Braving the wilderness
The Quest for True Belonging and the Courage to Stand Alone
Book • 2017
In 'Braving the Wilderness', Brené Brown redefines what it means to truly belong in an age of increased polarization.
She argues that we are experiencing a spiritual crisis of disconnection and introduces four practices of true belonging that challenge common notions about belonging.
Brown emphasizes that true belonging requires believing in and belonging to oneself fully, finding sacredness in both being part of something and standing alone when necessary.
The book is a mix of research, storytelling, and honesty, offering a clear path to true belonging and encouraging readers to brave the wilderness of uncertainty and criticism with integrity and authenticity.
