What does it take to be secure in our sense of belonging and self-worth? We may hustle to attain this security through achievements, meeting expectations, or repeating affirmations to ourselves - but Dr. Brené Brown's research has shown there is ultimately one obstacle to our sense of worthiness. “Shame is the barrier,” she teaches, “and building shame resilience is how we overcome it.”

Dr. Brown defines spirituality as something not reliant on religion, theology, or dogma - rather, it is a belief in our interconnectedness and in a loving force greater than ourselves. Whether you access the sacred through traditional worship, solitary meditation, communion with nature, or creative pursuits, one thing is clear: Rising strong after falling is a spiritual practice that brings a sense of perspective, meaning, and purpose to our lives.

Social scientist Brené Brown has ignited a global conversation on courage, vulnerability, shame, and worthiness. Her pioneering work uncovered a profound truth: Vulnerability - the willingness to show up and be seen with no guarantee of outcome - is the only path to more love, belonging, creativity, and joy. But living a brave life is not always easy: We are, inevitably, going to stumble and fall. It is the rise from falling that Brown takes as her subject in Rising Strong.

Every day we experience the uncertainty, risks, and emotional exposure that define what it means to be vulnerable or to dare greatly. Based on 12 years of pioneering research, Dr. Brené Brown dispels the cultural myth that vulnerability is weakness and argues that it is, in truth, our most accurate measure of courage. Brown explains how vulnerability is both the core of difficult emotions like fear, grief, and disappointment, and the birthplace of love, belonging, joy, empathy, innovation, and creativity.

Have you ever wondered "Why did I do that?" or "Why can't I just control my behavior?" Others may judge our reactions and think, "What's wrong with that person?" When questioning our emotions, it's easy to place the blame on ourselves; holding ourselves and those around us to an impossible standard. It's time we started asking a different question. Through deeply personal conversations, Oprah Winfrey and renowned brain and trauma expert Dr. Bruce Perry offer a groundbreaking and profound shift from asking “What’s wrong with you?” to “What happened to you?”

In this straightforward handbook, he gives you the tools and advice you need to demolish the slag weighing you down and become the truly unf--ked version of yourself. "Wake up to the miracle you are," he directs. "Here's what you've forgotten: You're a f--king miracle of being." It isn't other people that are standing in your way; it isn't even your circumstances that are blocking your ability to thrive. It's yourself and the negative self-talk you keep telling yourself.

Burnout. Many women in America have experienced it.

Sisters Emily Nagoski, PhD, and Amelia Nagoski, DMA, are here to help end the cycle of feeling overwhelmed and exhausted. Instead of asking us to ignore the very real obstacles and societal pressures that stand between women and well-being, they explain with compassion and optimism what we’re up against - and teach us how to fight back.

Publisher's Summary
Do you want to discover who you are and what you want in life, but find that its unattainable? Do you feel like you’re lacking authenticity and vulnerability when you show up in life? Are you ready to relearn your negative ways of thinking and teach yourself how worthy and extraordinary you are?
If you’re ready to clean wounds and face your internal struggles in a loving way, this guide is written just for you.
Putting your own needs first can feel like a daunting, far-fetched task.
When this happens, we slowly lose sight of who we are and begin to lose our autonomy and confidence.
If you want to pursue things that truly make you happy, you’ve found an incredible resource to do so.
Without being able to fully love yourself, you will be unable to love others.
Plus, you’ll get burnt out a lot quicker because you aren’t taking the time to “fill your own cup.”
Our workbook will provide you with techniques to build this relationship with yourself which in return, will allow you to create healthy relationships with others.
With daily practice and a loving outlook, you’ll see your mind, body, and spirit transform with our scientifically-proven exercises.
Eleanor Miles, Peter Haris, and Philine Haris (all health psychologists from Sussex) published a 2017 article titled, "Self-Affirmation Improves Performance on Tasks Related to Executive Functioning".
In their study, posted in the Journal of Experimental Social Psychology, they prove that self-affirmation “has beneficial effects on health-related behaviors.”
Things like solving tasks and overall motivation improved for those who wrote about what they value most and why.
In this self-love workbook, you’ll discover:
- Why nourishing the relationship with yourself enhances every aspect of your life and the best-kept secrets to achieving this in no time
- How to teach yourself eight powerful practices of loving yourself fully and how these practices change your inner-ecosystem to one of healing and positive energy
- Why having strong mental health is essential and the 9 mindfulness practices you could do that prevent anxiety and assist with healthy habit adoption
- How downloading the five plus essential apps can support your self-love journey and why they are needed to achieve your self-love goals in half the time
- Why lacking authenticity and vulnerability leads to self-harm and the four ways to safely practice becoming fully embodied in your truth without self-sabotaging
- How to determine if you’re lacking internal support through the self-love checklist - over 12 crucial physical and mental signs and examples you could be experiencing unintentionally
- The absolute worst things that could be disconnecting you from your body and the five best practices to recognize yourself again
- How negative and toxic people (including yourself) are limiting your potential and what you need to practice to eliminate these debilitating voices
… and much, much more!
Self-love is not just part of a New Age movement, it is backed by science and crucial for your mental health.
The act of truly loving yourself isn’t easy, but it’s worth it. With our guide, you can start small and learn which strategies work for you.
Maybe you’ll even create some of your own self-love practices in the process.
Your inner-child is cheering you on.

Bad narration
The narration is riddled with mistakes and robotic. It sounded impersonal and perhaps that was the intent. This is the first audio book I've struggled to listen to. At some point she says "exiting" instead of "existing" and you have to pause out of confusion and figure out the mistake and go back to listen again. The audible page flipping; the mispronounciaton of words (e.g. 'difference' pronounced as 'dimfrence'); the uncomfortable and awkward pauses, were all cringe worthy moments. Several times I checked my phone to see if the audio stopped for some reason, but it hadn't, it was just an awkward pause. It really took away from the message of the book because it was such a painful listen. I honestly wish I hadn't opted for this book.

What a great book, worth a listen.
It's simple, really easy to listen to the point, worth the money the only thing I wish they could change the front cover somehow less suicidal that was one of the reasons it put me off buying it but something was telling me to buy it and I'm glad I did.
