I Thought It Was Just Me (but It Isn’t)
Making the Journey from “What Will People Think?” to “I Am Enough”
Author: Brené Brown
Overview
Perfection is exhausting. Shame is paralyzing. And the quest to be “good enough” often leaves us disconnected from who we really are. In this liberating work, researcher and bestselling author Brené Brown shines a light on the destructive force of shame and the social expectations that fuel it.
Through powerful research, candid storytelling, and practical strategies, Brown shows us that imperfections are not flaws to hide, but gifts that connect us to one another. Vulnerability is not weakness—it is courage. And when we reclaim authenticity, compassion, and connection, we step into the life we were meant to live.
This groundbreaking book invites readers to exchange shame for resilience, silence for empathy, and self-criticism for the gifts of imperfection.
