Leave behind who you think you are and embrace who you really are.

For over a decade, Brené Brown has held a special place in our hearts. She is both a social scientist and a friend who, when you talk to her, you can be sure that she will tell you the truth, make you laugh, and cry with you. This has now become a movement that began with The Gifts of Imperfection , a book that has sold over two million copies in thirty-five different languages ​​around the world.

What makes this book not just words on a few pages but an effective guide with daily practices is that it includes ten signposts for a fulfilling life. These signposts not only help us understand the practices that will allow us to change our own lives and those of our families, but also allow us to avoid the unattainable and destructive expectations that often block our path.

As Brené writes, “This book invites you to join a true revolution. It is a small, quiet movement that begins when each of us says, ‘My story matters because I matter.’ The word ‘revolution’ may sound like an exaggeration, but in our world, choosing authenticity and a sense of self-worth is the ultimate act of resistance.”

Taking responsibility for our lives is difficult – but not as difficult as constantly trying to avoid it. Embracing our vulnerability is dangerous – but not as dangerous as giving up love, joy and belonging, the experiences that make us completely vulnerable. Only when we find the courage to explore the darkness will we discover the immense power of light within us.
