   Books Read in 2018 (2,671) Mo's Reading List (177) Keine aktuelle Diskussion zu diesem Buch.  jj24 | May 27, 2024 |   Brene Brown is a household name. Like millions of others, I adored her TED talk and her Netflix talk - and every other talk I've ever seen her give. RISING STRONG is the first book I picked up by her, and I settled in expecting to walk away with some incredible nuggets of wisdom, information, and insight. Unfortunately, that didn't happen. While Brown writes with honesty and vulnerability, she comes across as surprisingly unlikeable in this book: self-centred, self-indulgent and haughty, with a chip on her shoulder. She attempts to explain this behaviour through numerous stories, but I still came away thinking this wasn't a person I'd want to sit down and have coffee with. And that, more than anything else, really surprised me. I'll try another of Brown's books at some point, but I'm in no hurry to dive into her backlist. (  ) Elizabeth_Cooper | Oct 27, 2023 | As I study loss in relation to life transitions for my own book, I encounter many writers who share insight and wisdom. While much of what Brené says is not completely new, her approach is singularly refreshing. This is especially so for Rising Strong as she unfolds personal experiences to illustrate her research. She is relatable and occasionally raw in the way that makes me know she is real. Yes, I laughed out loud as she shouted, "Holy shit!" Context is crucial. Here's another library book that I must now replace with a personal copy. Happy dilemma. January 2021: Grounding and affirming and as wise and timely as the first read.

HTML:#1 NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER When we deny our stories, they define us. When we own our stories, we get to write the ending. Dont miss the five-part HBO Max docuseries Bren Brown: Atlas of the Heart! Social scientist Bren Brown has ignited a global conversation on courage, vulnerability, shame, and worthiness. Her pioneering work uncovered a profound truth: Vulnerabilitythe willingness to show up and be seen with no guarantee of outcomeis 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. As a grounded theory researcher, Brown has listened as a range of peoplefrom leaders in Fortune 500 companies and the military to artists, couples in long-term relationships, teachers, and parentsshared their stories of being brave, falling, and getting back up. She asked herself, What do these people with strong and loving relationships, leaders nurturing creativity, artists pushing innovation, and clergy walking with people through faith and mystery have in common? The answer was clear: They recognize the power of emotion and theyre not afraid to lean in to discomfort. Walking into our stories of hurt can feel dangerous. But the process of regaining our footing in the midst of struggle is where our courage is tested and our values are forged. Our stories of struggle can be big ones, like the loss of a job or the end of a relationship, or smaller ones, like a conflict with a friend or colleague. Regardless of magnitude or circumstance, the rising strong process is the same: We reckon with our emotions and get curious about what were feeling; we rumble with our stories until we get to a place of truth; and we live this process, every day, until it becomes a practice and creates nothing short of a revolution in our lives. Rising strong after a fall is how we cultivate wholeheartedness. Its the process, Brown writes, that teaches us the most about who we are. ONE OF GREATER GOODS FAVORITE BOOKS OF THE YEAR [Bren Browns] research and work have given us a new vocabulary, a way to talk with each other about the ideas and feelings and fears weve all had but havent quite known how to articulate. . . . Bren empowers us each to be a little more courageous.The Huffington Post. Keine Bibliotheksbeschreibungen gefunden. |

In her earlier works, Brown references the times in our lives when we will all feel like failures, either personally or professionally. In “Rising Strong” she digs deep into that space between failure and recovery – the “Act 2” as she calls it – because she sees it being glossed over in our culture:
“On a cultural level, I think the absence of honest conversation about the hard work that takes us from lying face down in the arena to rising strong has led to two dangerous outcomes: the propensity to gold plate grit and a badassery deficit…We much prefer stories about falling and rising to be inspirational and sanitized…We like recovery stories to move quickly through the dark so we can get to the sweeping redemptive ending.”
With examples from her research and her own life, Brown outlines several case studies of people who spent a lot of time in “Act 2”, and the strategies they used to do the hard work required to really get back up and go on. She breaks these into three sections: Reckoning (recognizing something is wrong and getting curious about one’s own feelings); Rumble (reality-checking our first response to a problem and digging deeper); and Revolution (fundamentally transforming your story).
As I reviewed my notes from the book I realized that I had probably highlighted more sections in this book alone than I had in many other books combined. The material is completely engaging and her style is honest and authentic. 4 stars.
Thank you to NetGalley and Random House for a galley of this book in exchange for an honest review.
