- Vulnerability Is a Choice, Not Weakness — Brené Brown
Vulnerability is not weakness. It's the foundation of courage, creativity, change. Weakness is closing yourself off.
- A Life Demands Your True Self — Brené Brown
We need the courage to live an authentic life, even if others don't like it. Approval is not the same as love.
- Courage Is Born From a Broken Heart — Brené Brown
I've learned that courage is not the absence of fear. Courage is what you do when you're afraid.
- Shame Thrives in Silence — Brené Brown
Shame thrives in silence. When we speak it, when we share it with people we love and trust, shame loses its power over us.
- Shame is Witchcraft — Brené Brown
Shame is the painful feeling that we're not good enough. Vulnerability is the courage to be ourselves despite the risk of rejection.
- The Courage to Be Vulnerable — Brené Brown
Vulnerability is the birthplace of joy, of creativity, of belonging, of love.
