The Gifts of Imperfection by Brené Brown
Brené’s first viral (57M views) Ted talk, along with this book, catapulted her from the college campus to the cultural zeitgeist. This is one of those books we like to revisit every couple of years. The direct message of courage and vulnerability – embracing your imperfections and accepting yourself for who you are – is still as relevant as ever. Maybe even more so. We love all things Brené so hearing the content delivered in her friendly Texas accent made us feel as if we were having an intimate conversation with a friend – a wise friend who happens to have decades of research to back up the advice she’s giving you! FYI - She’s also launched an accompanying podcast that goes deeper into the content and a hub of resources for the book on her website.
