bit at home. And boy, I mean, these first two shows that we've done, it's been about authenticity, it's been about vulnerability. Oh my gosh, you have thrown such a surprise on myself and all of our listeners, Chad, recommending Brené Brown, who I had no idea existed in this world until you recommended Brené. We can almost have three or four-hour long episodes. There's always way too many clips to include on the show. I think we called it down from about 20 clips today. No, we're taking a look at her latest book called Braving The Wilderness. Well, I mean, we're two thirds through our Brené Brown special, but we haven't given up yet.

She writes, “True belonging requires us to believe in and belong to ourselves so fully that we can find sacredness both in being a part of something and in standing alone when necessary. With her trademark mix of research, storytelling, and honesty, Brown will again change the cultural conversation while mapping a clear path to true belonging.īrown argues that we’re experiencing a spiritual crisis of disconnection, and introduces four practices of true belonging that challenge everything we believe about ourselves and each other.
