At leve helhjertet handler om at gå til livet med udgangspunkt i, at man er noget værd. At kunne vågne om morgenen og tænke: Jeg er god nok - ligegyldigt hvad jeg når, og hvor meget jeg ikke når at gøre i dag. Men vejen til det helhjertede liv er fuld af forhindringer. Vi trækker os, når vi føler os sårbare, eller når vi skammer os, selvom sårbarhed ogskam er følelser, der er fælles for alle mennesker. Vi tvivler på os selv og føler os utilstrækkelige. Så hvad skal vi gøre? Glæden ved at være uperfekt giver ikke de lette svar, men derimod et ærligt indblik i, hvor svært det kan være at gøre sig fri af, hvem vi tror og forestiller os, vi skal være. Brené Brown fortæller i bogen sin egen historie om, hvordan det er muligt at overvinde denne forestilling. Med en inspirerende blanding af personlige beretninger og forskningsresultater viser hun os, hvordan vi inviterer glæden, legen, kreativiteten, taknemmeligheden og kærligheden ind i vores liv. Med andre ord, hvordan vi når frem til det helhjertede liv. Vi skal såmænd bare finde modet til at leve og elske af hele hjertet.

Bogens tema beskrives i indledningen med dette Roosevelt citat: ”Det er ikke kritikeren, der gør en forskel; ikke manden, der påpeger, hvor den stærke mand snubler, eller hvor den, der gør gode gerninger, kunne have gjort dem bedre. Anerkendelsen tilhører manden, som faktisk er i arenaen, hvis ansigt skæmmes af støv, sved og blod; han, som kæmper tappert, som fejler, som kommer til kort igen og igen, for der findes ikke bestræbelser uden fejl og mangler; men han er den, som faktisk kæmper for at udføre gerningen, den, der kender til stor entusiasme, stor hengivelse, som bruger sig selv på en værdig sag, som i bedste tilfælde oplever den store bedrifts triumf og som i værste tilfælde, hvis han fejler, i det mindste fejler, mens han vover meget. . . .”Alle mennesker har problemer med sårbarhed og det ligger i tiden, at det er noget, det er bedst at undgå, men, som det fremgår af citatet, så lever man ikke fuldt og helt, før man kaster sig ud i det.Brown opstiller10 retningslinjer for et autentisk liv. F.eks.:At give slip på, hvad andre tænker.Opdyrke taknemmelighed At give slip på knaphed/mangel, Hun gennemgår og afliver forskellige myter om sårbarhed: ”Sårbarhed er svaghed”. ”Vi kan klare os alene.” ”Tillid kommer før sårbarhed”Hun beskriver sammenhængen med skam og anviser metoder til at begrænse dens indflydelse. Angsten for latterliggørelse er den mest udbredte bremse på kreativitet. Skam stortrives gennem hemmeligholdelse og modvirkes af empati. Skam er forskelligt for mænd og kvinder og forstærkes af stereotype kønsrollemønstre. Hun gennemgår derudover de mange måder, hvorpå vi forsøger at værne os mod sårbarhed. Hun anviser nye veje til at rehumanisere uddannelse og arbejdesliv. Og vier et afsnit til forældrerollen.Bogen blev en bestseller i USA og er siden udgivelsen i september 2012 forblevet blandt de bedst sælgende bøger på Amazon.

Brought to you by Penguin.In her latest book, five-time #1 New York Times bestselling author Dr Brene Brown, writes, "e;If we want to find the way back to ourselves and each other, we need language and the grounded confidence to both tell our stories, and to be stewards of the stories that we hear. This is the framework for meaningful connection."e;In Atlas of the Heart, Brown takes us on a journey through 87 of the emotions and experiences that define what it means to be human. As she maps the necessary skills and lays out an actionable framework for meaningful connection, she gives us the language and tools to access a universe of new choices and second chances - a universe where we can share and steward the stories of our bravest and most heart-breaking moments with one another in a way that builds connection.Over the past two decades, Brown's extensive research into the experiences that make us who we are has shaped the cultural conversation and helped define what it means to be courageous with our lives. Atlas of the Heart draws on this research, as well as Brown's singular skills as a researcher/storyteller, to lay out an invaluable, research-based framework that shows us that naming an experience doesn't give the experience more power, it gives us the power of understanding, meaning and choice.Brown shares, "e;I want this to be an atlas for all of us, because I believe that, with an adventurous heart and the right maps, we can travel anywhere and never fear losing ourselves. Even when we have no idea where we are."e;(c) Brene Brown 2021 (P) Penguin Audio 2021

**Now on Netflix as The Call to Courage**Every time we are introduced to someone new, try to be creative, or start a difficult conversation, we take a risk. We feel uncertain and exposed. We feel vulnerable. Most of us try to fight those feelings - we strive to appear perfect.In a powerful new vision Dr Bren 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.

Over the past seven years, she found that leaders in organisations ranging from small entrepreneurial start-ups and family-owned businesses to non-profits, civic organisations and Fortune 50 companies, are asking the same questions: How do you cultivate braver, more daring leaders?

Vi har brug for ledere med en stærk ryg, en åben front og et vildt hjerte. Vores tid kalder på modige ledere, der tør tage livtag med sårbarheden, udleve deres værdier, styrke tilliden og rejse sig stærkt igen efter nederlag. I Mod til at lede viser psykolog og forsker Brené Brown, at ledelse ikke handler om titler, status eller magt – det handler om modet til at se og udvikle potentialet i andre. Det kræver modige organisationer, der med tydelighed og ærlighed udvikler ledere, der leder gennem menneskelige relationer og empati. Dristige ledere med selvindsigt, der knytter bånd til de mennesker, de er ledere for. Med Brené Browns ord: ledere med en stærk ryg, en åben front og et vildt hjerte. Vil du være med i en ledelsesrevolution? Mod smitter. Med Mod til at lede har Brené Brown startet en verdensomspændende debat om, hvordan vi lægger ledelsesflosklerne bag os og leder med mod, hjerte og integritet. Bogen er til dig, der tør trodse usikkerheden og ønsker at gøre en forskel gennem ledelse – sammen med andre. "Jeg har altid ment, at i en verden fuld af kritikere, kynikere og frygtspredere er det en revolutionerende handling at smide rustningen og tage livtag med sårbarheden, udleve sine værdier, dyrke tilliden med et åbent hjerte og lære at komme stærkt igen for at genvinde retten til at skrive sin egen historie. Mod er oprør.

HELLO SUNSHINE BOOK CLUB PICK';True belonging doesn't require us to change who we are. It requires us to be who we are.' Social scientist Brene Brown, PhD, LMSW, has sparked a global conversation about the experiences that bring meaning to our livesexperiences of courage, vulnerability, love, belonging, shame, and empathy. In Braving the Wilderness, Brown redefines what it means to truly belong in an age of increased polarization. With her trademark mix of research, storytelling, and honesty, Brown will again change the cultural conversation while mapping a clear path to true belonging. Brown 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. 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. But in a culture that's rife with perfectionism and pleasing, and with the erosion of civility, it's easy to stay quiet, hide in our ideological bunkers, or fit in rather than show up as our true selves and brave the wilderness of uncertainty and criticism. But true belonging is not something we negotiate or accomplish with others; it's a daily practice that demands integrity and authenticity. It's a personal commitment that we carry in our hearts.' Brown offers us the clarity and courage we need to find our way back to ourselves and to each other. And that path cuts right through the wilderness. Brown writes, ';The wilderness is an untamed, unpredictable place of solitude and searching. It is a place as dangerous as it is breathtaking, a place as sought after as it is feared. But it turns out to be the place of true belonging, and it's the bravest and most sacred place you will ever stand.'

OM VEKSELVIRKNINGEN MELLEM MOD OG FRYGT, STYRKE OG SVAGHED, ENSOMHED OG SAMHØRIGHED,OVERFLADE OG DYBDE. Det moderne livs vrimmel trækker os væk fra hinanden og det fælles. Af frygt for at stå helt alene – ensomme og sårbare – tør vi ikke vise vores sande ansigt. Brené Brown opfordrer os til at gå den modsatte vej: Vi skal rykke tættere sammen og stå ved os selv. Bruge tid sammen med mennesker, der ikke er som os. Lytte, deltage i de svære samtaler, opsøge glæden og være nysgerrige i stedet for at låse os fast i forsvarsposition. Det kræver mod og tillid. Vi må turde holde fast i egne overbevisninger uden at grave grøfter og lære at være til stede over for andre uden at glemme os selv. Det kan indimellem føles som at stå alene i vildmarken. Brené Brown fortæller en til tider dybt personlig historie om at lære at stå fast og være tro mod sig selv. Om at indse, at man hører til alle steder og ingen steder. Og om undervejs at opdage styrken i fællesskabet. Budskabet er, at vi kan finde modet til at bevæge os ud i vildmarken og stå der som dem, vi er.

#1NEW YORK TIMESBESTSELLER *; When we deny our stories, they define us. When we own our stories, we get to write the ending. Don't miss the hourlong Netflix specialBrene Brown: The Call to Courage! Social scientist Brene Brown has ignited a global conversation on courage, vulnerability, shame, and worthiness. Her pioneering work uncovered a profound truth: Vulnerabilitythe willingness to show up and be seen with no guarantee of outcomeis the only path to more love, belonging, creativity, and joy. But living a brave life is not always easy: We are, inevitably, going to stumble and fall. It is the rise from falling that Brown takes as her subject in Rising Strong. As a grounded theory researcher, Brown has listened as a range of peoplefrom leaders in Fortune 500 companies and the military to artists, couples in long-term relationships, teachers, and parentsshared their stories of being brave, falling, and getting back up. She asked herself, What do these people with strong and loving relationships, leaders nurturing creativity, artists pushing innovation, and clergy walking with people through faith and mystery have in common? The answer was clear: They recognize the power of emotion and they're not afraid to lean in to discomfort. Walking into our stories of hurt can feel dangerous. But the process of regaining our footing in the midst of struggle is where our courage is tested and our values are forged. Our stories of struggle can be big ones, like the loss of a job or the end of a relationship, or smaller ones, like a conflict with a friend or colleague. Regardless of magnitude or circumstance, the rising strong process is the same: We reckon with our emotions and get curious about what we're feeling; we rumble with our stories until we get to a place of truth; and we live this process, every day, until it becomes a practice and creates nothing short of a revolution in our lives. Rising strong after a fall is how we cultivate wholeheartedness. It's the process, Brown writes, that teaches us the most about who we are.ONE OF GREATER GOOD'S FAVORITE BOOKS OF THE YEAR';[Brene Brown's] research and work have given us a new vocabulary, a way to talk with each other about the ideas and feelings and fears we've all had but haven't quite known how to articulate. . . .

#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER • Brené Brown has taught us what it means to dare greatly, rise strong, and brave the wilderness. Now, based on new research conducted with leaders, change makers, and culture shifters, she's showing us how to put those ideas into practice so we can step up and lead.Don't miss the hourlong Netflix special Brené Brown: The Call to Courage! NAMED ONE OF THE BEST BOOKS OF THE YEAR BY BLOOMBERG Leadership is not about titles, status, and wielding power. A leader is anyone who takes responsibility for recognizing the potential in people and ideas, and has the courage to develop that potential. When we dare to lead, we don't pretend to have the right answers; we stay curious and ask the right questions. We don't see power as finite and hoard it; we know that power becomes infinite when we share it with others. We don't avoid difficult conversations and situations; we lean into vulnerability when it's necessary to do good work. But daring leadership in a culture defined by scarcity, fear, and uncertainty requires skill-building around traits that are deeply and uniquely human. The irony is that we're choosing not to invest in developing the hearts and minds of leaders at the exact same time as we're scrambling to figure out what we have to offer that machines and AI can't do better and faster. What can we do better? Empathy, connection, and courage, to start. Four-time #1 New York Times bestselling author Brené Brown has spent the past two decades studying the emotions and experiences that give meaning to our lives, and the past seven years working with transformative leaders and teams spanning the globe. She found that leaders in organizations ranging from small entrepreneurial startups and family-owned businesses to nonprofits, civic organizations, and Fortune 50 companies all ask the same question: How do you cultivate braver, more daring leaders, and how do you embed the value of courage in your culture? In this new book, Brown uses research, stories, and examples to answer these questions in the no-BS style that millions of readers have come to expect and love. Brown writes, "One of the most important findings of my career is that daring leadership is a collection of four skill sets that are 100 percent teachable, observable, and measurable. It's learning and unlearning that requires brave work, tough conversations, and showing up with your whole heart. Easy? No. Because choosing courage over comfort is not always our default. Worth it? Always. We want to be brave with our lives and our work. It's why we're here."Whether you've read Daring Greatly and Rising Strong or you're new to Brené Brown's work, this book is for anyone who wants to step up and into brave leadership.
