Braving the Wilderness: The Quest for True Belonging and theSpirit to Stand Alone

“True belonging doesn’t require us to change who we are. It requires us to be who we are.” Brené Brown, PhD, LMSW has sparked a global conversation about the experiences that bring meaning to our lives—courage, vulnerability, love, belonging, shame, and empathy. In Braving the Wilderness, Brown redefines what it means to truly belong in an age of increased polarization. With her trademark mix of research, storytelling, and honesty, Brown has again mapped out a clear path to true belonging. Brown argues that what we’re experiencing today is a spiritual crisis of disconnection, and introduces four practices of true belonging that challenge everything we believe about ourselves and each other.
