Publisher Description
From the acclaimed bestselling author and self-help legend
'She's so good, Brené Brown, at finding the language to articulate collective feeling' Dolly Alderton
'A wonderful book: urgent, essential and fun to read. I couldn't put it down, and it continues to resonate with me' - Seth Godin
Every time we are faced with change, no matter how great or small, we also face risk. We feel uncertain and exposed. We feel vulnerable. Most of us try to fight those feelings - or feel guilt for feeling them in the first place.
In a powerful new vision Dr Brené Brown challenges everything we think we know about vulnerability, and dispels the widely accepted myth that it's a weakness. She argues that, in truth, vulnerability is strength and when we shut ourselves off from vulnerability - from revealing our true selves - we distance ourselves from the experiences that bring purpose and meaning to our lives.
Daring Greatly is the culmination of 12 years of groundbreaking social research, across every area of our lives including home, relationships, work, and parenting. It is an invitation to be courageous; to show up and let ourselves be seen, even when there are no guarantees.
This is vulnerability. This is daring greatly.

Intriguing account of courage
Uncharted terrain that has been neglected so much requires courageous characters to venture down these paths… thankfully this author was daring enough to give it a go. It’s not surprising how much appreciated the response has been to this work considering the subtle and sensitive nature of the complex gamete in this scope. Thanks.
Be courageous
Basically this is a book about courage, being true self and being seen by others. Too often, we hold back, withdrawal or hide ourselves because of hurt, shame or unworthiness. No, we are wired for love and connection. Have learnt something that worth to meditate.
Daring Greatly
What a wonderful book! Simply empowering and filled with sincere connections of life's messy journey! Shame impedes - being brave fills me up just by turning up! I am so hopeful about the future now
