As she maps the necessary skills and lays out an actionable framework for meaningful connection, she gives us the language and tools to access a universe of new choices and second chances - a universe where we can share and steward the stories of our bravest and most heartbreaking moments with one another in a way that builds connection. Over the past two decades, Brown's extensive research into the experiences that make us who we are has shaped the cultural conversation and helped define what it means to be courageous with our lives. Atlas of the Heart draws on this research, as well as Brown's singular skills as a researcher/storyteller, to lay out an invaluable, research-based framework that shows us that naming an experience doesn't give the experience more power, it gives us the power of understanding, meaning, and choice. Brown shares, "I want this to be an atlas for all of us, because I believe that, with an adventurous heart and the right maps, we can travel anywhere and never fear losing ourselves. Even when we have no idea where we are.""-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C2646697</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C2646697</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Brown, Brené]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 31 Jan 2021 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2646697138</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Mapping Meaningful Connection and the Language of Human Experience</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780399592553/MC.GIF&amp;client=sntpapl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=1266361020</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Gifts of Imperfection]]></title><description><![CDATA["A guide to help readers embrace imperfection and vulnerability so they can live authentically; presents ten guideposts for wholehearted living"-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C2666436</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C2666436</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Brown, Brené]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2020 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2666436138</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle></subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781616499600/MC.GIF&amp;client=sntpapl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=1300235275</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[The Gifts of Imperfection]]></title><link>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C1945559</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C1945559</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Brown, Brené]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Sun, 31 Jan 2010 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/1945559138</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Let Go of Who You Think You&apos;re Supposed to Be and Embrace Who You Are</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781592858491/MC.GIF&amp;client=sntpapl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=430056919</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Strong Ground]]></title><description><![CDATA["Over the past six years, Breńe Brown, along with a global community of coaches and facilitators, has taken more than 150,000 leaders in 45 countries through her Dare to Lead courage-building work. In Strong Ground, Brown shares the lessons from these experiences along with wisdom from other thinkers. This is a vital playbook for everyone from senior leaders developing and executing complex strategies to Gen Z-ers entering and navigating turbulent work environments. It is also an unflinching assessment of what happens when we continue to perpetuate the falsehood that performance and wholeheartedness are mutually exclusive. With equal amounts of optimism and caution about AI, Brown writes, 'I hear a lot of experts trying to soothe people's anxiety about the pace of technological change by offering platitudes like, What makes us human will ensure our relevance. This isdangerous simply because, right now, we're not especially good at what makes us human. We're not hardwired for this level of uncertainty, and many of us feel as if the constant need to self-protect is driving the humanity right out of us. This is why organizational transformation today must foster deep connection, deep thinking, and deep collaboration. We need the courage to lead people in a way that honors and protects the wisdom of the human spirit.' Brown offers a broad assessment of the skill sets and mindsets we need moving forward, including the capacity for respectful and difficult conversations,increased productive urgency and smart prioritization rather than reactivity, and strategic risk-taking, paradoxical thinking, and situational and anticipatory awareness skills. She identifies the toughest skill set as the discipline, humility, and confidence to unlearnand relearn. Brown writes, 'Individuals and organizations are building new muscles. Finding our strong ground--that athletic stance--isthe only thing that can provide both unwavering stability in a maelstrom of uncertainty and a platform for the fast, explosive change that the world is demanding'"-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C2928366</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C2928366</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Brown, Brené]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Fri, 31 Jan 2025 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2928366138</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>The Lessons of Daring Leadership, the Tenacity of Paradox, and the Wisdom of the Human Spirit</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9781984855749/MC.GIF&amp;client=sntpapl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=1535938230</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Braving the Wilderness]]></title><description><![CDATA[A life-changing book that uses new research to challenge old beliefs about belonging.]]></description><link>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C2350173</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C2350173</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Brown, Brené]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2017 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2350173138</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>The Quest for True Belonging and the Courage to Stand Alone</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780812985818/MC.GIF&amp;client=sntpapl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=975023428</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Braving the Wilderness]]></title><description><![CDATA[A life-changing book that uses new research to challenge old beliefs about belonging, from the author of the landmark bestsellers Rising Strong; Daring Greatly; and The Gifts of Imperfection.]]></description><link>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C2356211</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C2356211</guid><category><![CDATA[BOOK_CD]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Brown, Brené]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Tue, 31 Jan 2017 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2356211138</comments><format>BOOK_CD</format><subtitle>The Quest for True Belonging and the Courage to Stand Alone</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780525494881/MC.GIF&amp;client=sntpapl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Dare to Lead]]></title><description><![CDATA[Leadership is not about titles, status, and wielding power. A leader is anyone who takes responsibility for recognizing the potential in people and ideas, and has the courage to develop that potential. When we dare to lead, we don't pretend to have the right answers; we stay curious and ask the right questions. We don't see power as finite and hoard it; we know that power becomes infinite when we share it with others. We don't avoid difficult conversations and situations; we lean into vulnerability when it's necessary to do good work. But daring leadership in a culture defined by scarcity, fear, and uncertainty requires skill-building around traits that are deeply and uniquely human. The irony is that we're choosing not to invest in developing the hearts and minds of leaders at the exact same time as we're scrambling to figure out what we have to offer that machines and AI can't do better and faster. What can we do better? Empathy, connection, and courage, to start. Four-time #1 New York Times bestselling author Brené Brown has spent the past two decades studying the emotions and experiences that give meaning to our lives, and the past seven years working with transformative leaders and teams spanning the globe. She found that leaders in organizations ranging from small entrepreneurial startups and family-owned businesses to nonprofits, civic organizations, and Fortune 50 companies all ask the same question: How do you cultivate braver, more daring leaders, and how do you embed the value of courage in your culture?]]></description><link>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C2426120</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C2426120</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><dc:creator><![CDATA[Brown, Brené]]></dc:creator><pubDate>Wed, 31 Jan 2018 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2426120138</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Brave Work, Tough Conversations, Whole Hearts</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780399592522/MC.GIF&amp;client=sntpapl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=1049575641</image_url></item><item><title><![CDATA[Rising Strong]]></title><description><![CDATA["The physics of vulnerability is simple: If we are brave enough often enough, we will fall.

Tarana Burke, founder of the 'me too.' Movement, texted researcher and writer, Brené Brown, to see if she was free to jump on a call. Brené assumed that Tarana wanted to talk about wallpaper. They had been trading home decorating inspiration boards in their last text conversation so Brené started scrolling to find her latest Pinterest pictures when the phone rang. But it was immediately clear to Brené that the conversation wasn't going to be about wallpaper. Tarana's hello was serious and she hesitated for a bit before saying, "Brené, you know your work affected me so deeply. It's been a huge gift in my life. But as a Black woman, I've sometimes had to feel like I have to contort myself to fit into some of your words. The core of it rings so true for me, but the application has been harder." Brené replied, "I'm so glad we're talking about this. It makes sense to me. Especially in terms of vulnerability. How do you take the armor off in a country where you're not physically or emotionally safe?" Long pause. "That's why I'm calling," said Tarana. "What do you think about a working together on a book about the Black experience with vulnerability and shame resilience?" There was no hesitation. Burke and Brown are the perfect pair to usher in this stark, potent collection of essays on Black shame and healing (and contribute their own introductions to the work). Along with the anthology contributors, they create a space to recognize and process the trauma of white supremacy, a space to be vulnerable and affirm the fullness of Black love and Black life"-- Provided by publisher.]]></description><link>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C2612817</link><guid isPermaLink="true">https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/v2/record/S138C2612817</guid><category><![CDATA[BK]]></category><category><![CDATA[eng]]></category><pubDate>Sun, 31 Jan 2021 00:00:00 GMT</pubDate><comments>https://sppl.bibliocommons.com/item/comment/2612817138</comments><format>BK</format><subtitle>Vulnerability, Shame Resilience, and the Black Experience</subtitle><language>eng</language><image_url>https://secure.syndetics.com/index.aspx?isbn=9780593243626/MC.GIF&amp;client=sntpapl&amp;type=xw12&amp;oclc=1228515023</image_url></item></channel></rss>
