17:45 - "What courage is to me is the ability to tell your story and like who you are in the process of doing that. And that's hard." THANK YOU, BRENE.
Brene Brown, you have given me comfort on my toughest days. Thank you. I loved listening to your audio book. But I love YOUR voice. Please please read your next book yourself and don't give it to another narrator.
I love how she delivers intellectual data in a manner that is both accessible and impactful for spiritual, mental, and sociological well being. It’s amazing how she articulates spiritual truths based on raw, real, time-honored research. Thank you for sharing your hard core qualitative data. It nurtures our personal and collective healing from the tough questions and struggles of every day life.
I like the part where she talks about that even in an environment that many people say is the 'ideal' (a profiting company) can also not be truly the 'ideal'. I really love her talks.
ZephZang, please know that my husband and I, and a lot of our friends, are doing our best to parent beyond our own experience of childhood, and give our young sons the knowledge that while there are boundaries to their behaviour, they are allowed to be sad, angry, confused and frustrated. And that we love them. Things are changing. Glad you survived.
Her ability to take the S accidentally getting cut off on the slide that said shame and rolling with it to the point where it was my favorite part of the speech! What an Icon!
That part about watching shows that shame people, that is something i know to be true.. The people i know who do have great empathy, CANNOT watch shows that shame people
Thank you! I had an ex who watched those shows...and it should have been a red flag. And I have friends who watch that keep things in balance, but they are not the people I discuss politics with...again thank you!
wow! her speeches are wonderful!!!!! the things she says really hit me!!! and i must say im totally surprised to learn the word "shame" could cause such an earthquake in the mind of some people....that's the real shame...not being able to accept a natural, tho painful emotion...a part of life....
No, because anyone who would negate you like that (male or female) is not someone whose energy and presence you should value. Anymore than a woman who thinks she can only "get a guy" by being half of a full human being. Anyone who would ask another to mutilate their true selves is 1)afraid, and 2)not ready to accept THEMselves, much less anyone else. But, better to be alone and whole than in a toxic relationship.
Weird how I have heard same stories by her on different Talks that she has done and all of them are somehow the same but how she gets to the story itself is different and my focus for details and my ability to remember what people said and how they said it drives me crazy here because now makes me feel different about her. Oh well great subjects anyway.
this is a perfect case of sheep leading sheep. Women criticize other women's looks, yet complain when they feel pressured into looking perfect. Men want to be free to have feelings and yet can often be backed into a corner by other men by being weak. Reality is lots of men are attracted to all types of women. And lots of women love men who show vulnerability. Men need to back men up, women need to back women up as well as both sexes being less judgemental of each other.
I am really sorry that you feel like that. Men have scared me often before now, lots of ways, but I know they are not all terrible. I know I have done things I am not proud of but we all do things that are not so good when we are in really difficult situations. We are all just frail creatures doing what we can. Men or women. Let's all give one another a break huh?
I' so sorry to you and all men, that I have dismissed in any area. Yes she is right, in that statement. We have been guilty of "male bashing", some of the time. Completely unwarranted . I will strive to understand myself and my emotions, a whole lot more sympathetically, in this area...thanx j Aus
As a Men, I really feel frightened inside, that is it true, if I accept myself as a human , who don't have to please women, will I end up alone with no women and be labelled as a wussy or commitment phobic or loser because I can't fuck a women,is this video trying to show us that I can live as a humble being who don't have to prove anything to anyone ? If it is true, I will do anything for it.I really wish it to be true.
Nishant Setia so many men feel this way and there are a huge number of men/women supporting the men of the world to finally feel complete totally whole, you're deserve to loved and you desire to love someone without conditions or baggage. You can have and deserve all of that now as long you nake healthy boundries and approach others honesty and kindly
I wish you had also Zhang. I study misandry (man-hating, the opposite of misogyny) and our culture is rife with it. I am sorry for what you've been through, and I understand. I don't know if Starbanana is right about things changing, since I see misandry everywhere, all the time. There are many mens rights groups you might want to investigate. I hope things change - maybe the pendulum will swing back to the middle. Let's hope so.
I wouldn’t misconstrue your judgment of her behavior (calling her shameless) as meaning she actually has no shame. It’s ironic that you calling her shameless, is a shaming technique. Anyone who modifies their body to that degree, seeks so much external validation and significance…has massive shame. It’s acted out differently. It’s sad that you see the exterior, her looks and behavior and don’t look deeper. You’re only seeing the tip of the iceberg. A person who loves themselves, feels worthy, is deeply connected….would never ever modify themselves like she has. If you fully see your worth and value, you don’t feel you have to “fix” the outside and get attention. Getting curious, rather than outright judgement…always gets us closer to the truth of what is going on with another person.
I don't know about your personal convictions, just as I'm sure there are well-meaning "pro-lifers" out there. But neither can backpedal from the toxicity of the regressive so-called "movements" they are associated with. You might be a "nice person" and also be a Republican, but then you are content to ignore the ugliness and bigotry at the core of the Republican party. Which would in fact suggest you are not that nice after all.

Brene Brown, you have given me comfort on my toughest days. Thank you.
I loved listening to your audio book. But I love YOUR voice. Please please read your next book yourself and don't give it to another narrator.
YES! When we do nothing for men & boys, we do nothing for women & girls! 💜
God bless you
Wise words
I always learn something new listening to Brene Brown
I love how she delivers intellectual data in a manner that is both accessible and impactful for spiritual, mental, and sociological well being. It’s amazing how she articulates spiritual truths based
on raw, real, time-honored research.
Thank you for sharing your hard core qualitative data. It nurtures our personal and collective healing from the tough questions and struggles of every day life.
I love her voice, personality and the way she speaks.
I always get so much from Brene's talks ! Thank you 👍
The world needs to hear this every day!!!
Came to here while reading The Gifts of Imperfection by this amazing author
I love this woman so much. Seriously
I like the part where she talks about that even in an environment that many people say is the 'ideal' (a profiting company) can also not be truly the 'ideal'. I really love her talks.
ZephZang, please know that my husband and I, and a lot of our friends, are doing our best to parent beyond our own experience of childhood, and give our young sons the knowledge that while there are boundaries to their behaviour, they are allowed to be sad, angry, confused and frustrated.

Thank you Brene Brown - needed this
This is incredible! Thank you for all your hard work and research.
Brene is absolutely amazing.
I love Brene so much!
Oldie but goodie. Awesome!!!
I found your presentation to be very inspirational and courageous.
Her ability to take the S accidentally getting cut off on the slide that said shame and rolling with it to the point where it was my favorite part of the speech! What an Icon!
It’s So True of the many expectations placed upon Women to do it all & with a smile! We’re shamed for one slip up when we don’t live up to them. 😔
A great talk ! Please listen!
So true “the difference between 30 and 40”
Love your work Brene. You are such an inspiration! Thank you
That part about watching shows that shame people, that is something i know to be true.. The people i know who do have great empathy, CANNOT watch shows that shame people
Thank you! I had an ex who watched those shows...and it should have been a red flag. And I have friends who watch that keep things in balance, but they are not the people I discuss politics with...again thank you!

AWESOME. Thanks for sharing xxx
"The problem is about what gets in the way...it's the struggle for worthiness."
Your comment - Perfect! Thanks.
The hustle for worthiness. Brene Brown
No, because anyone who would negate you like that (male or female) is not someone whose energy and presence you should value. Anymore than a woman who thinks she can only "get a guy" by being half of a full human being.

But, better to be alone and whole than in a toxic relationship.
Good talk
Amazing, love ur talks :)
Male victims of violence are overwhelmingly victimized by other males.
well said. rings true in my experience
12 hours relaxing
I do too!
Weird how I have heard same stories by her on different Talks that she has done and all of them are somehow the same but how she gets to the story itself is different and my focus for details and my ability to remember what people said and how they said it drives me crazy here because now makes me feel different about her.

Sorry for double post - UA-cam error.
anyone here from reading her book?
Dr. Brene, is there a transcript?
Are you familiar with books? Or Google?

In a tiny percentage, yes.
What is cro-magnon?
Gordon Olson prehuman like Neanderthal
Just what I needed. I was in a shit- shame position today.
And I rubbed my nose in it. As though that would help course, it only made it worse.
I wish you had also Zhang. I study misandry (man-hating, the opposite of misogyny) and our culture is rife with it. I am sorry for what you've been through, and I understand.

This is the funniest in the world. 🤣😂
Ownr females are much. Stronger than all men I'm pro matriarch
Does KIm Kardasian has no capacity for human connection, i.e. her shamelessness? Just for example.
I wouldn’t misconstrue your judgment of her behavior (calling her shameless) as meaning she actually has no shame.

Got put down by the boss is ...
I live for feminism an it's cause
thank god that zephzhang guy is done.

I wish she would stop being a comedian and cut to the chase
