The number one New York Times bestseller and TED sensation. 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. But 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 vulnerability is in fact a strength, and when we shut ourselves off from revealing our true selves we grow distanced from the things that bring purpose and meaning to our lives. Daring Greatlyis the culmination of twelve years of groundbreaking social research across the 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. 'Brilliantly insightful. I can't stop thinking about this book.' Gretchen Rubin 'A wonderful book. I couldn't put it down.' Seth Godin

Sammendrag: Bogen undersøger, hvordan modet til at vise sårbarhed kan forandre den måde, vi lever, elsker, opdrager børn og leder på. Med udgangspunkt i omfattende empirisk forskning viser Brené Brown, at nøglen til engagement, kreativitet, innovation og stærke relationer er villigheden til at løbe følelsesmæssige risici og lade sig se, også når udfaldet er usikkert. Hun beskriver begreber som skam, skyld, perfektionisme og "numbing" og giver konkrete strategier til at opbygge skam-resiliens, praktisere empati og skabe kulturer – i familien såvel som på arbejdspladsen – hvor mod og åbenhed kan trives.
