Brené Brown: The Courage to be Vulnerable (Sounds True)

The other day I posted a small clip from this talk over at The Masculine Heart, and now the whole 66 minute interview is available. This is another excellent interview from Sounds True.

With Sounds True, Brené Brown has produced The Power of Vulnerability: Teachings on Authenticity, Courage, and Connection, Men, Women, and Worthiness: The Experience of Shame and the Power of Being Enough, and The Power of Vulnerability Live with Brené Brown: Teachings on Authenticity, Connection, and Courage (a six-week video course).

Brené Brown: The Courage to be Vulnerable

Tuesday, January 29, 2013

Tami Simon speaks with Dr. Brené Brown, a research professor at the University of Houston’s graduate college of social work who has spent the past decade studying vulnerability, courage, authenticity, and shame. Brené is the author of the #1 New York Times bestseller Daring Greatly, and with Sounds True she has created the audio learning course The Power of Vulnerability: Teachings on Authenticity, Courage, and Connection.

They also examine Brené’s research about the qualities that allow someone to live in a wholehearted way. (66 minutes)
