I studied Social work in College and my husband studied mechanical engineering. He could not wrap his head around social sciences. Twenty two years later, we watched Brene’s Netflix special and he got it! Brene’ taught my husband vulnerability! It has changed our lives! Last year for Christmas all he wanted was his own copy of each of her books! He’s read them all numerous times. I wish I could hug her!!!

1. The ability to rumble with vulnerability. Don’t tap out when things get hard, including giving or receiving feedback
2. Learn how to live into our values through behaviors.
3. Build trust
4. Know how to reset and get back up when you fail

Brene Brown is one of my all time favorites...she does the research and presents with such authenticity, heart and humor. I’m so glad you had her on Jimmy!!

The series is amazing. She is such a wonderful influence, especially during these days.

[Shodanza]

I'm so happy you had her on the show! I love her books❤

[lilianaamador]

Brene Brown is amazing. I am reading her book "Rising Strong" along with 9 friends. She leads us to get in touch with our emotions and get curious about them.

Brene' Brown's Braving the Wilderness has been a saving grace for me, especially in these uncertain times.

I absolutely LOVE Brené Brown! I'm so grateful to get a double dose of her inspiration on a weekly basis now in the Dare to Lead podcast AND Unlocking Us podcast. I feel like I fell out of the lucky tree, hit every branch on the way down, and ended up in a pool of cash and Sour Patch kids.

This woman mentioned Townes Van Zandt as her first song, that's so awesome. The most underrated singer songwriter ever!

Those five song picks were just incredible! Love, love, love that she picked Townes.

John Prine/Bonnie Raitt Angels from Montgomery is an amazing choice. I have a tattoo of lyrics from that song.
